I am not sure of the situation today, 2010, however, I distinctly recall a 1994 visit to an Israeli naval base , during which a group I was with boarded one of the Israeli submarines for a brief half hour tour, and all women visitors were asked to remain on the docks due to a strict navy "rule" that forbids women from boarding the vessels. According to the crewman giving us the tour, an officer who had been with the navy for 4 years and operated the sub's sonar system, the reason was purely superstition. Apparently, each time a lady visitor had boarded the sub, some unfortunate occurrence later took place at sea...and they were not taking any more chances
