The chapter explains how whalers of England have to give the head of the whales they kill to the kind and the tail to the queen. Besides being another downgrade for woman because the queen gets the less valuable end it also plays into the idea of whaling being its own society. Like all other cultures/religions it is at one time shut down and kept from making a profit or developing.
(having a really hard time finding meaning in this chapter)(and some others)
