As she explains, to become a woman pirate you have to be a tomboy somehow, because you're fighting against men, under men's rules, and you're so considered as a man. I don't think women pirates could use their charms to seduce men! Unlike pirates' legends and glamour visions (as in movie like "Anne of the Indies" of 1951), women weren't allowed on ships, so they were disguised under masculine clothes as we saw! And I think it was more satisfactory to reveal their identity to alarmed eyes of their defeated opponents!
