"Maybe it is the stupidity of a social-acceptableness to objectify women to such a degree that we've lost respect for the true power of the Divine feminine - and being out of balance with an overcharged masculinity, our nations driven to rape & pillage the earth, corporate leaders done ill deeds in pursuit of economic dominance, and us all forgotten the gentle, kind, softness a woman has to offer and teach us." Or I would probably add that there are many fierce women who are not exactly "soft"......women are always cast into the "soft" arena, when in reality, many don't even fit this narrow category. It just gets so old. As a woman who has breasts, it just seems so insane to focus on one body part. For fuck's sake, we live in an advanced technological age. For men who are obsessed with breasts, just go out and buy a pair of fake squishy silicone ones at a sex shop. Sleep with them, do whatever you may, but let's get over the objectification for fuck's sake. It's NOT REVOLUTIONARY.

I totally agree you. I do not vote on boobs here. I admire them and as a male I CAN be mesmerized by them, drawn to them, etc. That tends to be psychological too. We tend to be attracted and drawn to things that we don't have that people conceal. There was a time that a woman showing her ankle was alluring as boobs seem to be today. If I were to talk to natives where men and women run around mostly nude (at least topless) they likely don't give much of a thought at all to boobs. What do you think? This is just me speculating. And yes women can be very fierce. My wife was essentially a tom boy. One of my three daughters is a lesbian and proud of it. We are all human. We may be slaves to some psychological drives. This is also one reason I am against banning things. Banning things in my opinion is similar to concealing things. Those things become more alluring for some crazy psychological reason.

I definitely agree with you there brother see you myself personally I was born in Germany and that's why I kinda got shoes on both feet you know them saying mean I grew up the nude beaches the whole shebang I mean it and commercials naked people I'm it really wasn't a big deal. Now moving to the states gotta tell you it when a woman wear some skimpy close I couldn't even imagine the attention she get her she was naked I mean you got and attractive woman walking down the street wearing maybe a short skirt and a tank top and you got 6-7 pedofile sitting right there watching her with binoculars in this country and I just this country I miss the whole world I was some it's unfortunate but that's the way we're heading. Are you just being desensitized to believe in all this nudity and sex and violence and drugs homosexualism ( I know you like that word at just threw together there lol) and drinking is all okay. But quite the opposite on contrary I have a boy he's almost 2 years old now I debated this matter fact for he was even born weather not it would be responsible or would it be irresponsible to even entertain it if bringing a kid into this day in age this too much s*** going on the world that's overcrowded the world is a whole is a freaking mess. But anyways that's here nor there I'll quit rambling on thanks guys

Bringing a child into the world is about survival of more than just you and your gene pool. It is about survival of the species. We WILL always have dark times. That does not mean we should not have children. So I think having a child in this day and age is not only OKAY it is beneficial. All of our children may not make it through various trials in whatever comes with the future, but we must give them a chance to TRY. If we teach them and other people perhaps some of our ideas will survive. Thus, I don't really buy into the DON'T BRING A CHILD INTO THIS MESSED UP WORLD train of thought. I did for awhile, but no longer once I spent some time thinking about the long term consequences of such thoughts. So I am glad you have a 2 year old. I have 6 children and they are all adults. :) (2 of them are mine biologically, and the other 4 I raised as my own)

iwonttell (42) · 8 years ago

You bring up a good valid point butt theoretically let's say that here hundred years into the future governments will be overthrown world is in chaos I mean we can already kind of see the trend of more and more shootings happening at churches schools that kind of stuff. You also see the ratios of children being born with some kind of issues because of the year that we were polluting because of the food that they're throwing all this crap into because of some of the immunizations that are given to babies at such a young age that are necessary at all. And not even mention the fact that the world was scientifically analyzed and found to comfortably live only a third of the people that are on the Earth right now are needed for it to hit its maximum capacity. Yes having children is the most wonderful thing in my life but at what point as a parent once the times get bad enough when there's more shootings once there's people dying in large quantities every day from these incidents is it immature no matter how much you want to have a child to have a child. Because you mark my words that day will come and may not be in my lifetime and may not be in my son's life time but eventually more people than not are going to be with me and what I'm trying to say here the world is heading to a dark place and we're heading there quick.

@iwonttell - [2] - You hit the nesting limit so here is my response. By using an @ symbol and your name I believe it still notifies you of this post in your replies.

I can see your point. I do not see any point where I cease to try to survive, or permit my children to try to survive. No matter how difficult things get it is not the state of the world that would make me choose such a decision. Ultimately, could I teach the child, am I qualified to share ideas that may make them persevere? The key word there is MAY. If I cannot do those things then I probably should wisely choose not to have a child. If I can do those things then I should try no matter how slim the chances may seem to be.

Good post. Also see my other post in this thread. We have lost not only Divine feminity but also Divine masculinity. We have also lost many of the important aspects of masculinity due to industrialization. Industrialization has hurt both feminity and masculinity by making everyone more like robots. Have you read King, Warrior, Magician, Lover? What about Sex at Dawn?

We have a culture of repressed sexuality and over regulation of governments and corporations. Once we get rid of that and return to nature, we can reclaim the true forms of feminity and masculinity.

You are absolutely right in people undervaluing certain feminine traits and that people do not fit stereotypes. Our modern culture is broken and has severe Yin-Yang imbalance. However, my view of this problem is very different from typical feminists. If feminity is undervalued, that means you know things that others don't and that knowledge is power. If you have all the Divine feminine power when the market slowly begin to realize the value in the Yin, you have bought low and now you can sell high and reap all the awards for your patience.

That would be the black swan event few people expect. This is why I seek antifragile feminity and I'm not a fan of the fragility of social justice worriers. One day, the time for truly strong antifragile feminity to shine will come, but for now we have to deal with the bullshit and awkwardness of the current culture. As Terrence McKenna have said, "Culture is not your friend; it is an operating system." Cryptocurrency is a step towards reprogramming society to become more fair.

Well, Steem may be revolutionary, but it is still an upper layer of the Internet that has to respect fundamental principles of the underlying protocol, and as everyone knows ...
The Internet is for porn!

limitless (63) · 8 years ago

I share your concern and I've actually been thinking a lot about this problem for the past few weeks. I've actually almost stopped posting over a month ago when I saw the first few boobs posts. I wanted a platform to discuss deep intellectual ideas.

However then I remembered history. The Internet was also mostly used for porn in its early days and that definitely disappointed the scientists who built it initially, yet it still took off.

Sexual desires is a part of human nature and we are quite repressed in this modern professional society where we cannot express our sexuality for most of the day because we are at work. That is not how humans evolved. We are naturally sexual creatures who bond with each other through sex, so naturally people will gravitate toward sex on an uncensored platform. If sexual content, especially ones from real people who you can connect with, are being upvoted, that means it is what society really desire the most. People crave intimacy and do not receive enough of it in out awkward super technologically advanced culture. Yet technology could be what will eventually fix this.

Steemit is a social experiment to show what is really valuable to society, and that is sex. As much as we pretend to be rational, we are irrational beings controlled by emotions. Only when we lose our ego can we fully realize this and achieve self actualization.

So even though I wasn't too happy that this platform "degenerated" from sophisticated posts about cryptocurrencies to pics of boobs, I'm learning to accept the results. Perhaps boobs add more value to society in a primal way that I'm not good at evaluation. So I should put aside my own ego and believe in the free market.

I'm not one to vote up posts with boobs because (as you so eloquently described), this site has too many boobs already and there are smarter places to get that fix. That said, you got my vote because you write really, really well.

I'm not sure I'd call it "stupid" as much as I'd say we're just primitive. It takes effort to use the thinking side of our brains over the hard-wired reactive side. I agree with you that boobs are pretty awesome. I'm all about women using their strengths just as men do. It's part of their natural power, and I celebrate it. That said, it shouldn't be the only thing we recognize or then we're just part of a larger problem of objectification.

Thanks again for the great post, I really enjoyed it.

I read your other post too regarding a similar matter. And I will say this again. Steem will take time to mature. Everything has to go through a natural evolution. Where so many humans are involved with differing natures, these things are bound to happen

We can only hope that good quality content (be it from a guy or a girl) is rewarded. Thats it. That's all that matters. Good quality content getting the respect it deserves.

stellabelle (75) · 8 years ago

One other thing. Women are not exceptionally divine. There's nothing inherently divine about us. Lots of women are ignorant, just as lots of men are ignorant. Men control more resources on the planet, so we see their flaws expressed more overtly than women as they are more vocal and feel that they have an inborn right to express their desires. Women control the creation of life though. They mostly control reproduction. I believe that this has led to men feeling insecure, thereby they feel like they have to dominant, subvert and grind down women.

mammasitta (70) · 8 years ago (edited)

@stellabelle Some women are exceptionally divine ! I think about the poets , the mediators , our wise grandmothers , the concubines , the list goes on but I would not describe them as "soft" .

limitless (63) · 8 years ago

Soft is not a weakness. This is a lesson I have learned in the past year especially. Often the softer approach is more effective and the unwillingness to accept that is a weakness of many men and many feminists. Nobody is more equal or divine than anyone else. We are all made of stardust.
Free speech and free market will eventually let everyone find fulfillment and happiness in their lives.

I think the purpose of curators is not to rewards boobs or women per se, but increase platform appeal to different audiences, create success stories, increase the attractiveness factor in terms of signups, change the crypto-nerd demographics that are immersed in projects like these, etc etc.

Does this alienate some good content creators that got nothing and start comparing what they don't have compared to what got upvoted? Sure it does. That's why curation needs to be more balanced / rounded.

I was a little irked by the focus on certain things, but over all those that get those great posts get more steem power. More steem power means they get to vote on things as well.

To clarify a bit for those that are new to STEEM I will add this detail.
When STEEM pays out 1 $ worth of rewards (whether from posting, commenting or upvoting) it simply creates the new units "out of thin air". This has the effect of diluting everyone's STEEM holdings since the supply has increased but your personal wallet's balance has not.
The way to protect yourself from this dilution is to Power Up.
What does this do you might be axkin '?
Well, for every 1 $ worth of STEEM created to pay for content & curation there are 9 $ worth of STEEM created to send to those that have powered up.

So you should only hold STEEM if you are planning on selling it, or sending it to someone. Do not hold it for a long time since it is being diluted little by little by everyday's payouts.
Power it up and you will lock in your value.

Hope this helps complement the main post!
