# introduceyourself AN INTRO AND A QUESTION: DOES STEEMIT ONLY REWARD GIRLS WHO POST ‘TITS AND TRAVEL’ TALES?

 Hello Everybody! Greetings from Australia!   Hi, I’m Kain, and I’ve been researching a book for the past 8 years whilst finding inspiration and enjoying variety by hopping from one location to another during this period. This is the place I now call home:

A bit about myself:  I’ve been sharing the offshoots of my research on Facebook for a number of years now with my aim being to test the power of my ideas with regards to improving and benefiting the lives and well-being of others. However, hoping to focus exclusively on producing my magnum opus I had intended to shut down Facebook so that I would no longer be distracted from pouring all of my accumulated ideas and theses into my book/novel.

 (For those interested in my subject matter? I am attempting many things given that my research has been a journey of discovery unto itself, but what I truly find fascinating are the differences between males and females, their distinctions and distinctive contributions, and how this knowledge can be used to foster true egalitarianism. I also delve deeply into the nature of female-sexuality.)

  As exciting as concentrating on this project is, the downside is that no near end is in sight and that I can expect to continue to exist in abject poverty as I labour tenaciously at it with no guarantee of success on completion. It was at precisely this juncture that a friend turned me onto Steemit!
 

My interest was piqued and I was attracted by the lure of receiving a tangible reward for the first time ever for the task of freely sharing my ideas. So it was that I arrived here eagerly anticipating the fruits of my work as I submitted a few prized pieces of writing. The result? And my opinion of the site thus far? Well, in the spirit of honesty, I am a little underwhelmed - err no, I'll rephrase that to massively underwhelmed! Over the past week the responses I have received from sharing complex, original, investigative, poetical and philoso-psychological pieces containing ideas that have taken decades to arrive at have been dismally few and my earnings stand at a ludicrously low $3.50.

Contrast my output to that of an attractive female's post that is rich in seductive pictures and poses yet poor in meaningful written-content: she has netted over $2000 in under 12 hours; another post by a female which is similar in style has earned $6,500 in under 15 hours. The disparity in my perceived value to theirs is appalling! It appears that travelogue-style posts and blogs which are, symbolically speaking, buoyed on a girl’s breasts attract $$$ that few guys can match!

I am not the only one to notice this inequality in earning potential which hinges more not on whether you write well or have anything substantial to convey but largely on whether you were born with the potential to sprout boobs.

One male replied to this female's thread with what I sensed was outright indignation, "Wow, look how much you earned already!? I wrote a post and got almost nothing." (ph111p) Another male, more bitterly, offered this summation, "Story of my apparently boring life. Plus, I'm not a girl AND I'm not a boy with a makeup tutorial. I'm just a fisherman, chef, musician, who makes tons of worthless original content."(jupiter00000).

However, there's no point in descending into either despair nor recrimination at this being the reality of the situation. The truth is: sex sells! Female beauty is a commodity...and one which the buyer’s market esteems. Those women that exploit this bias in their favour to their advantage have every right to. They are smart...they’ve learned the rules of the game...I take my hat off to them...

Given the indisputable and undeniable effects of birthing into this world through the matrix of a female’s body, coupled with cultural norms which encourage females to dress and act in public with a provocation that was once only a direct invitation to a sexual act in private, the reality is that we exist in a Gynocracy - and one which is here to stay for some time yet. We are now thrust back into "the pagan vastness of female nature," as one of my favourite of female thinkers, Camille Paglia encapsulates it. It is the act of paying homage to feminine-mystique that makes us instinctually ‘vote’ when exposed to a girl’s photo.

Alas, forgive me, I digress, where was I? Ah yes, pondering on the ramifications of posting my finely crafted and time-hungry pieces in a medium where currently respect and recognition and reward is absent.

Interestingly, as my disillusionment with this site continued to grow I received this as a reply to one of my posts: "Keep up the good writing. We need more of the kind of deep philosophical contemplative writing on Steemit. Don't get discouraged about recognition. This is the early days and it is somewhat the Wild West here. The market will start to greatly appreciate this type of more thoughtful writing as we mature, and it will happen sooner than you think!" https://steemit.com/@james212 Which was a refreshing and timely boost of confidence and one which I really did appreciate and which has given me pause.

It is the early days...that is for sure...and there are a large number of remarkable people producing remarkable writings on there. My friend who recommended the site easily among these, www.steemit.com/@rok-sivante . And there are dissenting voices that are also proactive in contributing solutions to this seemingly global phenomenon, "Would Steem fail if every blog post of a lady putting on her makeup is rewarded $26,000?”
This guy actually has some very useful input with regards to improving the platform: https://steemit.com/steemit/@anonymint/improving-steem-s-rankings-to-cater-to-diverse-content-preferences

So, I will be lurking on here for a few weeks as I test this site out and try new angles in an attempt to garner more recognition: I'm booked in for the boob-job Wednesday next week *L*. In all seriousness as this population swells a more discerning audience may yet appear, and tits and travel tales may take their place equally among ponderings and philosophies. And, I can't lie, there ARE men making money with their writings on there also. Only time will tell...
