Bikini Girl Votes: A Serious look at a Serious subject

Lately there was a hole lot of noise and arguments on Bikini Votes or rather the amount of votes girls in Bikini's receive. This even led to some well known people leaving the platform, e.g. @sufermarly, which is a pity.

Although the title says this is a serious look, it is rather a light hearted look at Bikini's, and bikini girls receiving up votes. I am just trying to get people to read the post with the title and the photo at the top, looks like it worked because you are reading the post!!

Bikini's don't follow the normal logic. For starters the smaller the bikini, the larger the price tag, normal economics will dictate that the more input material is used to manufacture something, the higher the price should be. Do I hear somebody mumbling that the same goes for bikini girl votes, the smaller the bikini of the girl posting, the higher the pay-out?

Is it the fault of the bikini that it costs more than a normal large bathing-suit? No, it is the fault of the manufacturer and the buying public who is willing to pay the higher mark up!!

Bikinis also cover content!! This content can be rather large - this large content's quality, can be firm or can be a rather sagging affair. Bikinis can also cover small content, this small content can also vary in quality and can sometimes be described as firm and rather perky!! Never mind the size of the content and the specifications of the content, the quality is still in the eye of the beholder. Some people like large content, others like small content, there is a taste for all types of content.

The same goes for steemit, some like long posts, some like short posts, some like arty posts, others again likes travel posts, and others like science and technical posts, some likes crypto posts, and some even like Bikini girl posts. Everybody is entitled to like what he or she wants to like. People then votes for what they like. Is it the fault of the bikini girl if somebody votes for her, even if the content sucks according to some tastes, is it in her control if somebody votes for her content? No it is not. If people wants to blame any body for votes received, blame the voter giving the votes.

Some people think that it is unfair if certain people gets large payouts, because their content is perceived as inferior and because they are a girl in a small outfit, perhaps it is just a case of envy or jealousy because they get more money than others, somebody must have liked the post and voted for it, in order to generate the large pay-out.

Can the same not be said for some high ranked bloggers, I think if some of them post, a post that is empty on the inside they will still have a $100 plus post, you can see for yourself what the difference is in the number of views compared to the number of votes. (This can be explained by bots that are programmed to follow certain people)

I have seen a number of posts by girls that are very good and they do get deservedly high pay-outs. The bad ones in general don't get high pay-outs as I think the readers do know when they are being exploited.

I personally think every body deserves their own spot in the sun, not all of us will like everything, if you don't like a post, don't vote for it, if you like it vote for it.

One question, I would like you to answer honestly in the comments - Did the bikini girl get you to read this post, yes or no?

See this post as my experiment inside the experiment, which is steemit!!

I hope you liked this post.

bikini girls....thanks your post @rynow

Thanks for the reply

The bikini picture got me to read this, but not for the reason a man would click on it. It's very different from your other content, so I was thinking, "whatttttt???"

I agree with you, though. There is something for everyone and who are we to criticize what someone else might like.

Thank you for your comment

Since you asked...yes, the bikini girl and the title "Bikini Girl Votes:" made me open the post and read it. That is something that triggers my curiosity. Are bikini girls getting​ much more votes and payouts than others?

I actually don't know, fortunately when I open my feed I don't see girls in bikini (at least not that often). I'll keep thinking (believing/hoping) Steemit is for good content and not for Miss beauty contest!

I fully agree with you!! (I did not think the girls would attract ladies!!) Thank you for your comment.

Sure it attracts!! As a girl I want to know what other Steemians think about it ;) Should I share bikini photos to get more noticed?! Glad I found it isn't needed!! :) I wouldn't do it either!

Thanks for the feedback

I think somehow it's inevitable. I doubt if I wear a bikini and post will result in the same phenomenon though. :-)

The same goes for me, I won't attract any attention. LOL

Your post makes total sense to me.

Thanks for the nice reply

No the bikini!

Thanks @saqib

Welcome Dear :)

Jip, she drew me to your post, but more because you do not post bikini girls as a rule! So I thought, what is this? What is @rynow up to now?

Thanks for the nice reply

WOW
very nice post

Thanks for the reply

This post I have in "home" I follow you and I always look at the name of the author. e.g. I have no usable answer.
Generally bikini photo should help. It is said that title of book can decide about it´s success.

Thanks for your nice reply

you are right, everyone can choose which post to upvote :D

Thanks for the reply

No not the bikini, your name. I knew you post good content :-)

Thanks for your nice reply @hope777

sex sells period! Sex industry is one of the biggest and most profitable in the world...just look at prostitution that is enjoyed by most prominent people such as politicians and some of the biggest names you know ..this is why it survived for so long....longer than sears lol

You are right and it is quite sad that it is like that. Thanks for the nice comment

Reading???? No time yet. That comes later. Still watching the girl, hahaha.


Seriously now: Yes the bikini girl got me to read your post.
(funny thing; while i'm writing this ... 10 views and 10 upvotes , but no one dares to reply, except me?) lol.
Like your post btw.

Thanks for the nice and honest reply

Very nice @rynow upvoted :)

Thanks for the reply

@rynow,
You got me ha ha ha :D That's the human nature, not only human, but also the nature of all kind of animals...
I also have the same experience, lovely girl with meals on table and in a hotel.. people upvote, comment and follow like insane. If I put my photo with the same meal, hotel and all other conditions what will happen... lol I can imagine the outcome :D
Thank you very much for sharing this experience with us. You have talked about the real scenario and you did it nicely!

Cheers~

Thanks for your very nice and honest reply.
