RE: How to Make Tons of Money on Steemit: Be a WHITE GIRL, Show Some Skin, and Travel to Some Foreign Country!

in #steem8 years ago (edited)

I'm a white guy. Nothing in life is very fair to me either lol. No special help for college, no safety net if I fall, no one wants to give me money to see any of my skin, no special programs for contracts... hell I am barred from competing on ~1/4 of all DoD contracts because I am the shitty combo of white + male.

I once filled out a form that asked if I was female. Then if I was hispanic, asian, african american, etc etc. After that it said "if you haven't answered yes to atleast one of the above you are not a small disadvantaged business. If you feel you are please explain in the space below".

I almost filled it the space. I so wanted to say I'm a small disadvantaged business because everyone else gets a handicap-headstart that I don't get. No special lending programs. No priority of contract awards even if I'm cheaper. Nothing.

We can find ways that life is unfair for anyone. Just keep calm and live on. Getting jealous/angry/upset won't improve a thing for you.

Sort:  

Who said I was jealous and upset? I was pointing out the obvious and provided examples. If you don't agree with it, it's fine. There are others who feel the same what that I do and we have the rights to express ourselves.

I wasn't saying you were per se... but, you did write a whole article complete with referenced examples which would lead me to believe it bothers you.

I totally agree with you, I was merely pointing out my own experience. I certainly don't think I was in any way attempting you shutter your right to express yourself.

Hell, if my comment has no value for you, by all means disregard it ;-)

Using examples show that I actually have spent my time reading and researching posts on Steemit. I just want to show that I actually did my homework and didn't just make things up.
I was just stating a trend I have observed that's all.

I agree, and commend you on your work! What I was trying to communicate in a nut shell was:
Yes, its unfair, but then there are always things that are unfair in life.

Nothing more, nothing less.
