What people are upset about is not the fact that girls get high payouts. I mean, why would they? It's not like they, themselves, lose money. Instead, the issue is that the quality of some of the highly upvoted posts - for the lack of better words - really sucks.
(of course 50% of the reason people are bitching is completely unrelated to the post quality - they are just jealous and want some of that sweet sweet $$ themselves but that's a whole other discussion)
However, to continue on the subject of post quality... what the main issue for a lot of people is, is that time and time again we have seen the top trending post being a good looking girl with a nice pair of breasts (or a cute face) combined with a rather dull and honestly super generic post.
The content racking in the most money is quite simply bad and just not worth anywhere near the amount it's been awarded. And before someone mentions it, no, of course that isn't always the case.
:- )
No doubt about that. No one has an issue with interesting content posted by a woman- we need more if it! The problem is that "interesting content" is all too often nothing but a picture of a fine donk.
The problem, however, is not the women posting things that pornhub does better. The problem is us- the people that upvote it. If we as a community reject tits in favor of philosophy, we have a much more valuable organization. I'd also be very impressed.
I agree completely :-)
I do agree a lot of it is jealousy, I just think if Steemit is trying to be the next big thing after youtube (right?) how many successful female you tubers don't use this to their advantage also?
Secondly, I also agree- if the post is awful quality and completely generic it shouldn't be upvoted- but the few that do this shouldn't be able to ruin it for those who do make quality posts and also use things to their advantage such as their faces. I mean, if males all wearing a certain t-shirt suddenly made all of them gain a lot of up votes, near on every single male would jump on the band wagon- quality or not. I suppose its just the way of the world! Thanks for the comment :-)
