RE: Milestone Moment + Contest // Let’s Bring More Women onto the Platform - 10 SBD Giveaway!

in #contest7 years ago (edited)

Great initiative. Very well intentioned and delivered.

I'm curious if the basis for this is due to general sentiment/gut feel that you don't see enough women engaging the platform, or was some type of more formal analysis done that makes this obvious outside of the top ten lists? I might be in too much of a niche, but I've never sensed there was much of a disparity in male/female ratios. Maybe it's more the the case in other communities, and I'm sure you have far more exposure than me.

I think a GoT theme song collab would bring tons of women to dtube ;)

Sort:  

I'm pretty sure we make up only about 8% of the population here. Although, I never feel the disparity. Everyone is an avatar to me. But when I do come across women, they usually tend to be pretty much my favorite steemians. Not sure why -- maybe it's because I am one, maybe it's because I relate more? Maybe it's because I have a secret bias. But most of the women I know on here are rockin'. Whereas not all of the men I know on here are rockin'. Although most of them are as well. So for me it's a mixture of formal meets informal review of the subject.

I think some girlsies are getting too carried away with the idea, like it's some kind of problem. I think the only problem with it is it would be cool if we had more women in crypto. But the ones I know (@heiditravels, @coruscate, @whatsup, @bethelea, @patrice, and more, are incredible women.

Great reply (as always), but one notch up here for bonus points.

Aw, thanks!
