Since @anyx's post, I'm careful nowadays and always run a reverse image search to make sure the ones that have the verification aren't faking it. And thus far, I haven't found any positives. I'm sure others are scrutinizing too. If there is any abuse, someone will find out and the user will be flagged and shamed, I'm sure.

As for the genuine verifications, why not? Why would "hot chicks" not be interested in cryptocurrency and social media? According to Alexa, Steemit has more women than men anyway. Some of the best blog posts I have seen are by women too. Yes, I know, I know, it's a flawed statistic, but does give an indication.
