You wonder if it is smart or immoral to use your sex as an advantage.
You wonder if the guys upvote and comment on your posts because they like how you look or how you think.
People think you only get upvotes for your cute pictures.
You wonder if you should post any pictures of yourself at all.
You question if you would get as many likes as other girls if you posted half-naked pictures too.
You realize that there aren't as many girls as guys on Steemit, which is pretty cool. It makes you feel cool.
You want to use your unique female knowledge to touch the lives of others so that they can gain something from your words of wisdom.
Your nurturing nature wants you to nurture and heal the world and you realize Steemit might just be the perfect place to spread some awareness/bring about change.
Especially now that I am a mother, I don't want to publish any revealing photos of myself onto the internet. If you would have checked my Instagram two years ago, you'd see a nice supply of bikini and skimpy Halloween costume pics. Motherhood makes me think differently. I don't need as much approval from men as I used to. I do have a boyfriend, who I admit, I need approval and attention from, but that's all I need. Yes, I do have social media and I do like when I get a lot of likes, I'm not going to lie... But I mostly post pictures of my daughter and family these days.
I have been enjoying Steemit so far. I used to write on my blog as a form of release but I also have the desire to reach out to others who are seeking tools to bring more mindful actions into their lives. I am a lover of being mindful, I want to leave others and the planet better than how I found them. I'm much more enthused to write on Steemit instead of my blog these days. I still want to write on my blog but I believe Steemit has the ability to reach the eyes of more people and I believe Steemit will blow up! Who wants to write for free when you can get paid? My goal is be to a work-from-home mom so I can be at home with my kid(s). I want my daughter to be in homeschool program that gets the children together a few days per week. I dream of my family being able to travel whenever we please and to own land and have a comfortable home.
I like the concept of feminism in that I think we should be treated equally to men, but I think the word feminism sounds anti-man. I would say that I think I may have actually lived an easier life than a lot of men I know. I was a pretty cute girl growing up and I was treated like one. Yes, it sucks feeling like an object, but it was nice to feel desired and looked up to. I feel sad for those who had a hard time growing up, and I hope by spreading awareness to our children we can limit this in the future. I am a believer in universal oneness, meaning I think everything is part of the same energy source; therefore, I don't hate anyone, not even murderers because I see them as myself gone awry with negative beliefs.
I haven't gotten much attention here on Steemit yet but my hope is to read posts by interesting people and participate in a like-minded social community. I hope to help inspire others just as others inspire me. I hope to teach as well as to learn. I look forward to watching Steemit grow and hope it becomes that of its amazing potential.
A potential to change the world on a large scale
Love,
