RE: Lasse's Angels promotion campaign: Are you an attractive female that would like to make 5000 LASSECASH per post ones a week for 3 months? (Guaranteed, potentially much more if the price of LASSECASH goes up)

What are you suggesting? I'm not at my best in high heals. ;)
lol :)
This needs to be off trending period. Considering what is going on in the world today with the disrespect and objectification of gals (and I ain't the PC type) I find this post crude, rude and just plain nasty!
I agree fully that women's real needs are being heavily denied in society. I'm not 100% sure I understand the purpose of the OP here though - it sounds like he is trying to hire a marketing team specifically of attractive women.. I appreciate this looks a bit creepy, but isn't this done every day by marketing companies?
I don't mind downvoting scumbaggery, though I don't have much to downvote with.
Not asking you to down-vote, asking you to deal with this. There is a reason I voted you my witness, trust. Deal with this post which I perceive to be an insult to the Steem Community as a whole.
Deal with it in your way.
Bad things happen when good people do nothing.
The greatest sin in my book is indifference.
I really only have the same ability as anyone else to limit the reach of posts - which is to downvote - unless the post breaks laws that threaten Steem, in which case I still don't really have the ability to do anything directly as that situation requires action from the top 20 witnesses.
If I think of anything I will let you know. I just watched some video from the poster and looked at the website, I don't expect many people will respond to the post anyway. Maybe by commenting here it draws more attention and is counterproductive?
Thinking. Give me a week. I may have a response to this comment.
Good on you for speaking out xx It is appreciated xx

Did not take a week. My response? For one that calls out the powers that be and does not find our backyard important? One word...
Disappointed.
You have asked me to use some kind of power that I don't have. I asked you to suggest what you think I can do and you couldn't - that's because there isn't much I can do.
To put it another way - there's an entire porn project - DPorn - I am guessing they intend to pay rewards to people having sex to get them.. Are we going to downvote every post they make forever? Maybe we are.
He has long record of that. In the past it was about flat earth, etc.
Also, some videos about either: being broke or how to earn a lot.
Are you talking about me? I've never made a video about flat earth, being broke or how to make a lot of money - so I presume you are talking about someone else. edit: I guess you were talking about the original poster and not me @gtg. The threads in steempeak are not making it obvious who is talking about who here.
He, @gtg, is not talking about you. Chill brother.
Thanks for the mention, that stuff is worthy of a flag 🚩
Some people are just deplorable...
Heya what's up, sadly I'm not an attractive lady :)
Downvoted for being sexist. :) wow that is so 19...whatever date. We are in the 2000's now, men are more objectified than women. :P
Id love to hear how this post is sexist.
Having too many rewards aside, im really interested to see how this is in any way sexist and demeaning to women.

Sexist is probably not the right word, more like objectifying woman, I wouldn’t want my daughter sending him pics in DM for example. It isn’t a good look for the trending page, it was funny seeing the responses.
Objectifying? Humans are sexual beings, this is nothing more then playing upon basic human instinct.
An attractive woman attracts attention more easily then a unattractive one. Thats just human nature.
Exactly why lets say, Victoria Angels arent obese unattractive women.
There was nothing disrespectful here, the was nothing sexist here. Simply someone tapping into human nature and theres absolutely nothing wrong with that.
Your outrage is missplaced. If the women aspect of this post outraged you then you should probably move that outrage and flag "human nature" not the guy using it as a legit marketing tactic.
Sorry but i find this white knight, PC bulshit tied into the collective outrage ridiculous and honestly pathetic when you realize the hypocrisy behind these flags.

Question do you have a daughter? If so what narrative do you want to reinforce in the world she lives in?
What values are you reinforcing here?
That sexuality doesnt exist? That attractive people dont exist? That we shouldnt make the distinction between the "pretty" and the "ugly".
That people shouldnt use their physical attributes to their advantage?
That we should attack those that acknowledge human nature?
That when a guy in a male dominated business like crypto asks to find and pay users of the opposite sex to post on his chain, that he should be attacked for it?
What exactly are the positive values you are reinforcing here?
I see none. All i see is you being outraged at someone for making request for physicaly attractive women because he thinks that will benefit his business or whatnot.
Should he had written: Looking for ugly women? Ugly men?
If its ok to ask for smart women, then its fine to ask for attractive ones.
Both are attributes of us humans and painting a picture that searching for one attribute is somehow valiant and searching for the other is somehow appaling and outrageous is beyond ridiculous.

Reinforcing that women deserve more dignity than be reduced to selling their bodies.
You def don't want to encourage human nature, base human nature is very animalistic, I come from Africa and have seen and heard about things that are truely shocking, so you don't want to go down the road of encouraging human nature.
Humans should rise above their base instincts through education and evolved thinking.
Yeah well if you notice the world is trying to break free of this convention, media and modelling is leaning towards fuller figures, plus sizes etc. Everyone has value and saying someone is worth more because they are pretty is discrimantory.
This type of ad offended some of the older readers who called on others to do something about it, so clearly it was offensive, maybe subjectively so but offensive none the less.
Just as much as you view the ad poster to be justified, the people outrages are also justified to vote against it, it is their stake and they can choose what they would like to see on trending.
If you have an affiliation to the person posting or to the said project maybe you should disclose that, as that is what it looks like otherwise why would you care to defend it.
Breaking free of that conversation?
Yeah. Thats beyond ridiculous. Plus size movement is the pinacle of stupidity of modern society.
The absolute corruption of human intelect. Sickness painted as the "norm".
Its beyond disgusting.
Acknowledging human nature is nothing wrong. Wer not talking here about culture destroying animalistic behavior. Wer talking about the very basis of what makes us human. Sexuality.
Someone is worth more because theyre pretty?
No one is worth as a human more based on anything.
But if you are marketing based on physical attraction its an absolute fact that a attractive person is worth 100 times more then a non attractive one. There is nothing discrimatory in that.
I dont care facts offend you.
I dont care what was offensive to you. People can be offended about anything.
Im offended by people wearing socks with slippers.
Im offended by people saying "nukelar" instead of "nuclear".
I can say any fucking thing offends me.
I care only about facts and what is right.
And what is right is that a guy can say: "Beautiful women attract more attention then ugly women and i want beautiful women to promote my project and ill pay them for it."
... and no one can crucify him for it.

You can't say that is sickness, some people are born with fuller figures and larger bone structure, they can't help it, doesn't mean they are sick or any less attractive.
In fact in days gone by, fuller size were more desirable like the Mona Lisa, modern society has changed and now finds skinny as the new attractive, but there are movements to try change that, somewhere inbetween is probably a balance.
If you look at consensus on this post the only significant upvotes are the bots and quite a few stakeholders on Steem disagree with it.
There are modelling agencies with catalogues that can be approached for this sort of thing rather than using the Steem trending page as a cheap way of recruiting.
Anyway you are entitled to your opinion and I to mine, and the rest of the people downvoting or upvoting are entitled to theirs too. Let consensus speak for itself, let's leave it at that.
No. People arent fat by nature. Theyre fat by choice or they have a dissease. Thoroid condition for example.
Take a look at the plus size models. Simple obesity.
Attractive is closer to healthy then plus size. Plus size models promote unhealthy living and normalize it.
Steem disagrees. Sure. I dont care what the mob thinks. If i showed up at a flat earth convention the consensus would be that the moon landing was fake and that the earth is flat.
I dont care what a finite number of people have to say about how they see the world when the abundance of facts show the opposite.
I cant leave it to opinion because this is not solely a opinion based argument.
This is not:
Im giving you facts and the fact is that physical attractivness is a real attribute and should be left to the guy making this proposal to judge for himself.
This is not anyone demeaning women thinking theyre only good for their looks or physical attributes.
They are good for everything else but looks are a huge factor that shouldnt be dismissed when trying to promote something.

I'm trying to look at this objectively.
While lasse could of worded this better, way way way way way way way way way better. His "business opportunity" is very similar to what companies do at trade shows, hiring booth babes. Or companies partnering with instagram models to promote their brand. Or any number of other businesses like, for example, cosmetic companies, that hire super models to promote their brands.
It's my opinion that this is being blown way out of proportion.
Sure I agree, and also agree on second read it isn't that bad, but generally those companies you refer to don't put the job ad out there so distastefully, I'm sure they discretely contact a modelling agency and enlist the girls they want. The community is quite sensitive about what appears on trending and I don't think this was a good showcase for the trending page, if it wasn't voted up out of proportion then it wouldn't have been blown up out of proportion.
The trending page is supposed to be for good curated content, would you expect to see this post on say the front page of Cointelegraph or Coindesk, probably not, so why should it be voted up so much on Steem?
Thanks.
You are welcome. I am happy to see that you, along with a number of my other witnesses, have decided to step up and not be...
INDIFFERENT
As a side-note... thank you for all the work that you and others are doing on the STEEM Code. I get notifications by e-mail everyday. Actually, many notifications everyday. Your hard work and that of others does not go unnoticed by a good many of us.
Passed it around already my man, thank you😁
