The first reason is motivation. Women who get support from steemstem will continue to write science articles. In addition, they can also invite their colleagues (at work or on campus) to participate in steemstem. I think promoting steemstem to Steemian women is one way to support STEM education. Women are one of the major issues in STEM education.
Awesome. I suggest you to start doing what you preach and donate all the money you make from your posts (starting from this one) to women writting about stem. Here's two of them: @suesa and @ruth-girl
We can motivate them, but that does not mean we can pity them. This article only explains some of the facts I get. If some people feel offended, maybe just a different point of view. I accept criticisms for my article improvement.
May I speak as a woman? Steemit is a crypto platform, men usually deal with such things (let's not get into the loooong discussion about gender-based interests, I've had enough of that at university).
Secondly, most women accounts promote easily digested topics (photo, beauty, layman psychology, cause in this world that's what advertising feeds us).
Thirdly, an online profile can hide any gender behind it (I could be named bobby around here and still have an XX chromosome pair).
Also, it's at least rude to point out that steemstem doesn't support us, we have pretty bright examples of steemstem-women, @abigail-dantes, @irime, @laylasophia, @suesa, are just the top ones (IMO).
So, the next time you jump to a conclusion, consider all the factors that lead to a situation, try to justify it based on all the parameters and don't just pitty women cause all the SJW fuss says it's the right thing to do. In third world countries, yes, women are left out, but in the modern world the opportunities are plenty.
So, if you give more money to women blogging about STEM out of your pocket it's pity. If SteemStem does that, it's motivation! Do you see the hypocrisy in that?
Of course you do, but you don't want to point that out. Because the first directly impacts yourself while the other not only doesn't impact you but also makes you (in your mind) sound like the good, white knight who had the brilliant idea to think of the poor women.
Personally, if I was a woman, I would definitely be offended if some guy was asking people to pay me more just because I was born with a vagina.
This makes no sense. Did you have a careful look to the science category? We need to motivate people in general to write good STEM posts...
We don't care about the person being a male or a female. On the same ground, we ignore the author's race, religion, etc. We are promoting good STEM content. We are promoting good STEM authors. That's it. No positive and no negative discrimination ever. We are not a funding agency. We are not a hiring committee.
You assumption is also ridiculous: please demonstrate why a woman writing a post on STEM would necessarily work on a campus?
I think promoting steemstem to Steemian women is one way to support STEM education.
I disagree. First, show me how steemit contribute to education in STEM? This is a big flaw in your reasoning.
Women are one of the major issues in STEM education.
Sure, it is an issue. Major issue? Why? Moreover, committees are well aware of this. Believe me. Things are moving in the right direction by don't expect things to change in no time.

I support this :P
@teukumukhlis: please follow this idea! or to @kerriknox too.

Thank you!

Perhaps that's why you were born as a man!
Of course you know... As said by @justtryme90, you have no clue what you are talking about. I am done with this discussion. My time is precious...
Okay. Thank you for your precious time. I will introspect myself.
Yeah! Me too! ^_^

Right @lemouth, gender, gender, gender, we've come to forget about the person and only care about genitalia and hormones
