Others have made some great points about the value of sexy photos, but I honestly think they haven't been blunt enough, so we're going to rip off the band aid here, and you probably ain't going to like it.
If people appreciate your content, they will pay what they feel it is worth to them, and you have to be okay with that if you are posting it for free. As others mentioned, on other platforms you would just get a like, maybe a repost, and if you're really lucky a few kind words in the comments to try and encourage you to post more. The fact earning anything on your posts at all is built into this protocol is incredible, and something all of us posting sexy content should be grateful for. After all, people can find ample titillating content for free within seconds just by telling a search engine what they want to see. They have no reason to tip us jack shit for posting the same kind of content here.
Unless you are offering something they can't find elsewhere for free, they'll likely treat your content as having about the same monetary value as what they can find anywhere else on the Internet. In other words, about the same value as the time you saved them searching for it.
This is also a large part of why tips of less than a dollar are so insulting to dancers. They actually ARE offering something that can't be obtained free on the internet; namely a live, in-person, woman taking off her clothes right in front of them.
What I have seen from your account so far is putting out minimal effort and fresh content and expecting maximal reward. Out of the last 30 posts containing any content from you, 29 of them were reposts of things you had posted days ago and were trying to milk for more zaps. And while you do look mighty fine in lingerie, you haven't posted a damn thing more than what we could see in a Victoria's Secret commercial.
If you know anything about Bitcoin at all, its that the biggest factor in determining its ever increasing value is its scarcity when compared with demand. Demand is going up, while supply is going down, so the perceived value of Bitcoin tends to go up.
The same concept applies to sexy pictures. Now, there's plenty of demand for them out there, I'll hand you that. The problem is that the supply is also ever increasing, and unlike Bitcoin, me sharing a sexy picture with someone doesn't mean I no longer have it. Where Bitcoin has perfect scarcity, because there will only ever be 21 million Bitcoin, I am very happy to say that sexy pictures have no scarcity whatsoever, and therefore their perceived value is going to be very small and ever decreasing, particularly when priced in sats.
So no, the amount people tip you on here is no reflection of their "manhood". It is a reflection of the fact that you bring nothing here that they can't get for free from anywhere else. Their sats are scarce. Pictures of scantily clad women are not.
