There are two types of people attacking women for showing off and they have distinct reasons.
First are those who perceive themselves to be in competition with other women for the attention of men. They will attack women whom they perceive as putting overt effort into competing for male attention, and also women whose body shape causes them to be sexualized without putting in effort for failing to cover up their unfair advantage.
Second are men who see confident women as less attainable/controllable and therefore seek to attack the self-confidence of those they find attractive. This has the dual purpose of improving their own feelings of value while also making their target more likely to settle for a man who doesn't meet her own standard of beauty, fitness, and/or confidence.
In both cases the people who are attacking the woman are doing so as an expression of their awareness of their own inability to perform a similar display.
Men who are displaying they muscles, money, etc are not perceived as competitors because they are perceived as displaying that for male approval rather than as sexual competition.
These beliefs generally aren't conscious so the people hating on women and not men for what is essentially the same behavior aren't necessarily going to know why they hold this double standard as these are internalized expectations rather than conscious stated values. People who've confronted their own prejudices generally don't engage in negative comments about people showing off things they are proud of.

If the antagonist of BlankMoth decided to move into the Alþingishúsið and start terrorizing everyone there, would they have to rename the Icelandic national legislature the Tallþingi?

Would you mind talking about what your quench tag means to you? I'm curious!
AJFJAKDKW ok so it's my queue tag, which in hindsight really isn't obvious. it came from when a friend of mine (@holyfrankenfuvksnakes 💛) thought that queue was pronounced quench, so I'm basically just making fun of him lol

Secret to getting to know other fans on tumblr is reblogging. This sounds like a trap to get you guys to reblog art and fics and gifs which yes that’s an added benefit but also the way you get a feel of followers or mutuals is the little comments in the tags of a post like subtle little whispers and you start to recognise names like oh that’s the one who’s always nice to artists or that’s the funny one or maybe they have a funny queue pun tag or maybe there can be a little prev tags interaction like that’s how you start creating your own little likeminded souls club here. Also you get to put pretty art and fics and gifs on your blog
