Many (not all) of the men here seem actually threatened by images of studly males, nude or clothed.
OK....here we go again. Attributing motivations to people that we don't know -- at all.
No one "feels threatened" by anything. On the other hand, there is a strong possibility that they might feel irritated that certain other individuals keep trying to cram things down their throats -- things that they don't want anything to do with, and that interest them not at all.
There are underlying reasons why the galleries look like they do. And there are reasons why certain types of images tend to get the lion's share of the views/comments.
Those underlying reasons aren't going to change.
Personally, I have no intention of browsing the galleries for images that hold no interest for me.
Perhaps some might feel threatened by such an attitude. So be it.
People go for what they like. Not what others tell them that they should like.
