Attraction is more of a chemistry thing than a physics thing.

Maybe electromagnetic attraction, but he's clearly talking about gravitational attraction, which is physics.

They are both part of the same science thing.

True, but I doubt that there is any sort of gravitational porn; not gonna do a search.

I mean, back in ancient times, having some fat meant you were wealthy enough to get fat, thereby making you attractive.

In olden times obesity was a sign of affluence because you got to have money to get that fat. Now they change the food and "poor people food" makes you fat.

Not entirely true, in some Asian cultures the bigger you are the more attractive you are as being fat represents wealth, this might be slowly disappearing but it's a thing

Nope. Muscle is denser than fat. So the more muscular you get the more attractive you are, which is generally true

But if you start full of muscle, and then add fat, you are still becoming more massive

It’s really just that as you gain weight, you become more attractive

Density doesn't do jack shit to attraction lol. It's the mass.

It's all about mass, and you dont reach 400+ pounds by lifting weights

This isn't a shower thought, it's a pun. And an unoriginal one at that.

How’s that a pun and I just thought of it

curiouscabbage69 t1_j9vgqwy wrote

The pun is on the word attractive because you are applying the two different meanings of it

It actually means the same thing in both cases, just the object of the attraction changes. Whether you're attracting attention or mass, you're still attracting.
