This has me day dreaming and probably remising on my past attractions which might have been faulty. Who knows? Let’s find out, as I answer this question as blunt as my mind can be👉🏽 ‘Does a man need to have a fit/muscled/athletic body and a handsome face to be attractive to you?’
I was told to answer Yes or No- What if the answer is yes and no (I have my reasons you know) If I choose either of them, I think I could be lying and I don't want my pants to be on fire.
Though from all analysis of the YES and NO answer below the negetive won 🏆 My response is a fat ‘NO’
WHY?
Let me begin with a background story before my plus-size friends and elder brother will count me an enemy (I love you guys😘). Whilst in the boarding house, we would go for holidays and when we returned back my classmates and other students doubled their weights and sometimes even tripled. They looked very uncomfortable. I disliked what becoming fat does to a confident person- confidence is beauty to me; the carriage, the brisk/smart walk and the poise with which one moves is admirable.
So in truth I rather feel sorry for individuals uncomfortable under their skin.
You aren't using the full potential of your skin, mate!
No wonder demons want to take over any ‘human body’ that lapses, to use it fully. Maybe they value the human body more.
“When an impure spirit comes out of a person, it goes through arid places seeking rest and does not find it. Then it says, ‘I will return to the house I left.’ When it arrives, it finds the house unoccupied, swept clean and put in order. Then it goes and takes with it seven other spirits more wicked than itself, and they go in and live there. And the final condition of that person is worse than the first. Matt12:43-50
So I decided from then on to work out and be confident. What I find healthy and desirable in my significant other, I derive from myself first.
All pictures are mine
Not saying that plus-size guys aren't confident.
Oh there are confident, smart-walking and beautiful minded plus sized men that are 🥵🔥 because they are intentional about themselves, hardworking (always up and about with their affairs) and working out - never slobbery or lazy (even if it seems the workout isn't showing) but it shows through carriage.
Now to the reason why I felt It was yes and no.
‘Yes’ because a man with a fit athletic body plus a handsome face attracts my attention just in sighting him (even if I turn my face quickly, so he won't catch me gawking. I just throw flashes of a few glances his way without anyone noticing - yes, I'm weird that way) first and foremost then his intellectual depth and sensitivity keeps my attention lingering for a far longer time, maybe enough to seal the deal.
And ‘No’ because I have been attracted to a beautiful mind (he spoke so eloquently) and a few people through phone conversations as we had a good rapport.
Although the phone rapport can be a tidbit misleading- as I drew a picture in my head about a person by our phone conversations and was grossly wrong. He limped on a side of his leg thinking it was swag and had a sleazy look as though trying too hard to impress in the strangest of ways. He failed to be him. By him I mean more natural and transparent.
For physical attributes a guy who is neat, perfumed, fit and not necessarily hunky though a big body build that can engulf me with a warm embrace of a hug would be lovely (I'm a hugger😁) just imagining it feels good. Sorry, going on... Cute lips and a fine face could make a girl trip. By girl I mean me.

Then ‘the main the main’- that which is on the inside. He is God-fearing, He is intelligent, he is genuine, he is sensitive, he is comedic (able to make me laugh sometimes if not most) and the list goes on. All in all a beautiful being inside which finds it's way to the surface of the skin.

Hasn't it happened to you where you view a guy or lady as not being so attractive but in encountering him or her beauty resonates?
Okay. From my post the no negates the yes of course. So my final anwer still stands a NO he doesn’t have to be fit and handsome to be attractive.
You made it to the end💕 I have to cut this short so it doesn’t turn to a book. Nice having you here.
