As a man , I recently had a massive weight loss transformation of my body as I started hitting the gym . The thing is , all the compliments on my looks come from guys . Before this , most guys dont even say much to me or find it difficult to even be friendly to me . Many guys like to touch me more now as compared to before . And believe it or not , physical affection is way more now than when I was fat. Guys want to hug me more , but almost no guys wanted to hug me when I was fat. Why do guys hug more when we are thinner ?
