I cannot speak for the masses. I personally enjoy a man more when he has a few extra pounds. Extremely obese however can be problematic. Not due to being unattractive but simply due to logistics. When I say extremely obese I am speaking 450 plus pounds.
Beauty and attraction is based on genetics and pheromones. You will notice in society (real not media inclined) you will often see larger men with small or petite women and vise versa. The commonality is likely due to one having a genetic trait over hyperthyroidism while the other a genetic link to hypothyroidism. This is theorized but not proven.
Overly muscular was once extremely attractive to women due to the ability to protect and provide (hunt) this stigma has lasted longer in media than in real life.
I personally find larger men (and yes women) incredibly enticing. Before you lovely (slightly aggressive) naysayers jump in and state I am marketing understand I am publicly stating my preference for larger men. This would likely turn off smaller and more fit men from contacting me for an appointment.
Overall personality trumps everything. Period. If a larger man acted like oh I don't know just tossing out a name randomly here......wake up.... He would
likely be perceived as extremely unattractive to a large sum of women (myself included)
In my experience bigger men adapt with a variety of very....pleasant.... skills. Aside from being generally kinder, more thoughtful, and generous in the bedroom they also tend to share similar interests as I do. This is not to say I have not found thinner men to share some wonderful experiences with. I can say without a doubt or hesitation that in the total sum of my 12 years of dating, 9 hears of providing, 10 years of dancing I have met only 3 muscular or "fit/muscular" men that I connected with at all.
The body is simply that. A body. It holds the sum and total of who you are. If you are kind and gentle, if you are intelligent and thoughtful, you hold the keys to the kingdom.
Old-T..... Careful if you keep this up I am going to have to propose marriage. With my commitment issues that can cause us some complications
