Why does my husband grab my love handles during sex?

r/

I’ve already asked one question about my weight today; so sorry for coming back so fast! But some of the helpful comments from you ladies got me thinking and now I have another question!

Recently l’ve gained quite a bit of chub and sadly for me it’s mostly gathered around my hips, tummy and thighs!! (Lucky me)!

My husband (also autistic) has been pretty supportive and just rolled with it but l’ve noticed lately when we’re having sex, this man GRABS at my love handles and holds them.

He seems to enjoy it but I’m too embarrassed to ask him like “sir are you enjoying that excess fat???”
Could this be an intersect/fetish for him? Or a sign he doesn’t like them? I don’t know
