The commonality of the two question - they were both asked to ALL PEOPLE (literally) about the reason of something that's only true to SOME PEOPLE.

"what is it about a balut that makes you want to eat it?"
"what is it about a man that makes you want to have sex with him?"
"what is it about a superman cloak that makes you want to wear it?"
Easy on the personal attack.
