Then you should still be sexy with a few extra pounds!!!
Most people gain weight because their calorie intake exceeds their activity level. That doesn't mean that just because you don't exercise, you'll gain weight. It means that if you consistently take in more calories than your body burns by your activities, then you will begin to convert the extra calories to pounds. Eventually you will become fat.
But I bet you'll still be sexy!!!

Yes, you can become fat by only eating high carbs and fat. But on such an unbalanced diet, after a while, fat or not, you will no longer be healthy. Unhealthy people are not sexy.
Its actually a biological fact: people are sexually attracted to healthy people. Nature set it up that way to ensure healthy offspring.
Most people who are exceptionally "ugly" or very fat or very skinny are that way due to abnormalities in their genetic make-up or health conditions: hence, others find them "unattractive".
BTW: I know you didn't ask a serious question, but you may as well learn something.

It's not the high carbs or fat in any food that causes extra weight. It's the total intake of calories that does it, compared to calorie use.
And there's a problem with foods that are high carbs (eg, plain starch (sugar, rice, potatoes, ...) or fat (oils, solid fats, ...). They don't contain much of anything else (like fiber, vitamins or other trace nutrients, ...), and an absence of these can cause trouble. And they very often contain too much of some things, such as salt, trans fats, or additives of one kind or another. Which can also cause trouble. Sooner or later.
Most such foods are industrially processed, ie junk foods, and they contain only those ingredients which are required to sell. It's a simple profit issue, as no company will increase their costs voluntarily. The issue is not really natural vs artificial, thought there's lots of myth claiming it is, as there are lots of natural foods that aren't all that good for you (especially in large quantities -- eg coconut milk which is quite saturated in its fats), and there are artificial foods which are good for you (eg, sugar in small quantities).
It's a matter of balance. Remember that balanced diet advice people keep going on and on about? This is the core reason for it. Your body requires a variety of nutrients to work right, including to be as sexy as you can be. These include carbohydrates -- most especially glucose -- and fats -- most especially the two essential fats you cannot make internally from other types. And no food is ideally balanced. So eat a variety of foods, don't fall for any of the fad diets and popular magazine article advice. Most of it is bushwa, and ill advised.
Even your doctor might not be the best source of information, for medical school doesn't spend much time on correct nuitrition. There's more than enough to learn about how bodies have problems and what to do about them. Your best bet is a trained dietician (in the US these are officially Registered Nutrutionists -- there are similar qualifications elsewhere). They may have goofy ideas too -- in the US there are some with radio and TV shows who dispense the most appalling misadvice and bunk, but your chances are much better. Run, don't walk away from any who tout the wondrous benefits of any particular nutrient, and who don't go on and on about balance in diet. They'll probably be a variant of the bunkum spouting TV frauds found here. Sufficiently entertaining to attract an audience has essentially nothing to do with understanding of the often twisty bits in human nutrition.
===========
Little known fact: Plants can make fats / oils from carbohydrates (particularly glucose) as they have the biochemical machinery to do so. No animal can, as they lack that machinery. So it is not true that teh carbohydrate you eat goes directly to your hips. What is true is that the carbohydrate you eat (especially glucose -- plain or as starch which is lots of glucoses stuck together in chains) is used for fuel preferentially. And that means that any fat/oil you eat won't be, and will be stored instead against future need. A subtle point, but one on which even a good dietician may have gotten themselves confused. You may now know more about this little cornet of human metabolism than many of them.

Yes.
Makes no difference. Fat is neither attracted by nor repulsed by being sexy. It also doesn't care what gender or race you are.
