Right, here’s what ‘7×7=49’ actually means on TikTok

The multiplication sum has gone viral because people think it’s attractive. You’re gonna have to bear with me on this one. Women are literally saying “7×7=49” is their new hear me out and they find the equation really sexy.

It all started on 1st April when a TikTok account called @heartzz.kyra posted a now-deleted video showing random things that women find attractive apart from men, to show that girls are into “more than just looks”. One of them was the equation “7×7=49,” which sparked a lot of confusion in the comments.

Soon enough, the meme spread online and people started agreeing that “7×7=49” is really attractive. Why? Nobody really knows. But it basically stems from the idea that people associate some numbers with specific human qualities. It’s actually a really common thing, with people loving a particular number and associating personality traits with it.

The very real neurological phenomenon is called synesthesia, which is when the stimulation of one sense triggers another. So, you might feel like you can taste words, associate certain letters with specific colours or in this case, link a number with a certain feeling, like attractiveness.

Now, women are making jokes about how they’d drop anyone for the equation, like “When he’s offering me the world but 7×7=49 walks by” and “When I’m marrying the love of my life and then 7×7=49 shows up at the end of the aisle.” And that’s it. Just another dumb TikTok trend.
