The point is that protons aren't even fundamental particles. Unlike
electric charge, mass, which is gravitational charge doen't have any
corresponding fundamental particle. The only candidate for a
fundamental mass is the the Planck mass. But if you compare the
gravitational attraction of two charged Planck masses to their
electromagnetic attraction you find that the gravitational attraction is
137 times greater.
