Nah, I’m bored at work just like you are. Just doing a little hate-reading for the afternoon.

Yes, and also why call it that. I mean, just seeing the words "dad bods for bootycalls" just makes me want to vomit. Then stab out my eyes. Honestly I had never really thought about that body shape before, but now that I have, and now that I've heard it called a "dad bod", it's associated with something gross. And if…

There are a lot of guys who say judgmental things about the bodies of women they're dating even if those women are objectively more attractive than them.

Yeah, the guts push against you in pleasing way.

...but how many people reacted SO negatively when this happened on girls:

Okay, I am not usually given to such optimism ( maybe it’s because I just found 1/2 bottle of vodka, diet coke, swiss cheese and pretzels in the house we are 99% moved out of, which means I don’t have to leave to find dinner) but is it possible that the term “dad bod” and the associated bodies are so egregiously bad…

Yup. I don't know what women you are talking about. While I'm not into body-building dudes, I certainly DO care if the guy is lean and muscular. And as I'm getting older, OK- I get that we all age; I'm aging too. But this is for guys in their 20s right? Gross. But maybe I associate it with the lifestyle too. Frat boys…

Amy Schumer is a gorgeous gal in her 20s and is a size six and you’re here comparing her to mid-40s, balding, beer-gutted Louis CK? Jesus CHRIST.

Seriously— I’m sick of alla these dipshit blogs & articles telling me that I’m weird for liking sexy men, or insisting upon sexiness in men, or looking at male bodies as sexualized things. It’s like there’s this female complicity in men’s fight against the existence of any sort of Female Gaze.

Men are surrounded by object lessons in how they can still be successful and powerful, no matter how they look. Women have . . . the opposite experience.

I can’t really agree there, because I’ve met super-hot guys who were insecure, mean little bastards. But maybe the difference is confidence — yours were confident, mine were freaked out because they know their looks were all they had and felt insecure in their abilities? Or maybe I’m reading too much into it?

This isn’t “men”.

Exactly. I know for certain you and I are not the only women who prefer fit guys and don’t date fat guys. Some of the stuff in this article seems a bit more, “keep on moving and pretend its not there” than anything else.

As soon as I started reading about this nonsense I asked myself which pasty middle aged white male is pushing this agenda. Fuck that guy. I have a dadbod, it’s not a pretty sight.

Tyra Banks the Victoria Secret model is schlubby?

Later, Davis suggests that a dadbod offers the fantasy of a judgment-free zone about your body, too. “A dadbod makes me think we could eat pizza in bed together and never feel guilty or judge one another.”

People need to work harder at separating the fantasy of media from the reality of being a regular adult. Media is pretty much the 1% of the 1% - they can be super-choosy, so they can pick buff dudes and skinny girls precisely because they are so rare.

Should we aspire to a dadbod / mombod? Maybe. If it’s a “fit” bod,…

It’s totally NOT a thing... It’s the thing that the media have been trying to brainwash us all into believing, for decades. Now they’re trying to make us believe that labeling it Dadbod will make us believe it’s the sexy norm.

that means your wife loves you. she’s a keeper.

A PG-13 movie is for nine year olds? Movies really need to stop being rated in base four.
