Weaker People Can Influence Fitness Trends DadBod

 Recently, an article appeared written by Mackenzie Pearson a 19 year old journalist (sic) regarding the 'Dad Bod'. The dad bod is just that, a doughy version of what once was a slightly muscular young man who's succumbed to the more 'relaxed' lifestyle of Americans. Gone are the days of going to the gym or running an obstacle race and forget about eating right. Enter the new daily routine of relaxing for 5 hours in front of the TV with Dominos ringing the doorbell after putting in a hard day sitting at a desk.

 The author states that women like the dad bod because it doesn't intimidate them, that it's more cuddly, and it never matters what's for dinner. This doesn't compute and further more there isn't enough estrogen to make me fathom these concepts. I think that they're a bunch of crap and notice the subtlety of a much more dangerous beast.

 Enter the sloven woman, the woman who puts leisure above all else. When the fit man encounters one of these during a courting ritual he is immediately red flagged and targeted for ostracization     due to his 'insinuation' that the women must be on his fitness level. Instantly, her brain sees herself a year from that moment immersed into a lifestyle of fitness, meal prepping, and hard work. Not a rational choice for the sloven woman because it goes against her lifestyle. Also the appearance of a man with lower testosterone is less threatening to her demands.

 Maybe it is time for some to do an honest evaluation of their own lifestyle and admit to not wanting to work hard to stay healthy instead of easily creating a buzz phrase that says, "he's more acceptable to me because he won't have any expectations that I'll have to work at." Stop trying to create a socially usable excuse to describe your own lack of drive. Instead of telling men that the dad bod is ok, tell the world why you are a couch potato. Why take from men that which is naturally programmed in their hard wiring - to accept challenges, to be strong, to compete, etc and reduce it to conform to, for lack of a better word, lazy?
