QOTD: Chris Pratt Wants You To Objectify Him More
Chris Pratt has a thought (and you know a load of fuckery is going to hit your eyeballs when he has one of those). America’s back-up sweetheart (or is Jennifer Lawrence America’s back-up sweetheart?) thinks he knows the key to equality. It isn’t equal pay or any shit like that. Chris Pratt thinks that equality will be fully reached once everyone starts slobbering over dudes more. I’m pretty much already one step ahead of that (see: practically every post I write on Dlisted).
During an interview with Radio 4’s Front Row, the anti-Kit Harrington and former fatty was asked if taking his body from chunk to buff was a move he did to get ahead in his career. Chris said that it wasn’t calculated or anything, but he knows it was a big reason for why he’s an action star now. Chris went on to say that he’s totally okay with being objectified and thinks men need to be objectified more:
“I think it’s OK, I don’t feel appalled by it. I think it’s appalling that for a long time only women were objectified, but I think if we really want to advocate for equality, it’s important to even things out. Not objectify women less, but objectify men just as often as we objectify women.There are a lot of women who got careers out of it, and I’m using it to my advantage. And at the end of the day, our bodies are objects. We’re just big bags of flesh and blood and meat and organs that God gives us to drive around.”
Um, I sort of get what Chris Pratt is trying to say, but to really get his point, I’m going to need him to say it while his top is off and his nipples are hard. And he should leave out that part where we’re all just ground meat Volvos.
P.S. – If you’re offended by anything the real-life Andy Dwyer said, he’s already apologized for it.
