People on the Internet Are Body-Shaming Jason Momoa’s “Dad Bod"
What in the actual?


Y’all know Jason Momoa is not Aquaman IRL, right? Well, some people don’t. The former Game of Thrones star (who is 39, BTW) was minding his own damn business with his wife Lisa Bonet, their kids, and her daughter Zoë Kravitz (casual) in Venice, Italy, when he decided to bless us all by going shirtless. Instead of embracing this gift to the world, some people had really nasty things to say in the comments section of Us Weekly’s Instagram.

“Omg, what happened to the abs?” Ummm...IDK, what happened to your manners? Look, the rigorous amount of time, planning, and energy that goes into an action star’s body is simply not sustainable. Would you want to live on chicken breast alone (like Chris Hemsworth (opens in new tab)) and work out, like, a million hours a day? I didn’t think so. But still, to even call this a “dad bod”?! Come off it.
Let’s take another look, shall we? Abs or no abs (although I’m pretty sure those are still abs), Jason Momoa can get it. I will die on this hill. Fight me. I wouldn’t fight him, though, if I were you...he’s 6’4”.
Luckily, Jason’s fans are sticking up for the buff bro on Twitter. Just like it’s not okay to fat-shame actresses (or anyone, for that matter), it’s not cool to take to social media to criticize men’s bodies...even if those men are known for their signature muscles.
So apparently people are shaming Jason Momoa's Dad bod... you know the body where he looks like an above average fit man instead of a Spartan Warrior? pic.twitter.com/7s51iv3xC5July 6, 2019

If you’re honestly trying to imply Jason Momoa has a Dad bod, then it’s clear you don’t know what a Dad bod is.June 19, 2019
But don’t worry, Jason seems completely unbothered and is sharing his own pics from his vacation, TG! Yes, I’m officially done talking about haters. This is now a Jason Momoa appreciation post.

The man doesn’t have time for body shamers anyway. He’s too busy having a blast on vacation and saving the ocean. Maybe he is Aquaman IRL after all.
