Chris Pratt has finally solved this whole equality thing.
Pratt used to weigh almost 300 pounds, but he lost 60 pounds in six months after he quit drinking beer and started working out with a trainer six days a week to prepare for his role in “Guardians of the Galaxy.”
He credits the weight loss with the shift in his career, and said that even though he’s objectified now, he’s OK with it.
“I think it’s appalling that for a long time only women were objectified,” Pratt said in an interview. “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.” (RELATED: Chris Pratt Is Pro-Gun And Anti-Coyote)
