Dear Dad Bod Movement,

You're onto something here. No, really.

To those unfamiliar with the term "dad bod," let me fill you in. A teenager — yes, teenager — brought the term into common vernacular when she wrote an article explaining how doughy is the new sexy. It speaks of the natural confidence a man projects when he could have a nice body but opts to eat two boxes of pizza instead. This "doughy is doughlightful" disposition, of course, is limited to men and specifically aimed at college-age men.

I'm not here to complain about how "mom bod" would never be considered sexy, even for those of us who actually are moms and forever altered our bodies in the process of bearing our babes. Nor will I lament a culture that makes pregnant women want to diet, per my column last week. This column will not be a platform to speak of body image issues or sexism in America.

No.

Instead, I say right on, Dad Bod. Truly. Under your horrible and highly disconcerting name is the right attitude. Having the confidence to let yourself go is attractive. Amen. Now we just need a similar movement for women!

Here are a few female body movement options, just to get the conversation rolling.

—Kool-Aid (Wo)man bod. The Kool-Aid bod exudes confidence. It's for women who don't stop at breaking glass ceilings; they knock down brick walls. It's for the woman who knows she is so sexy that upon entering any room, she yells out, "Oh, yeah!" And you know what? We can't help but agree with her. This classy broad cannot be limited to simply being defined by an apple or pear; rather, she rocks a pitcher shape. The Kool-Aid bod chick is always found with a smile on her face, decked out in her favorite shade of red. Sure, she has no neck, so her face and body seem to somehow meld into a singular sloshing middle area. But if you ask me, that just adds to her appeal. She's confident enough to consume so much sugar that she doesn't have a neck! Now that's sexy. Someone get me a glass, 'cause I just spotted a tall glass of water (mixed with packets of granular deliciousness, of course).

—Bathleisure. Young men rocking the dad bod can often be found strutting their confident, absent abs around in the hot clothing trend known as athleisure. It's for people who wear sweats, workout shirts, sneakers and yoga pants even when they're not working out. And let's be honest; our studly dad bod guys canceled their gym memberships last year. Men who don't care enough to put on real clothes are so darn attractive. But why stop there? Ladies, I say we up the game with bathleisure. Why even deal with the nonsense of elastic waistlines when we can walk around in our ratty old bathrobes and slippers? Or if you're feeling really ambitious and sexy, ladies, you can always try the more experimental fashion trend called cathleisure. Nothing exudes apathetic confidence like being too lazy to get up and fastening yourself with a catheter.

But why stop at new body trends?

—Cap'n Crunch misstache. Big is beautiful — especially when it comes to the amazing kempt mustache of the one and only Cap'n Crunch. The genius behind the attitude of dad bod is that these men are simply working with what they've got. A tad bit of grooming goes a long way when you're confident enough to rock what you've got going naturally. And there is no better example of someone's embracing his natural beauty than the cap'n's maintenance of his perfect 'stache. Which is why the Cap'n Crunch misstache will be taking the world by storm. No more waxing, dying, plucking or shaving, ladies! Grow in those upper-lip hairs. Grow them long, bushy and strong. Extra points if you fight the urge to dye your grays and let your upper lip be covered in a thick coat of white hair. Love your locks, wherever they might grow.

In conclusion: Guys, go ahead and enjoy your dad bods. You deserve it, you big beautiful animals. I'm sure that one day soon, women will also be basking in praise for promoting confidence. Give it a month. All you'll hear is: "Look at that hot bathleisure babe with the Cap'n Crunch misstache and Kool-Aid bod. Oh, yeah!"
