Even after starring in a film that made over $800 million worldwide and getting critical acclaim, Wonder Woman star Gal Gadot still has to deal with body-shamers — but she’s found the right response for them.

In an interview with Rolling Stone about the role, the 32-year-old actress discussed how she dealt with body shamers who felt she wasn’t curvaceous enough to represent the legendary heroine.

The actress said, “Listen, if you want to be for real, then the Amazons, they had only one boob. Exactly one boob,” said the former Miss Israel, referring to a Greek mythology belief.

Continuing, “So what are you talking about here? Me having small boobs and small ass? That will make all the difference.”

Ultimately, though, Gal explains that she is most irritated by continuous queries about her gender equality ideals.

“People always ask me, ‘Are you a feminist?’ And I find the question surprising, because I think, ‘Yes, of course. Every woman, every man, everyone should be a feminist. Because whoever is not a feminist is a sexist.'” Gadot and her younger sister were raised to “to believe that we’re capable, to value ourselves,” she says. “I had a very sheltered kind of life. There was no TV-watching. It was always ‘Take a ball and go play.’ In general, I was a good girl, a good student, a pleaser and I was a tomboy, always with wounds and scratches on my knees.”

Gadot has already spoken up about body-shaming and gaining 17 pounds of muscle in preparation for the part. In March, Gadot told Glamour, “I feel so much better now. When you feel strong, it changes everything — your posture, the way you walk. I look at photos from five years ago and think, Whoa, I was too skinny. It’s not cool.”

Gadot was also pregnant with her second kid at the time of production, which necessitated the use of a green screen cut-out on her tummy to conceal her pregnancy.

“I didn’t want attention,” she explained of her decision to keep her pregnancy a secret from her Justice League co-stars for as long as possible. During that time, Gadot also had to reshoot scenes for Wonder Woman. “The default should be that women get the job done, but there’s a long way to go and a lot of reprogramming that needs to be done to both genders.”

Her cast and crew, however, eventually found out.

‘We cut open the costume and had this green screen on my stomach,’ she recalls one day during filming. ‘It was funny as hell – Wonder Woman with a bump.’

During the conversation, she also discussed times in her life when she felt undermined as a woman by males.

‘I’ve had my moments where I’ve felt like men were misbehaving – nothing sexual, but inappropriate in a sexist way. Dismissive. Life wasn’t always rosy and peachy for me as a woman in the world,’ she says.
