Wonder Woman actress Gal Gadot is setting up a good example for girls everywhere to not let anybody make them feel inferior about their bodies and to feel confident about themselves.

Gadot received a lot of criticism about her "skinny" figure especially with DC's Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice in full production swing but the actress has learned to shrug it off and simply deemed all the negative comments hurled her way as "empty talk."

"They said that I was too skinny and my boobs were too small. After they asked me here, In Israel, if I have eating disorders and why am I so skinny - they said my head was too big and my body was like a broomstick - I can take anything," she told Robot Underdog in an interview. "It's just empty talk. I understand that part of what I'm doing means being exposed. And part of being exposed is being under fire."

When she was younger, Gadot admitted that she would have lots of difficulty dealing with criticisms. As she matured, however, criticisms began to amuse her.

"The true amazons had one boob so it wouldn't bother them in their archery. So it's not going to be like real amazons. We always try to make everyone happy but we can't," she said.

Gadot is more focused on the acting involved in her role as Wonder Woman, which she considers as a "once in a lifetime opportunity."

"I'm so grateful and I thank God every day. I want to devour it and enjoy every bite," she said.

The actress said that she longed to play the character even before she knew about it. When people asked her before what her dream role was, she cannot give a direct answer. She knew she does not want to play a damsel in distress because she does not like movies with women waiting to be saved.

So when Wonder Woman finally came along, Gadot found a character she felt proud to portray. She stressed that the roles given to women in Hollywood should send out an uplifting message - that even women can handle tough situations.

Undoubtedly, Wonder Woman is definitely no damsel in distress. In fact, Gadot considers her as "the strongest most empowering woman ever."
