I don't even know what's acceptable to say these days. To meet her body isn't appealing.
agree....she could probably look good in clothes but not appealing in a swimsuit
I have mixed feelings about the idea of presenting this kind of body as beautiful. I agree that not everyone is built like a model so it's good to see different sizes of women in media. But I don't think it's a good thing when I see young women and girls who are overweight and baring their belies, etc. out and about at the mall
 
I think there's a line between promoting different body types and that's crossed to where you're promoting unhealthy lifestyles. It's probably not an issue now cause she's young, but in 10-15 years, I'd imagine her BP, cholesterol and propensity for diabetes is going to be rather high. There's a middle ground between eating lettuce all day in order to be a size 00 and living a healthy lifestyle. It just seems like we're going from one extreme to the other.
