B is a full figured and voluptuous woman.
C does not appeal to me really at all. She looks unhealthily overweight. D looks like she carries a shitton of weight under the dress but she is doing a good job of concealing it.
I am mostly attracted to B. I am not prejudiced against those who are overweight because I do believe that weight and beauty aren't always contingent on one another. That said, I don't think previous aesthetic standards (obese women were considered beautiful in the 1700's) is good justification for "obesity acceptance". Rib-breaking within corsets for tiny waists in Europe and breaking toes to make feet unnaturally small in China were also considered acceptable beauty standards back in the day, but I think we can all agree that harming yourself in that manner is wrong and quite frankly, stupid.
I'm a little surprised by the "they were right back then" logic, especially considering that it was quite a dark age for science and knowledge in general.
What does obesity look like to you?
