A shawty remains a cutie, overweight though
美女再胖也是美女
Dong Cuiting, a famous web celebrity, is known to us for her pretty face and soft-fat stature. Quite chubby as Dong Cuiting is, she is drop-dead gorgeous (倾国倾城；极美艳的) for sure as she is an admirably plump and well-rounded woman with regular features and the tender skin, even outshining Yang Guifei.
网络红人董翠婷因为其美丽的外貌和微胖的身材而被大家熟知。董翠婷虽然有点肥胖，但她确实是一个不折不扣的美女，五官端正，皮肤滑嫩，丰腴秀丽，甚至可媲美杨贵妃。
So believe it or not, many modern ladies are put to shame but with the envious, jealous and hateful admiration for her.
相信会惹来不少女孩或多或少的羡慕吧！
At a mere glance of the photo of Dong Cuiting, a cute but fleshy lady, one e-friend can not help exclaiming with admiration, “Holy shit! A true beauty is after all an eye-catcher, overweight though, so a lady can not be merely deemed beautiful or ugly by judging from her body weight.”
看到胖美女董翠婷，一位网友只想说：“哇靠！！！美女再胖也还是美女，所以我们不能总是拿胖瘦来评判女人的美丑！”
Nowadays, modern ladies make a fuss about (大惊小怪) slimming when it comes to health.
时下，女人最关心的健康话题就是减肥了。
“Overweight or Obesity” seems to be in the nature of an eternal target of the universal abhorrence in the eyes of modern ladies, who feel greatly distressed and disgusted, thinking that overweight is an indescribably secret agony and a great headache or a pain in the neck(烦心事). So many women try to play hard (不择手段) in running off excess pounds at whatever cost.
“肥”对女人来说简直像千古奇冤，就是一种说不清道不明的心口之痛，所以，女人为了减掉身上多于的一点脂肪，往往不择手段。
However, little do modern ladies imagine that overweight was the soul of beauty when Yang Guifei lived as people took overweight as the standard of beauty. A beauty is a cutie no matter how fleshy she is! By the same token (similarly), an ugly lady is anyhow unattractive no matter how slim or slender she is.
这些女人没想到，杨贵妃的时代可是以肥为美。美女再胖也是美女！同样道理，丑女即使再瘦，还是丑女。
Let's be honest here, we have to admit that a pretty-looking lady is a beauty no matter how fatty she is, just like Yang Guifei and Dong Cuiting.
说句实话，我们不得不承认：是美女，即使再胖也是美女，就好像杨贵妃和董翠婷。
So with that being said, a person, overweight or thin, good-looking or ugly-looking, should straighten out his or her mentality, smile and feel happier in life and work like a horse for better performances.
所以说，人无论胖瘦美丑，都要摆正心态，快乐面对生活，勤奋工作。
As long as you have a soul of beautiful heart, stay positive and optimistic, tenderly care about your family, cherish your work and devote yourself wholeheartedly to it, and take delight in offering good deeds to others, you can also win the respect and love from others even though you are overweight and ugly as a stick (相貌丑陋).
只要有一颗美丽的心灵，乐观向上，爱家人，爱岗敬业，乐于奉献，即便是相貌丑陋，照样能赢得人们的尊重。
