I have been really bothered by comments about her appearance. A long jaw (such as Ann Coulter's) is often simply an ethnic characteristic, and until fairly recently was considered very attractive. Most movie stars of the 30s and 40s have long or "strong" jaws. The fashion for the weak receding chin came in relatively recently, although there was a vogue for it briefly during the 19th century as well.

Fashions in female beauty come and go. Sometimes having a strong jaw, straight nose, high forehead, etc., is considered very feminine; sometimes a receding chin, wide snub nose and low forehead are considered more attractive. But please, folks, everybody should remember that nobody has any control over whether or not they are born with society's favorite features.

Once upon a time (18th century), an attractive man was one who had a "nice leg." That was when men wore tights or close fitting pants, and men with "chicken legs" or stumpy shapeless legs were widely pitied. So fashions do change, but in no case can you chose to be born with society's current fashion.
