On the one hand - big boobs, small boobs, big dick, small dick, short, tall, fat, thin, young, old, whatever quality, people have been happily fucking for the entire history of the species. Internet outrage at any given body type as being unacceptable is akin to virtual media eugenics and is stupid.

On the other hand - big boobs, small boobs, big dick, small dick, short, fat, tall, thin, young, old, what quality, I tire of both the media and its detractors telling me that I MUST be arbitrarily aroused by any given person because it satisfies a given narrative. This particular person is not sexually attractive to me not because of body size but because I'm old and she looks like a child to me.

Love who you want to love, fornicate with whichever consenting partner you wish. Take love where you can find it, and be happy when you can attain it.

On an unrelated note, one of my favorite lines came from Barbara Ehreinreich, though I can't recall which book, and I'm going to heavily paraphrase as I don't recall the exact quote: "The media was horrified to learn that elderly, wrinkled, fat couples were rolling around in bed together and enjoying it."

I don't think anyone is telling you that you have to find her attractive? It's more a complaint at those people who say that she's unrealistic as a love interest and that no-one could be attracted to her, which is simply hypocritical misogyny.

WRT the last paragraph, I've always liked James Joyce's love letters. Sex and body image has become far too sanitised in media in my view.

As long as it's between two consenting adults I really don't give a shit.
