I'm 5'3". I don't consider my self pretty, but I do think I'm attractive and sexy (specially when I "package" myself nicely). And I have curves in the right places (considering I'm Asian).
I think people who have good genes are considered pretty, but I'm not... I used to be an ugly duckling when I was in my teens and I got teased a lot because I was so ugly.
Now that I've survived my ugly phase (and gained my self-esteem and confidence back) guys are drawn to me, and they find me sexy (not everyone thinks the same, of course). Also, some say that there's a quality in my eyes that they can't quite describe that they find attractive (must be the Neptune influence).
My girl friends have complimented me that I have a nice body, and that I'm cute and charming. But there are girls who think that I'm ugly, and they just can't understand why guys find me attractive. Sometimes, I don't either.
Also, I don't know if it's my Neptune influence, but I don't photograph well. I feel like I look good in pictures only once in a while.. I think my attractive quality has more to do with how I move and act and talk, rather than purely my physical.
