She can't help it that she happens to be naturally pretty!
But Fleur and Cho and Parvati are naturally pretty, too - Seamus called the Patil twins the prettiest girls in their year, and Cho's popularity is partly due her good looks, too. As for Fleur, she is part Veela - it's not her fault she's been born pretty either.
It's probably JKR trying to be logical and failing miserably, if you ask me. One one side, we're supposed to dislike girls like Cho who happen to be pretty and popular, on the other side, we're supposed to drool over Ginny, who is - surprise! - pretty and popular, too. WTF?
She's just as contemptuous as Hermione about people who care about their looks.
Um, can you point out to me when Ginny says that or does something to indicate it, because as much as I try to remember such a moment, I can't.
And far from being flirty, she pushes boys around and they correctly fall at her feet.
Are we supposed to believe this is how she got Michael and Dean, too? If yes, then we can expect a lovesick Zacharias Smith in the next book. *gags*
