Meg typically wears a beanie-like hat and glasses.
She also commonly wears a pink shirt, blue jeans
and brown faux Birkenstock clogs. She is slightly
shorter than her younger brother Chris. Meg is
self-conscious about her appearance: "I'm
so fat and gross.") She possesses a tummy
bulge, which is only noticeable when she is seen
in profile. Also, most people consider her unattractive,
with the exceptions of Glenn Quagmire, Neil, Ron
(a single-episode teenage character), and Mayor
Adam West. Her plain appearance is often used for
comedy, as many characters on the show react to
her as if she were horrifically ugly: in "Don't
Make Me Over", two people drench themselves
in gasoline, light themselves on fire, and jump
headfirst out the nearest window screaming in horror
after simply looking at her; and in "Long
John Peter", Chris lifts up Meg's shirt in
order to get Brian to vomit, which is immediately
successful. Her supposed weight problem is a frequent
comedy ploy, e.g.: after glancing at her, a carny
weight-guesser limits his estimate to "a lot";
Stewie's disturbing mental image of her wearing
low-rider jeans; her being mistaken for a sea cow
after being caught in a fishing net at sea. Another
running gag involves characters mistaking Meg for
a boy. Meg was born with a tail, which was amputated
shortly after her birth, and kept by her parents
as a memento. Meg has also confided to having unusually
large nipples.
Meg desperately tries to be part of the cool crowd,
but is usually coldly rebuffed. Because of her
eagerness for acceptance, she has been recruited
unknowingly into a suicidal religious cult, and,
later, recruited, again unwittingly, into her school's
Lesbian Alliance. However, in some episodes,
Meg is seen with a group of girls who are attending
her slumber party and gossiping about boys. However,
in later episodes, these girls are characterized
as dateless, like Meg.
