Dude, most girls start getting their "assets" when they're about ~9 or 10 anyway, so I don't see what the big deal is about May's. As the show went on, they kind of decreased (wtf XD) anyway, so yeah - I never understood why people were so obsessed over them when they really weren't that big at all.
Same with Dawn's miniskirt. I do think it is a little bit too short (like the um...shot we got in DP039, that was a little too much if you ask me), but girls wear skirts, so why can't she? It shouldn't be a big deal, seriously - it's just a skirt. o_o But if that's the "main" reason why people like her, then I gotta wonder if anybody likes her for her personality at all. -_-
So what if May doesn't dress up for Contests? I think that's a good thing - especially for (mostly younger) girls watching the show. May's confident enough to go out there and win with just her normal attire, while Dawn is showing that you must dress up and do your hair before you even get on stage. :/ Besides, Sinnoh Contests =/= Hoenn and Kanto Contests, so of course May isn't going to dress up (who knows about Johto Contests). As for Dawn being "prettier" than May, I don't see why that matters (it's your opinion, anyway) - because when it comes down to it, it's the personality of the character, not the looks, though that may be a bonus, especially if you're a guy. If that's the only reason you think Dawn is the better character, then...wow. :/ I don't even like Dawn, but she at least deserves to be liked for something other than her appearance. >>
As for their pokemon teams, May wins again for me. She had a variety of different pokemon, while Dawn doesn't (although I'll admit, the personalities of Dawn's pokemon are way better than May's). Like Haruka Chan already said, she has two water pokemon and four pokemon already in less than 44 episodes. May didn't have her whole Hoenn team, which was 6? pokemon, until the Hoenn GF.
And the thing about Dawn obsessing over her hair - it's not just her hair, it's her appearance in general. She always wants to look good, even for Contests, where it's not even mandatory, but optional to dress up. Examples are in DP009 (when she won't come out of the tent because she doesn't want anybody looking at her), DP019 (with Pachirisu, she kept brushing her hair after it messed it up), and DP029 (when the Sinnoh Now News Crew came, she told them to stop and she redid her hair, when it looked perfectly fine). DP011 and DP026 also show how she gets ready for Contests, and she was freaking out in DP011 when she couldn't get her ponytail right. DP026, she was showing off to Kengo before the Contest even started, because again, she knew that she looked "good." Though this all part of her character, sometimes I think she's a little over the top, especially for a 10-year-old. o_o;
