I have a lot of dysphoria with my brow bone, the general width of my face, my cheeks, and the width and just general look of my nose. A lot of the natal women in my family have high cheekbones, a smooth and sloped brow ridge, and a slender face. I feel like I look so masculine, and I hate how my face looks. I don't feel beautiful or female at all. I've attached some photos, and would like to know if you guys agree with me/have any advice on what I should get done.

Fleurgirl! You look very feminine! We are our own worst critic and will see things others do not. Your "blurry" pic is beautiful!

Heya
fleurgirl: In my opinion I think you look great in all 3 pictures, you do NOT appear masculine at all. I love your brows and your ear studs... looks terrific. Did you have your brows shaped in a salon or was it DIY??

By the way... you need to smile more in your pics and in real life... a genuine smile is very disarming for those who may want to criticize your looks.

Thank you, Aspiringperson! As I said to Jessica, I wish I could see myself as *not* masculine, but I just feel like I
need ffs. Maybe estrogen will help to soften my face a little bit, but I appreciate the "worst critic" wisdom. I will work on my smiling! It's just tough when I feel so out of place with my body!

About the fourth month of E, I started to noticed my smile lines disappearing. They were deep now much more softened out. It takes time and patience. Give it awhile before doing any type of surgery. You may be surprised!
