Serious replies please.
Here are a few pictures of me when I was in France.

I think you look great!!! Looking good. Keep it up. How was Paris? Still dirty? Every time we went to Paris we found it dirty and the city workers went on strike every 4 hours
i think so

@930310 Well, it sure looks to me like that you convincingly passes from viewing your posted photos. Your hair and appearance are definitely female....
That is so good that your voice passed without even trying, that can be a problematic feat for many transitioners even with voice therapy.
Thank you for sharing and posting.
Hugs,
Danielle

The general fears I have about my face are my brow ridge, eyes and scars which I consider quite masculine.

You passed. Contrary to many peoples opinion some women, more than people think, have brow ridges and anyone can have scars. Scars are not a male thing. Scars are just part of your life story.

I think that in your photos you look very pretty and feminine. Your brow ridges are not prominent, and I didn't even notice them until you mentioned them. Your eyes do not pass as male; I see them as 100% feminine. Anyone can have scars, male or female.
The only thing I can't judge is your voice. You say your voice passed, so I would think that you did indeed pass.
I've been doing voice training for about three weeks now but I feel that the high pitched voice that I can produce is too thin so I am sticking to my regular voice which is a bit nasal. The reason I asked here was because I was in France with my father and he kept correcting the people that I was male and ruined a lot of my enjoyment there...

You certainly did pass! 100%!
Go you!

I would say you definately passed
Thanks all for the encouragement!
:) Great, How could you not pass?
You absolutely passed, without a doubt or a second glance. I'm happy for you!
Well, you certainly appear female to me.
However, I noticed that your profile listed your preferred gender as "Q".
Do you mean queer or questioning?
Many young people have an androgynous appearance based on societal expectations. We often do not grow into our extreme masculine or feminine appearance until much later in life. Since you are young, thin and have very long hair these are typical female expectations. Also, keep in mind that your winter coat has hidden most of your clothing that defines male or female dress.
How you chose do do with your life and how you want to live it is something all young people need to do.
I am a late transitioner and I am now comfortable for the first time in my life. I am also dealing with the consequences of try to fit in with my assigned gender from birth. I wish I had transitioned much earlier.
You look 100% female in those pictures :).
You look great.
