Short answer: Yes. I've seen plenty of girls with a similar shape.

No, just self conscious, the same way we all are. :) Don't stress over it, hon. You look fine. :)

You're being a typical woman, worried more about what you perceive to be flaws over your strengths. You look female from the profile.

It's not a big problem, and lots of women have it, but if you are aiming for "perfection" then your nose bridge has a big hump.

Your nose is shaped similar to mine. I have had it broken several times and have a large hump upward to it. I have the same thoughts daily. On the other hand, I see girls everyday who have larger noses and brows than me so that makes me feel a little better about it.

If I ever do get the money to do what I want FFS is one of the things I will have done.

ROFLMAO

Everyone is their own worst critic.  It matters not whether one is natal...

And yeah, I can relate to not liking profile shots- I hate don't care for mine, and the nose is, to me, the biggest issue (no pun intended).  I have never really cared for my nose and it probably has been broken in the past, but I never could bring myself to undergo the knife to fix it (and didn't have the sinus issues that would have allowed insurance to cover it if I did).  If I was going to do something about it, I probably should have done it in my early 20's when the path started in earnest...now in my mid-40's, I find myself much more *meh* about it.

I have seen women with "hatchet" noses, so I see anything wrong with yours.

You certainly do not have a really masculine nose.  It does look kind of like mine used to before surgery.  I think the question is:  Does it really bother you?  Mine always did, and when I saw profile pics of myself I just cringed.  My doc diagnosed me as a deviated septum and test showed i was blocked like 90%.  So while I was having that I went ahead and did rhinoplasty with it.  I will never forget it.  I never knew how much breathing I was missing, plus less headaches and infections.

This this and double this.

You're really quite attractive in an intriguing sort of way.

fwiw, I think your profile is *very* complimentary. You're beautiful!

My only suggestion is to darken your eyebrows slightly(don't be dramatic and draw in black) with eyebrow pencil.
