I found this to be a very interesting string.  I think it is great that everyone knows their strengths and weaknesses.  I, unfortunately do not.  I do not know my strengths at all.  Could any one provide me with some advice?

Honestly, most of the stuff I listed are what people tell me. I couldn't tell you  if I look definitely masculine or feminine and what exactly makes it seem that way. Other things I have noticed  in the mirror or just never thought about it until I transitioned.

To me my voice sounds like a guy's, but everyone insists that it doesn't.  But I couldn't tell you why that is because I've never practiced having a female voice. And any mannerisms are just natural to me so I've never thought about them either. For instance I was voice chatting with Azmaria one night last year via Google + and I sneezed. She sighed and told me "Even your sneezes are feminine."  I've never noticed that.
Then there is my wife's WoW Guild members. When new members hear me chat on vent, they always ask who that girl is.
One of them has told me I sound just like his Grandma. (Don't know if I should take that as a complement or insult Since I don't know his Grandmother).

Also it might be helpful to post a photo here if you want people to be able to help you identify your strengths. But you'll be able to do that when you reach 15 posts.

I really like my eyes and my skin; beyond that I'd say I'm pretty much self conscious about most of my other features

As rough as the road to transition appears to my eyes, I also have a lot going for me (in terms of transitioning from male to female)...

-I'm only 5'7"
-small hands
-soft features
-been told I have pretty eyes
-full head of hair (at age 37)
-not a super masculine voice

I'm hoping fervently that hormones + lazer will get me to the point of getting "ma'amd"- Just need to scratch together the $ to get started...

Please don't take this the wrong way, forallittook.

The Bad: Very Tall (~6'2)

Hahahahahaha! ^^ I am 6'6", and I am exited to transition

Being tall is a blessing, mark that under 'The Good'

I agree, being tall is good. (:

I asked a couple of my GG friends to get an idea.  They said that I have pretty long slender legs, a "girls" butt, and a short torso. Hopefully more features will start to come out as I start HRT.

God I wish I still had some great features.  When I was about 13 or 14 my mom surprised me one day by saying I had great legs, and that a lot of girls would love to have them.  Wow, what happened to my legs?  C'est la vie.

got some sucky news and feel in a mood to think positively

not an mtf, but...

An "adorable" baby face.
Large almost purpleish black eyes
really long eyelashes ( I hated this at first, asked my mom to cut them when I was 5 :/)
Prominent and high cheeks from my aunt
really small hands and feet (38 Euro size, and an XS in women's gloves )
small shoulder frame
a good androgynous height (5'7.5, which is ab out the exact middle of the averages between men and women)
small  but not oddly so head (this is weird though, all my features are small like my mom's, but she's 5'2 *shrugs*)
small wrists (small as in even for a small framed girl)
a pointy little turned up nose from my mom
and a really nice skin tone from my dad and mom (mixed race)

A lot of bad stuff, still hate that I struggle with seeing myself as fat and huge yet being objectively told I'm too small and under an 18 BMI

although I have a love/hate relationship with mia kirschner, best description to said nose

You're an unusual guy, to see those as positive things. :p

I've always been told that I have a baby face - I got carded when I bought some beer recently at 49 years of age.
Very long eyelashes.
Androgynous face.
Female shaped legs.
"Cute butt", whatever that means.
Thin wrists.
Not much body hair.
