I have a sloping forehead it's not really bad but you can tell. Is that a dead give away? Does it appear very masculine? Are there cis women who have sloped foreheads? Just wondering.

 There are many cis women whose foreheads slope, so I don't think it's necessarily a dead give-away. It is a more masculine feature, however.

I think that dimorphism in facial features is really something that's more complicated than listing specific features. By that, I mean I really think it's possible for someone to have pretty robust features and still look female. So within certain limits, it seems like trans women (cis women too) can often get away with having a few features that are more robust, for example having a defined jaw, flared cheekbones, slight brow ridge, etc, while still passing and even being quite beautiful. The facial soft tissue changes HRT often causes can help a ton too. Plus, according to your avatar pics you're a really pretty girl. So try not to stress about details too much.

thank you Kelly and Angel I beat myself hard when I notice something about myself I just need to have more confidence:)

I can be the same way... I over analyze my appearance and get myself all worked up and then end up having a bad day.

Well you're surely not alone, it's pretty commonplace round here hon.

Right exactly then when you over analyze you become obsessive its good to know i'm not the only one hehe.

I have been having a few problems with facial features recently, big nose, brow ridge and long face mainly. When the usual self-reassurance and be patient messages were no longer doing the trick I decided to check against reality. Googling for "woman with x" where x was the thing that was bothering me at the time has helped a lot and undone some of the damage done by the very narrow criteria usually used to judge what is a female feature.

Good thinking Rosie I get tired of all the "expert" opinions here and elsewhere, by those who would insist on cookie cutter princesses! BTW what I can see of your features seems to be very attractive and female appearing to me.
