This is what we learn in art school too, when we have to draw women who distinctly look female and men who distinctly look male. There's no shame in drawing nonconforming characters, but there's a reason why the Disney princess line and anime girls do so well in merchandising.

I wonder how facial feminine surgery will play a part in the future, as far as digging up skulls and examining them go. I'm sure they can probably tell surgical work was done, but still.
