Females have bigger cocks and should be uncircumcised as they're not concerned by the covenant with God nor the one with the Corn Flakes company

Well, men and women are different. There's a reason we look at characters and can immediately tell if it's a boy or a girl - and feel that it's bad character design if we can't (unless it's relevant to the story/character).

That aside, almost all the points in your picrel I disagree with, except the female head being rounder. Plenty of men have big eyes, and smaller noses, or there are women with long heads and noses etc. etc.
The big thing separating men and women is their jaws and their brows, and a few superficial things we associate with women because of makeup (fuller lips, bigger lashes - despite men actually having fuller lashes).

Stopped reading there. Go back to /pol/.

Mainly the jawline and eye shape, I make the female jawline rounder while male one is more defined and slightly pointier

You can give women a bit of chin but the oval of the jaw should be smooth

As fore eyes again male I usually draw sharper, more square-ish

Larger eyes and smaller nose are neotenous traits and while they can make a character more feminine they can apply to males too if he's young

Eyelashes, rounder eyes and long hair help to differentiate but again not gender exclusive
>>
>>7897089
By drawing only female characters, I avoid this problem entirely.

When I start to draw for real and publish stuff on socmed I'll probably just do whatever I want depending on the character's character and whatever side my cock's leaning towards that day. The dream is to be able to draw a wide variety of body types within the gender rules so I can break them at my leisure.

BASED.

women
thinner necks
rounder jaws
bigger pupils
thicker eyes
thicker lips
the nose is like... it receeds into the face as a deeper angle (hard to describe) men have noses that sort of stay a straight line up into in-between the eyebrow

Thanks for your support...

I dont really know desu, I kinda wing it despite having spent years studying it,

Both characters here are main though obviously only one is dicernable
>>
I tend to give amab characters a subtle tell , be it broader shoulders, stronger features , i also have an entirely different mental library of features dependant on birth sex , but it's not un usual for me to deviate from time to time.

I would turn the one on the right in to my waif

>>7897089
The left only looks more feminine because they gave it eyelashes and a cat mouth. Obviously both of them. Infact if you crop it, right looks like it could just as easily be a woman
>>
>>7903786
right has a long mid-face, you can't make that look feminine, even IRL

>How does /ic/ go about differentiating their male and female characters?
smaller eyes and more detail for the guys. Probably more exaggerated sexual dimorphism than in real life but not by a lot.
>>
women get breasts, men get dicks. faces stay the same
>>
Distinguishing males by smaller eyes is a such a poor approach. The eyes are always the most engaging part of the face. Those one or two exceptions found in the wild mean almost nothing compared to the sheer number everywhere

Fucking grim man
>>
>>7904431
Just wanted to add, those squinty eyes with "heavy details" are simply unattractive. You cannot psyop me into not believing this otherwise

The male sex of the human species is the the "additive" sex. That means the virilizing effects are attributed to the male sex hormone (the inverse is the case with clownfish, hyenas and many invertebrate species!). Females have the "standard" skull of the human species. It's testosterone that changes the shape of the bones, therefore male is an "additive" sex.
To draw a man's skull, imagine a "normal" female skull. Then add bony growths on the brow line, the edge of the cheek bones and jawbones. (A basic medical study can be done if you really want to know exactly how the bone growths form into shape.)
