Certain physical characteristics do add to judgement. When I was still giving the Demon the benefit of the doubt in her early student days *snerk* I remember saying 'the reason she seems like a snobby bitch is because she has that kind of Roman nose that makes her look haughty'. Which is true, though it is also true that she is a snobby bitch. But I had another dance friend like that, who was shy and insecure but actually really beautiful and people used to read her downcast eyes, lifted head and strong profile, coupled with her slender pre-Raphaelite looks, as extreme arrogance. When it was actually extreme shyness.
You are kind of fortunate in that I don't think your mouth naturally turns down much. You always tend to look a wee bit smiley. Whereas unless I actually am smiling I can look very grim due to the uber-turned-down IRA sniper mouth of my ancestors. But that, combined with weeness (because yeah, you're round but you're also wee) and quick, lively speech and jokiness might translate as ... well, not bubbly but fun and nice. Which might fool people into thinking "soft touch".
