It is my headcanon that all dwarves grow beards, but for cultural reasons dwarf women shave.
I think the Pratchett way where all dwarfs are bearded is cute, combined with the tradition-breaking female clothes but they still keep the beard and battle axe. I'm pretty sure Terry uses this as a nod to trans.
it's not even a subtle nod. Cheery's arc to using preferred pronouns in opposition to cultural norms is pretty blatant.
Discworld lady dwarves are based
Have seen female dwarfs, none without beards
