I remember them talking about how there are VERY few dwarf women. For some reason, a lot of sons are born. They say that even when they are women, they dress in similar clothing to men, so many think that they ARE male dwarves...and no, I would guess they don't have beards.

In the Appendix about the races in LotR (Appendix F I believe) is where I remember they say there are VERY few dwarf women, which is why the number of living dwarves so slowly increases after many dwarves have died.

Yay! I know something! See: blondes AREN'T dumb! [img]smilies/tongue.gif[/img]
