Ignore it bro. They are all non-factor NPCs and after the initial explosion of “muh bearded lady for the lulz” you’re going to see them in like 1 out of 20 groups.
If that. I’m hoping less though.

Trolls been asking for beards since the Sundering yet dwarves get them.
I say we all get beard options. And shoes. And tails. And high elf titles.

Because they literally tell you in their conversations that it’s wire adornment.
Don’t like it? Fine. But don’t act like you didn’t come here to troll, because that’s all you ever do with these hot topics.
People want to feel uncomfortable with it? Fine. But they need to stop making threads turning it into crap like this:
And all the other bs that comes up from people who just can’t get over aesthetics in life.

You have stitched up abominations of multiple corpses raised into undeath, you have regular undead with rotting corpses, you have sentient spiders, sentient dragons, eldritch horrors and tentacle monstrosities and DWARF WOMEN WITH BEARDS is where you draw the line?
LMAO

Hey we don’t choose what gives us the squick response, but it’s still valid. I mean why do you think they put an arachnaphobia mode in? people don’t just “choose” to draw the line at spiders, that’s just how people are

sure, just don’t look up fantasy dwarves outside of Warcraft.

Ah, but you see. Unconventional gender expression is so much more threatening than having your jaw hanging off your face or being an anthropomorphic cow.

Just ingrained bigotry they have no interest in unlearning. They’d rather the thing they dislike just not exist rather then realizing they’re the problem and go to therapy or something to not have such an extreme reaction.
And I think by definition what the Op is describing IS a phobia. It is an irrational fear, hatred, or disgust with something. Idk if there is specific term for it but it is a phobia.
Phobias can be treated.

In fantasy outside of Warcraft, such as Middle Earth or Warhammer, female dwarves are basically appendix entries and joke material.
Same with D&D for the better part.
Just saying. They almost don’t exist.

it’s not bigotry or a phobia, OP is very obviously trolling and doing a poor job of it

Being Woke doesn’t translate to being on display~
Well yeah I said if what they said is true it would be a phobia by definition. But they’re likely trolling. So I’ll leave to stop feedingthem.
I bet you can’t define woke.

For an actual phobia, not your aesthetic aversion as an excuse to troll.

I’m just saying, female dwarves with beards is not uncommon.

As jokes and lore that are never defined by being used as interesting characters.
Because they are not, in fact, very interesting.
They are however hilarious.
It would be much easier for any of us right now to name a female dwarf with a beard in WoW than it would be in any other setting.
Because there are no other female dwarves with beards of note.
It has always been a vague “they are there but nobody really cares.”

It means ENLIGHTENMENT…DUH~
I genuinely couldn’t understand what they were saying. I figured they wanted their very first forum post to read like they had a stroke on the keyboard.
I’m pretty sure fantasy dwarf women, on the whole, have never or almost never had beards in media. I keep seeing people bring up Tolkien as an example that did, but I read Hobbit and LotR and I don’t remember any examples of bearded dwarf women in there. There was a joke in the movie adaptation, but it was clearly meant to get a laugh, not as some progressive statement
I don’t mind unconventional gender expression in the least. I like seeing some muscular women and effeminate men thrown in the mix, I’m playing a male elf after all. The bearded women go beyond that, and I think you know they do, and phrasing it how you are is very disingenuous
