I suppose indiviuality was the wrong word, but what I meant is to me dwarves are genderless, they both think the same, anatomically they are the same, so who cares what gender they are (do dwarves have penises   :o)

On second thought, individuality wasn't a bad word... right now dwarves are simply their professions, the dwarves might as well not even have names, the only thing that is important is their proffession, adding the ability to discern male from female would make each dwarf more unique.

Dwarves have no sexual organs, but wrestling would be more fun if they did. Never has the word [INTERNAL] carried so much meaning...

I agree with Urist. Steampunk is like Darth Vader winning Holland's Next Top Model. It would be awesome but not something I'd like in this game.
Unfortunately dying involves the amputation of the entire body from the dwarf.

Well, only the females have and carry children, and marriages (and I assume romances) are always male and female. On the other hand, the new countess will happily accept the countess consort of her predecessor :D.
I agree that it can help, but it's not necessary: hair styles can just as well be linked to gender. It's completely optional anyway, so it's guaranteed ok for everyone and a bit of a moot point.

I want to mod this in RIGHT NOW, simply so I can get the text Urist's left testicle flys off in a bloody arc.

Don't be silly, the combat log would say:

Urist smashes the Dragon's left ear with his middle-left testicle.

That is completely absurd, Dragons don't have ears.

If you mod balls in, remember to make them a ranged weapon. We can have cases of the "magic testicle" discussed on the forum. With this and the "joints mod" going on, we could create the "anatomically correct mod".

How did this go from "beards" to "testicles"?

Do dwarves have pubic hair?

It's a valid query. Realism is an integral part of the game, whether dwarven balls are hairy is an important question of canon

You can still adjust that by concentrating on the beard.

I look forward to the day where the king can order mandatory monthly epilations for the whole fortress, and things like that.

No dwarven king/queen would ever demand such a thing. To do so would be the greatest dishonour, and he/she would see him/her self thrown out of command pretty quickly.

He obviously was insane, and lived the rest of his life between the animals in the hills. And that was the origin of the naked mole dogs.
