Um... so, are there actually any dwarven women in Vergen? Or are all dwarves in Witcher 2 men?

Women look exactly like men. So who knows, maybe you've already seen them.

Muhaha, when I saw the topic title I decided to post that...but you beat me to it. The knowledge is too common I guess. And too hilarious! XD
Remember, look to dwarven lore at times like this, The Lord of the Rings, Gimli specifically speaks of this, he tells of their beards, their deep voices and that some say there are no dwarven women and that dwarves just sprout out of the ground, which he beleives to be absolout nonsense.

It is weird though. Zoltan speaks of being weaded to one, there are no dwarven women in the witcher 1 but they went far enough to include half elves, male and female.

It did bug me quite a bit when i was in vergen.

The only time when thinking about dwarven women in any fantasy thing at the present moment, Warcraft and Eragon come to mind.....
Yes, because the women there were or elves, or humans, which are duble taller than dwarves...So imagine the scene of their honeymoon:))

Sorry, my fantasy is too strong:P
If I recall correctly, in TW1 when Geralt has a drink with Dandelion and Zoltan regarding his romantic troubles, Dandelion suggests visiting a brothel to take his mind off the situation. Zoltan responds by going, "Do they have dwarf women there?" My memory might be faulty, but I believe Dandelion replies in the affirmative. Maybe it was "they have ANYTHING you could want there."

So dwarf women are not restricted just to Mahakam, it seems, but apparently very few of them leave their homeland.
I want Dwarven hookers. Voluptuous ones with red hair. The kind that can drink a man twice their size under the table, carry them to bed, and work them over something fierce.

From what we find out (earlier or later) about the highly skilled amorous ladies of the House of the Night, they seem to be pretty good at being whatever their johns want them to be ;) There should be one or two who make a specialty of convincingly playing dwarf women. So there may not be any actual she-dwarves there.

Yes, Dandelion did say something like "anything you want there"; though he didn't say specifically they had she-dwarves, his answer seemed to satisfy Zoltan.

Hmm... I don't know if Dandelion was referring specifically to the House of the Night (he could have been referring to the Eager Thighs Brothel, or any number of other flesh-houses in the city. I'm certain those can't be the only two in Vizima!), but you make a good point! Still, it was a wasted opportunity for CDPR to show us what dwarven women look like, even if it was only illusory. ;)
They keep them hidden.

They're so desirable after all.
There are numerous sculptures of a female deity in Vergen which gives a pretty good idea about how a an attractie dwarven female should look. Maybe they live in all female collectives somewhere where they're safe, maybe the presence of females in a miners town would start fights and a bloodshed among touchy and posessive dwarves. Maybe for the next game CDPR will decide to put a she dwarf in the polish edition of Playboy instead of a naked Triss. Big Beautful Dwarven Women FTW!
In Vergen some of the npc talk about there wives.

Perhaps it was just an over site by CDP.

This. And dwarves are born from stone aren't they? Perhaps those statues are their mothers and wives... hehe
Same of the dwarfs tell Geralt "Give us a kiss!" Maybe these?
