Oh yes. I look at Angua and Cheery and think "oh god, what horrible depictions of women." Sybil wrangles dragons. She picks them up by the tail. Susan is the granddaughter of DEATH and could eat people for breakfast. Tiffany Aching (unless you count her as part of the Witch books) is caring and strong. Sacharissa Cripslock, for all her silly description, is a strong, competent woman.

"[Mightily Oats] wasn't very old and had a rather ripe boil beside his nose…He had an amazing smile. It appeared on his face as if someone had operated a shutter."

"The being called Twoflower was hanging over his shoulder. It was small and skinny, and dressed very oddly in a pair of knee length britches and a shirt in such a violent and vivid conflict of colors that Weasle's fastidious eye was offended even in the half-light"

"Mr Bent was in every was smooth and uncreased. Moist had been expecting a traditional banker's rock coat, but instead there was a very well-cut black jacket above pinstripe trousers. Mr. Bent was also silent. His feet, soundless even on the marble, were unusually large for such a dapper man, but the shoes, black and polished, mirror-shiny, were very well made. Perhaps he wanted to show them off, because he walked like a dressage horse, lifting each foot very deliberately off the ground before setting it on the ground again. Apart from that incongruity, Mr. Bent had the air about him of one who stands quietly in a cupboard when not in use"

From Carpe Jugulum, The Color of Magic, and Making Money respectively. Those are just the three I had in the bookcase beside my bed. I can't imagine I only have the only three with descriptions of men next to my bed.

From Monstrous Regiment, regarding how Polly wants to become a man: "THINK young male, that was the thing. Fart loudly and with self-satisifaction at a job well done, walk like a puppet that'd had a couple of random strings cut, never hug anyone, and, if you meet a friend, punch them." Monstrous Regiment itself was lampooning the entire "woman pretends to be a man" trope for 400 pages.

Iirc, Oat's boil is a running joke...
