Midgets or little people?

6 Comments

So apparently midget is politically incorrect. I've been told little person or even dwarf is now the correct term but I think that little person sounds worse than midget. I don't think there's anything wrong with midget. I say dwarf now.

Little person 26
Midget 28
Dwarf 15

    The hell with political correctness crap. I was told "natives" is not correct for native canadian tribes nowdays, but when I had to do some work on a reservation I asked them how they call themselves -the guy just shrugged and said "indians". Go figure right? The more fuss people make out of this bullshit the worse it gets.

    Who decides these things? I bet it's not the people affected. They probably don't give a fuck.

    They are midgets. I agree that "little person" sounds worse than midget to me.

    I don't know , I don't really care, I just say hey dude/ette what's happening? ;P

    I use to work at a drug store and a lady (of short stature..duh! back to the story!) who came in regularly had gone to the pharmacy one day. Someone working there called her cute and said, "Awwww!" or something along those lines and she got pissed off. I wasn't there but she was yelling I heard.
