If I were a little ****** fella one of these would be offensive and it isn't the politically incorrect one. I have a hard time correcting my nieces ornephews

"shh...it's not ******. It's little person" One makes me laugh, the other makes me just want to rub their head and make a wish.
 
Yeah I understand that. That is why I said ''if I were a little ****** fella.' It just seems weird to me that the politically correct term seemsoffensive.
 
I've always had a very hard time not staring at them. i feel bad for it, but I just can't help it.

My ex was deathly afraid of them, there was one who was a security guard in the Walden Gallaria Mall, she would sprint in the opposite direction everytime shesaw him. One time he snuck up on her and was standing next to her when she realized she screamed, hit him and jumped into my arms... Funniest/Sad/MostEmbarrassing thing i'd ever been a 3rd party in.

It'd be cool and convenient if Jenna Elfman was actually an Elf.
 
so are dwarfs taller than midgets? or is it vice versa? or are they the same things?
 
im 6'11'' and i get called everything, so anything goes for the opposite end in my mind
 
does it really matter? they are only half of a person anyway...

Midgets are specifically dwarfs with features proportionate to their little size. Dwarfs are the little fellas with stubby arms and the biggerforehead etc..
 
That OP started off ALL BAD. That's like saying, "If I were a big lipped $%## I wouldn't be offended by...."

Man I can't stand short people because they have horrible personalities and attitudes (Napolean Complex?). Imagine hanging out with a ******...

Not at all. To me, the politically correct term seems easy. It seems almost void of scientific exploration or technical terminology. That is rarewhen usually stating the PC term for anything.

And "***" is just an abbreviation...

They key is, if it offends them, don't use it. and it does apparently. I agree with you for what it's worth,but it ain't worth much. If they prefer L. Peezy, L. Peezy it is.
