Like sorry I’m a little person & my bf is not, but I’m 21 years old not a child. Could’ve came up to us & asked if they were so concerned.

wait ur a midget?
This is like asking a Black person “are you a n-word?”
Sounds false
Isnt tiny just a synonym for small? Also an adjective, so wouldnt it be more like asking a poc “are you black?”
Tiny gets used like that? Damn, I’m behind.
Oh damn, didn’t know, I’ve seen it actually be used way more than the n-word.
Yeah, the terms to use are little person, dwarf, person with dwarfism.
What about midget?
Wait, dwarf is fine? I would have thought dwarf would be more offensive then the other one.
Being fair, that might fly with you but I know of short statured people who get really upset at being labelled a dwarf.
Each person is individual, of course… Its hard to say something that won’t upset someone.
I know a guy who prefers midget. There is no universal safe term to use which is why i just dont label it (which can also be insulting in its own way.)
Yeah I was about to say, over here that’d be a serious insult to use. >.>
