No idea if there is any one on the site with that condition. My friend doesn’t mind the term dwarf and gets more annoyed by little person. Up to the individual.
If anyone is though I doubt they’ll want fetishized. |

For serious answers on anything like this respectability.org is always a good first place to look . A snippet from “dwarfism” included below
“ Do not crouch or kneel when speaking to a Little Person. Appropriate terms include little person, person of short stature, dwarf or LP, though it is most respectful to refer to someone just by name. The word “midget” is considered highly offensive. A little person may choose not to identify as a person with a disability or part of the disability community.” |

I once went on a date with a dwarf. Had no idea until he turned up (he hadn't thought to mention it).
He told me about the particular type of dwarfism he had and that he was a dwarf, not a midget (a term he viewed as being offensive), not a little person. |
