"I dont think that word is appropriate to use. Think off how it sounds to a person that has that disability"
It's the correct medical term and not derogatory. |

"Midget- under 4'11"
Dwarf - Dwarfism ( medical condition ) PC term, little person.would rather be called a dwarf than little person.little person sounds patronizing as fuck lol."
I thought exactly the same thing but i am not a little person and therefore cant really understand the reasoning. My colleague however is and says that is the acceptable PC term. He doesnt like to be named after his condition, wishes to be recognised as a person in his own right and who am I to argue.?? |
