In the century of political correctness, could somebody tell me the how to describe a Dwarf.

[ummmm]

A dwarf.

[Mamyalynne]

Dwarf/Dwarfism is correct.

DTC, please read FAQ's before you post offensive comments in future.

[Old_Geezer]

A little short.

[Mamyalynne]

Sapelesam, I think your question is fair, this is an interesting read and a good video too.

Hate it when I miss replies that get removed.

DT's short fuse I think.

[DTCwordfan]

no, just being succinct and suggesting using a reference book, talbs.

[sapelesam]

Thanks Mamyalynne, that was an interesting article. Hard to believe that people can behave like that.

[sapelesam]

When you don't have reference books to hand you turn to Answerbank.

[ummmm]

DT...I kinda think its you being a twit.

[sapelesam]

Why?

[sapelesam]

Hi DTC, funny how the link that you posted doesn't answer my question.

It was amazing to see what the young man went through and that is of course repeated across the World - sad really.
