Deaf Dwarf or Mignet

I'm technically a little person because I'm 4'6. From a medical classification, in order to be considered a little person, one must be under 4'9.

And, btw, the polite term is "little person". It's rude to call someone a midget.

Oh yes you are right I agree with you.

Once I was watching the show named The Maury P.....(not remember last name_) Show. The lady who is dwarf brought her story up to the show. She was not happy with the few students in school. Why???? because some student called her "Doll" and throw her into the grey trash then what happen??? They push the trash, which she was inside, downstairs in school. She fough against them for a long time. She was ok and stand on her feet. She's a dancer that all I remembered. I apolozed not remember well so that's the story that I saw on tv years ago.

I am a rubella baby, too. I am 5'3" and have small hands/feet. My sister is shorter than me. I wear size 6 shoes. Both of my sisters and my mother all wear size 8 shoes. Lot of women in my family (especially on my father's side) are short so I don't really stand out in the height department.

I first heard about small hands/feet due to rubella from Jamie Burke's website.

Then read this: Growing Up Deaf - Becoming Deaf from Rubella If you was born after 1965 as I think you are in your 20's, then rubella might not be the cause of your deafness. Try CMV at: Homepage | CDC Cytomegalovirus Better yet, ask your parents.

LOL, I love the term 'Pizza' shoes ! I can see why.... part of the footprint does look like pizza with a dot below it. My own feet are wide and it is very difficult for me to find shoes that fits me. Once I had shoes that is 5F and I never heard of an F width. Boy, that was very comfortable.

That is odd. The tv program was featuring a LP couple. The lady said that midget is offensive but dwarf is not. That had me confused. I prefer LP myself to be on the safe side. I also learned that there are about 200 different type of dwarfism.
 
Yes I agree with you bufflo I like the word Little People because it sound nice words.
