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. >.>
