It’s been considered offensive for several years.
Offensive or non-PC? There is a difference. How would it be offensive? To me, offensive refers to a word that was created to belittle someone, for example:
Oriental to describe an Asian is non-PC
Slant-Eye or Chink are very offensive
(Hope that is ok here since using as an example)

Would you use the Nword next to wrestling?

I know you were making a point with this, and it was effective. But now I can’t stop saying it in my head.

To me, midget described little people with certain features, large body, small limbs, etc.
A dwarf is someone with all features equally proportioned, but just small.
What is a gnome?

Why does this board get so fricking stupid when a simple topic with just some discussion is started?

Well some folks are saying that there's a difference between dwarfs and midgets.

That's the point I started this thread.
Non-PC vs Offensive.
How is midget offensive? I think it's just non-PC, or is there a difference?

I'd ask one myself, but I have a hard time not looking down at them.

I am clearly not up to speed with PC words. I assumed dwarf was bad.
So I guess I can’t use the “C” word now when a girl is rude anymore?
Before you SJW’s get offended....lighten up. It’s a joke

Someone can be “offended “ by anything at anytime these days. Half of the time it’s completely made up.

This is the OT. No one gives a shite.

Tell that to the guy that equated me saying midget wrestling was just lke saying Nword wrestling.
That’s one hell of a leap. Can’t make that jump with out being a full blown SJW and just waiting to be a PC Bros.

Well, she's a woman, so that may explain a little bit.
