Where did the Leprechaun start, and why pick on us, Little People for the legend ?

Question

We have enough trouble just being our selves without the "lables". I'm under 4'10" and happy, I sometimes wish I was even shorter, Little People power..
The same with, elves, gobblins, evil Gnomes, ( the real Gnomes are cool), and trolls as well.
Why pick on us as I asked ?
Gee, thanks a lot..

Answer 1

I have never in my life made fun of a Leprechaun. I have friends that are little people and fairy's too. I had a Gnome friend but someone ran over him a few years back. I miss him too.
Just ignore people and don't let them hurt you.

Answer 2

I live in Ireland and would never make fun of a leprechaun! If anything i'd gladly adopt one because they are cheeky, funny and hey! 3 Wishes !!!!

As for being 4 foot 10 ... I once had a a patient who was actually smaller than you! He was 4 foot 7 but his personality, sense of humour hey! Made him at least 2 foot taller.

Answer 3

Are you a leprechaun? I'm a little confused by your question.

On a personnal level, I would never poke fun at someone who is shorter than me. In my painful experiennce the small have much bigger tempers than the tall.

My Mother is only 5ft and she scares the willies out of me.

Answer 4

I do not think any one is picking on lepracorns or little people generally they are Good giants seem more often to be portraid as bad. it is not worth getting hung up over storys that are make beleave I am sure lepracorns are under 2 foot tall do you object to snow white and the seven dwarfs ???

Answer 5

I personally would never poke fun on anyone for being short ( not too tall myself). I think it's foolish to make fun of someone because of their height, weight or any other reason.

Answer 6

Well, I'm a fish and my sister's a fairy, so I can't really pick on a leprechaun. YAY for the mythological people!!!! :)
