For the same reason black people get mad when the "n" word is used: the name "midget" signifies every stereotype little people have been trying to expunge from their lives for the past three thousands years. There is a big stigma attached to being a dwarf; not only physical problems and limitations but social difficulties as well. The rank and file of the population still think little people should be comics and actors. At this time in our society a dwarf is a lot harder pressed to achieve any sort of educational or social equality than a person of a repressed ethnic minority. Unfortunately, the level of harassment and discrimination in our society toward dwarfs is not approaching the level of acceptance that racial equality has achieved in our country.

Words have energy, they too are physical things, vibrating energy and matter. When spoken, the sound waves actually carry a certain vibratory frequency of energy that affect the person hearing that sound. Try this with a water molecule: say "Thank you" to it, take a picture (this has been scientifically documented) with a high-power microscope, and the molecule arranges itself like a snowflake. Say "I hate you" to it, it becomes very chaotic, very unorganized. We are made up almost totally of water. Everything we are and do is a flow of energy. Some can even see this energy flowing (some call it chi or aura, all the same). Be always mindful of what you say, how you act. :)

why do you want to call them Midget if you can politely address them with thier names.
Manners are the first step towards civilized communities.
Live and let live. Offending somebody and then preparing oneself for revenge is childish.

Probably for the same reason tall people don't like to be refereed to as the jolly green giant, or big people called blimps. Everyone is made differently. And we all have feelings. And feelings get hurt. How would you like it if someone referred to you as Stupid or Ugly?

Because it's a degrading term. It's like calling a caucasian male a "cracker," or calling an African American the "N" word... it's like any other degrading racial remark... That's why they get offended.

For the same reason fat people get mad for being called "Tubby" or at the very worst, when a ethnic minority is called... Think about it.

you might be shocked if a little person did attack you, wouldn't you.....do not think that because they are little that it can not happen...the bigger they are the harder they fall... and a little person is capable to winning in a fight....your question show that no one can expectt you to be kind and have respect for others, .........it is clear that you do not have respect for yourself so it is impossible to respect and treat people right...keep being stupid, you will only fool yourself....
