They are in the process of making up a name for it actually on phobia list, so soon there may be a name for it

this is simply alack of knowledge-research dwarfism and find out what causes it and maybe you will be enlightened. they are people just like you-imagine if you were a little person-how would u feel? life is hard for these people and being afraid/phobic of them is like being afraid of a coffee mug, or a chair..it makes no sense. this is something you have subconsciously created without even realizing it and only you hold the key to unlock this skewed idea..

It does not matter about the proper name - just get rid of it.
Whit NLP and Hypnotherapy, now there is no reason to keep it.
