I never really took note of the difference between Dwarfs and Midgets until I saw a picture of "KISS lite", a KISS tribute band made up of 2 Dwarfs and 2 Midgets.
I had no idea that there was a difference between dwarves and midgets until I read this thread.
I've heard little people (most generic term I know of) argue that there really isn't - that the term midget was in fact invented by circus people, and should be considered the equivalent of a racial slur. They say there is proportionate dwarfism (what most people consider to be midgets) and disproportionate dwarfism. The former can sometimes be treated with hormones, the latter (depending on the cause) often not.

My question about this article here is if this 26 year old man is psychologically adult, and if so why his parents still dress him like a baby.
