Can You Marry a Dwarf?

To see a dwarf,Some people say they are scared, while some say they are irritated. Even some say are evil. To these people, the question of getting married with them does not arise. Some people don't think evil but they can't associate with them. This critical discrimination looks natural and permanent because of the general ways and believes people have for them. Some of these problems are genetically proven such that their offspring normally resemble them. In my opinion,the society should just ignore these hatred and unnecessary discriminations and embrace them so that they can be integrated in the society.

I can't marry a dwarf, but i can mingle with them and can make friendship with them. They are like us. They also have all kinds of feelings like other human beings. Because of genetical disorder they became dwarf. Is that their fault? Let them live. Give them consideration. Some people like to tease them. It is illegal. All people are not alike. Some are good - some are irritated. Some people do good - some do evils. Do you think that all irritated and bad people are dwarf?

I think most people would instinctively claim that they wouldn't marry a dwarf, but this is because of the stature difference. As a woman I would like my lover to be taller than I am, but the funny thing is, we don't choose who we fall in love with. I'm single, unattached, so it is a possibility for me to meet someone that is a dwarf and fall in love, although right now I can't imagine it happening. As to my consideration, I regard dwarfs as normal human beings and don't treat them any different than I would any other human being. There are too many people out there that have some disorder or disease, that make them look different, that treating them differently is irrational, but then I was brought up to respect all kinds of people. O, by the way a "normal" couple can have a baby with dwarfism and dwarfs can have a "normal" baby, so tell me where would you like to draw the line. Treat others as you would like to be treated yourself.

yes you can still marry a dwarf. They are stil humans only that they have genetic problems. As long as you love the person. And If you know the consequences of geting married with such person. But you must be ready too that there is a 50% possibility of having a dwarf kid too.

As I am married, the question of marrying a dwarf does not arise. But I think it is easy to commit something and it is more easier to break that committment. I personally have feelings for dwarfs and think every responsible citizen of a society should have the same for those.

why not??. thats a question right. we are humans that can feel love anytime. we cannot question love. so every person has the right to love and no matter what is the size,the looks of the one she/he loves as long they love each other thats the most important of it.

I don't have any problem with small people but I guess I would feel weird with a man who is smaller than me. i don't think I could have a relationship with him. don't misunderstand me I don't consider myself superior but I don't think i could feel attracted to him

Yes, you are right, there should be no discrimination and we should embrace them with open heart I agree with you that it is a genetical problem and should not be hatred, we should not think them evil or some thing else, they are just like us, Human, just have minor genetical disorder otherwise they are perfect human with great minds Thanks for sharing nice thoughts...:)

To be honest it is difficult to marry a dwarf for a male or female.If somebody has done it then they should be really appreciated. I have apprehensions about the kids, how would they be ? If they carry the disorder their life also will be ruined. Sorry if I had hurt somebody, I doesn't mean to be harsh. Thank you.

Well being honest, I may be a bit apprehensive at first just because of all the issues that could arise. But on the whole, if he has the same interests as me, is funny, kind and sweet and has a great personality in general that I don't really care. I know its a very cliche hing to say but I can say this from personaly experience; I have strongly liked guys who at first glance, I may have been a bit repulsed by but once I got to knew him, I really liked.
