lol I know random...but im 17 and 4 ft 10 inches..and I always get called a midget -.- and I had an incident at a store where a little boy asked his mom if I was a midget...pretty embarassing :/...lol but ...what exactly is the height that would be considered one.
The standard definition of dwarfism includes anyone 4-foot-10 or smaller whose stature is attributed to one of at least 200 medical conditions that cause dwarfism.

And yes, midget is considered an offensive term, read the article.
Just being short does not make you a little person... so no... you missed the last part of the definition 'whose stature is attributed to one of at least 200 medical conditions that cause dwarfism'
I was told 4'11 too my most people...and others below..I don't know :/ it would feel somewhat awkward to b telling folks yep im a midget lol
I googled it and it said that 4' 11 and under is legally a midget. It may not be right... But that's what I got.
I know...its I've been told also that im a shortie :/ because im proportional
I've heard that anyone under the height of 4'11 is considered to be a dwarf.
So you're short... Short is cute... take advantage of the cute factor...
four foot nine I beleive.
ya I know;; and thanxx
