How do you talk to a dwarf?

do you get down on one knee? squat? or just stare down at them from above?

an exercise in tact and diplomacy

My husband says you pick them up.

He's going to hell.

does Canada Immigration know this? Canada may already be over represented in hell.

There was no such question on the application form so I think we are ok.

I'm pretty short myself, so I've had no problems with just talking to small people/dwarves/etc (so many people prefer different terms when it comes to describing themselves) normally - as in I just stand like usual.

There's this one guy Steven who's a midget (by this own description) who I've tried to pick up at the pub a few times (he's fucking hot, not even gonna lie). When we chat, he prefers that I sit at the table while he stands.

well there is (or was ) a medical difference between dwarf and midget I believe. Something to do with the way the rest of the body is proportioned.

Ah ok. We've got a fair number of small people in my town that have different medical issues, so I always get confused as to the terminology.

Pick him up as in pull or pick him up as in physically lift him off the ground?

If the second, that's pretty funny.

I haven't done it since I was a kid, but probably the same as talking to a kid- stare from above.

Being that I am well over six feet tall m'self, I carry around a collapsible stool, so that the lesser beings may step up on so we can speak face to face, or at least closer to face to face.

Also I have a bad back, I'm not bending over for those fuckers.
