Reproduction rears its ugly groin in the mammal world whenever signaling chemicals are dispersed. Triggered by cell maturity, these pheromones and unfairmones (hormones) are secreted at opportune times to propagate the species and occasionally experiments with variants. In the Homo Soup-ian species, many brews have emerged, and a planet containing mutations are constantly created. Scattered among these experiments are people who are 4 feet 10″ tall or less at maturity and are known as dwarfs or dwarves. The shorter (?) version: “dwarfs” is more commonly used. Achondroplasia is the genetic term for people of limited elevation, and approximately 400 are born in the US every year out of 3.6 million children. A recognized disability, the fact of being vertically questioned in a world designed for 6′ tall people, can be challenging, to say the least. Imagine yourself in the land of the giants and walking into a room where the light switches are a foot beyond your reach, the chairs require free climbing techniques to ascend, and beverage cups are bigger than your torso. In this world, upright minimums and plumb-disputed activities will severely hamper your mobility, and you will not find life very rewarding. One other point that is never mentioned when discussing people who are feet below their counterparts is the act of communicating. Not only is the act of being looked down upon by the individual, who is conversing with the dwarf, belittling, but the unfortunate miniscule man must look up into the mucus infested nose hairs of his disgusting discusser. That, and being face to face with the taller person’s genitalia is degrading. After all, it was defective genitalia that created that wee being in the first place.
