Default Where are the dwarfs?

I was watching one of those do your house up things on the UK TV Foxtel channel the other night and there was a dwarf working as a carpenter in the programme.

I have been here and not seen one in 2 years but in Blighty they are not that rare a site eh?

Another thing - and this is a bit controversial. You never see any nice looking 'full blood' abbo women. why?

Visit a few different states and you will. Try WA for starters.

Alternatively (since I see that you are living in QLD), take a trip to Palm Island.

I won't be watching it..

I'm not usually racist, sexist...or anything else 'ist' ---but dwarves give me the creeps ......sorry.

I think it is that historically they have always put themselves in demeaning positions..

I think that historically, they haven't had much bloody choice in the matter.

One of my work colleagues feels the same way as you about dwarves - and midgets too, for that matter - though he can't explain why. Somewhat paradoxically, he does confess to a morbid fascination with "little people."

He also has a theory that there is only one midget on Earth. "He just gets around a lot."

The lady doth protest too much, methinks. I'm not getting stroppy.

What brought that on?

You swore at me....didn't know if was a normal 'bloody' or an angry one sorry - you don't usually answer any of my posts....so don't really know you....how PC you are..


BUT....I do think that they have allowed to let themselves be put in that position ...to be taken advantage of
