A midget is a word that is used to describe people who are quite short. A midget is not somebody with dwarfism; a midget is a person that has the same proportions of body parts as an averaged-sized human being. The word midget can also sometimes be used as an insult. Sometimes, the word is used for people a foot below the normal height
