ALL THE NORMAL HEIGHT AND TALL PEOPLE, LISTEN UP (OR DOWN):

1. We are not your arm rest.

Do you not realize that it's very condescending and rude for you to put your arm on our head and laugh? People have been doing it to us since they realized we were short. It's not attractive. We will probably want to kick you in the kneecaps after. (And yes, we CAN do that).

2. You need to stop calling us "cute" or "munchkin."

If you're calling us "cute" because we're shorter than you, you can stop right now. Just walk away. Just like the arm rest thing, it happens all the time. You're insulting. Munchkin? Seriously, don't get a short girl started on "munchkin." Your Wizard of Oz reference isn't funny.

3. Do not ask us id we are a legal midget (even if we probably are).

There really is nothing to say here. Even if we were a legal midget, it's a) none of your business, and b) none of your business. Worry about yourself.

4. Do not underestimate us because of our height.

The "cute" thing goes a long, hard way. People don't realize that once they classify us as "cute," they might be classifying us as being incapable or naive. Just because we may look like we're not a college student or grad, doesn't mean we don't go to college or have a degree.

5. Half inches in our height are important to us.

We're really small. We take pride in that extra half-inch. It makes us feel taller. Don't give us crap for stating that we're half an inch taller than you think we are. Again, you will probably get kicked in the kneecaps. Every short girl will agree that you deserve it.

Plus, we get Kristin Chenoweth, Ariana Grande, Kim AND Kourtney Kardashian, Nicole Richie, and more. We win.
