I would. He would have to bearded and wearing a Santa suit. MMMMM… Of course, if it was one of the Seven Dwarves, it would have to be Doc. WOOF WOOF WOOF.

HUGS!

For some reason, a couple of years ago I happened to read three novels in a row where the main characters were female dwarves.

The first was _Stones from the River_ by Ursula Hegi. The protagonist had a boyfriend. (It was also one of the most unbelievably excellent novels I have ever read. You all should read it immediately.)

The second was _Maybe the Moon_ by Armistead Maupin. The protagonist also had a boyfriend.

The third was _Geek Love_. I hated the book so much that I blocked it out of my consciousness. So I can’t remember whether the protagonist ever had sex with a man.

Reading the first two certainly helped “normalize” sex between a female dwarf and a male non-dwarf in my mind. In other words, after reading these books, it didn’t seem at all weird anymore.

Of course, in answer to the OP, I would have to agree with weirddave.

In my mind, when I ask this question of myself, I see the midget prostitute in Total Recall.

I gotta go with **weirddave** on this one. If we liked each other and she wanted to have sex, then there would be no problem. Same goes for parapalegic women, though there’d probably be a real learning curve on my part.

Poysyn said “Okay, I admit it, I am a bit of a heightist. I prefer men who are at least as tall as me (5’9”) so probably not, but hey, you never know."

Poysyn: me too, and I am 5’8". There is something Clark Gable-ish about a guy being a little taller… I just want him to be a little taller so I can wear heels without feeling paranoid. What is it about a taller man? Probably an unconsious sign of health and fertility for a guy to be taller. Where is (my fave) Desmond Morris when you need him?

But I guess if I cared for a dwarf, I would have no problem with the horizontal limbo, but I don’t think I would ever look twice at a man the same height or shorter than me.

Then again, they say that you marry your father. My mom is 5’10", my dad was 5’9". Interesting. Freud would have a field day.

I am SOOO with you on that one!

In fact, imagine if you will, a threesome with two Dwarfettes!

But seriously, folks, I would definitely have sex with a little person (being PC here). If for no other reason, than to have had sex with a little person.

Swear to god, I had this discussion yesterday!

Well, if she were a really _cute_ dwarf … and if she was willing to put down that pick-axe and stop singing “Heigh ho, heigh ho” while we did it …

Hijack!

Green Bean, you read _Geek Love?_ Me too, also a couple years ago. A friend who was sure I’d like that sort of thing leant it to me… I didn’t hate it, but it was one of the weirdest books I’ve ever read. Another friend of mine couldn’t deal with it, period, and gave it back to me after a few chapters. Very strange book…

End Hijack!

The brother of a friend of mine married a dwarf. I estimate that they have had sex about two thousand times. So he will have sex with dwarves, a lot.

I narrowly missed dating a little person (can’t really say “little chick”) a couple years ago: I was tempted to ask her out, but my skills with women had not yet reached their present divine stature, so I didn’t. If given the chance, I would have had sex with her. She was very cute, pleasant, etc.

I can’t, though, throw myself in with folks who proclaim that they’d get with anyone who turned them on intellectually/spiritually, whatever their appearance. For me, the greater part of wisdom gained in dating was to avoid dating women to whom I’m not physically attracted.
