The whole "politically correct" movement really messed up the USA and created millions of hypersentitive people & "victims" and has become a boon for the lawyers. Tell it the way it is. All of the "He called me a name" or "he looked at me funny, I think I'll sue" - get a life. One may actually BE stupid and not have a "learning dis-order" (though some do have "dis-orders"). If someone is short, they ARE short, not "vertically challenged". Telling it the-way-it-is is not a bad thing. Being P.C. is rediculous.
