a difference to be celebrated

This nonsense about celebrating and taking pride in disorders is truly deranged.

>>>People with the condition, caused by a rare genetic mutation, have shorter limbs and shorter stature than those without it, and they deal with a lifetime of skeletal issues that often require a battery of corrective surgeries. <<<

And

>>>For thousands of little people, the short stature that comes with achondroplasia is not a disability in need of treatment but a difference to be celebrated.<<<

Which is it? Or is it celebrated because someone else is paying for the perpetual surgeries so they can lead regular lives and enjoy pride status? If some people dont need or want treatments, great. But if they need and want treatments, what's it to the dwarf community, unless it's actually a cult of victimhood concerned about potential escapees.

This nonsense about celebrating and taking pride in disorders is truly deranged.

No kidding.

They need to grow up.
