One of my DSs has a condition that means he is very small and will likely be just over 5 foot as an adult. He is otherwise healthy and is a kind and bright child, with a strong and outsize personality that will hopefully serve him well in future.
However I do see that already as his peers start to grow around him, things are getting harder. Small men are the butt of quite a lot of jokes.
My SIL was over today and made a joke about Trump's small hands. I am just so tired of these types of comments, so instead of laughing along I said that he's awful, but that it's no more ok to call out a male politician on his hand size than to call out a female policitian on her waist size (in fact even less appropriate, as hand size, height and penis size are completely unalterable). She laughed at me, said I was touchy and DH thinks I should apologise.
I know I'm far more sensitive than usual about this, but am tired of these jokes, and how many generally sensitive and 'woke' people think that they're ok. Or is DH right that I risk making it worse and should put up and shut up and focus on making sure that DS sees it as silly?
