My fear of dating as someone with dwarfism


Pani Mamuneas

This article looks depressing by the look of the title, but it is much more encouraging and profound. This article talks about a person named "Pani Mamuneas" who has a special condition of dwarfism. This person was bullied until he went to college because of his height. He had a depressing life where most girls in his school avoided him or either ignored him. He had no girlfriend, but this didn't let him down. He says that even though some people don't see him as a 'normal' person, some would consider him as a good partner. He pushed through his hard life and with the help of a TV show about dating, he gained confidence in talking to girls. This article is profound for this student with a special condition didn't matter about the judgments of his friends and strangers and didn't lose hope for what others said. This teaches me that I am myself and no one can be me. Every man is special and one is oneself. Mamuneas accepted the fact that he had dwarfism and didn't care to be like someone else. This shows that he didn't conform to the world where people look on the outward appearance, but rather he went on showing what he has and who he is, not manipulating himself. This shows the dark side of the world where people look mostly at the outward appearance. I wish the world can be like this person where they accept how they look and not be discouraged.
