shorties

The vertically challenged

Shorties is the plural of shorty, an informal term for someone short in stature or, affectionately, a child or younger person.

In hip-hop and urban slang, shorty often means an attractive woman or a girlfriend: He was out with his shorty last night.

The spelling shawty reflects pronunciation in some dialects.

Shorties can also refer to small servings of alcohol or short cigarettes.
