Midget Singles and LittlePeopleMeet are the two names people land on when they search for a dedicated little-people dating site, so this is the comparison that matters most. Both are built for people of short stature and the people who want to date them. The difference is not who they are for. It is how modern the experience feels and how seriously each one takes the day-to-day safety of its members.
This comparison is written by Midget Singles. That means you should read it with a degree of scepticism, the same scepticism you would apply to any platform comparing itself to a competitor. What we have tried to do is give you useful information about both platforms so you can make a decision that works for you, rather than a one-sided brief designed to win an argument.
Platform Overview
LittlePeopleMeet has been operating since 2011 and has built up a significant base of users over that time, primarily in North America. It was one of the first dedicated platforms for the little-person dating community and benefits from a first-mover position in terms of name recognition.
Midget Singles is a newer platform running on the HubPeople network, with a focus on a cleaner interface, more rigorous profile verification, and active community moderation calibrated specifically for this community. It is available globally from day one of membership, with coverage across the UK, Europe, North America, and Australia.

Membership Pool
LittlePeopleMeet has the larger established membership, particularly in the United States and Canada. If you are based in North America and pool size is the primary consideration, this is a genuine advantage.
Midget Singles has a growing membership with strong coverage in the UK and Europe from launch, backed by the HubPeople network. For users outside North America, the practical pool size is often comparable. For users in North America, Midget Singles is growing steadily but LittlePeopleMeet currently has more depth in that region.
Worth noting: a larger pool means more potential matches, but it also means more noise. Midget Singles' active moderation means a higher proportion of the pool consists of genuine, verified members rather than inactive or fake profiles.
Safety and Moderation
Both platforms are dedicated to the little-person community, which already filters for broadly appropriate intent. The difference is in how each platform handles the subset of users who behave badly despite that filter.
Midget Singles has an active moderation team that reviews reports and takes action on fetishising behaviour, offensive language, and fake profiles. The profile verification system reduces the fake-account problem at source. You can read the full details on our safety features page.
LittlePeopleMeet uses a report-based system. This is standard across most platforms of its age. It relies on users flagging problems rather than actively patrolling for them, which means bad actors can persist until they are reported.
Interface and User Experience
LittlePeopleMeet's interface reflects its 2011 origins. It is functional but has not kept pace with what users now expect from modern dating platforms. The browse-based discovery model can feel dated compared to algorithm-driven matching.
Midget Singles is built on a more modern stack with a cleaner interface, faster navigation, and a compatibility-based matching algorithm that uses interests, relationship goals, and location alongside physical preferences. The native iOS and Android apps provide a better mobile experience than the mobile web version available on LittlePeopleMeet.
Pricing
Both platforms offer a free tier with limited functionality and paid subscriptions for full access. LittlePeopleMeet's subscription pricing is comparable to industry norms. Midget Singles' VIP and VIP+ tiers are designed to be accessible, particularly for short-term subscriptions that let you test the platform before committing to a longer period.

The bottom line
If you are based in the United States or Canada and pool size is your primary concern, LittlePeopleMeet's established membership is a real advantage worth considering alongside the platform's older interface and lighter moderation. If you are based in the UK, Europe, or Australia, or if modern features, active safety oversight, and mobile experience matter more than raw numbers, Midget Singles is the stronger choice. Most users benefit from trying both and finding which community feels like the right fit.
