His response was something along the lines of big ones that was at least the size of a German Shepard. So my response was "Well, is she (nodding to the woman) not a real woman because she's shorter than average?" She smacked him, agreed with me, and he turned red. Jerk.

I'm only 5'3" so I'm still shorter than average too, lol.

LOVE your quick thinking response! That happened to me once -- a woman in Petco said that as I was training my then 3 1/2 pound Yorkie pup. I was too shocked to think of a comeback!
