Others in the dwarfism community expressed different opinions. One critical scholar has said it "followed the conventions of the freak show and perpetuated contemporary prejudices in their constructions of people with dwarfism," portraying them as "incapable, humorous, weird, childlike," and "overly naïve, perhaps even dim-witted." In 2022, the actor Peter Dinklage criticized Disney's planned live-action remake of Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs as being responsible for "renewing damaging stereotypes", saying "You’re progressive in one way but you’re still making that fucking backward story of seven dwarves living in the cave.

Snow White bites into it and falls to the ground, apparently dead. The Queen then appears disguised as a farmer's wife and gives Snow White a poisoned apple. She gives Snow White a poisoned comb, but the Seven Dwarfs save her again. The Queen comes once again, this time dressed as a comb seller. The Seven Dwarfs return just in time and Snow White is saved when the Dwarfs cut the lace. When the Queen, disguised as an old peddler, ties a colorful, silk bodice onto Snow White, it causes her to faint. The Dwarfs take pity on her, saying: "If you will keep house for us, and cook, make the beds, wash, sew, and knit, and keep everything clean and orderly, then you can stay with us, and you shall have everything that you want." They warn her to be careful when alone at home, and to not let anyone in while they are delving in the mountains. She wakes up and explains to them what happened. During their loud discussion, they discover the sleeping Snow White. The Seven Dwarfs return home and immediately notice someone has snuck in, because the house has been cleaned.
