The Borderlands series is one of the least offensive franchises in the FPS genre. It has a very inclusive, pro-diversity vibe. There's stereotypes but they're camp and light-hearted. Ellie is one of the best portrayals of an obese character in any game I've ever played, as she feels no shame for her body and attempts at ridiculing her are met with disastrous results.
I just assumed the midgets were a result of some sort of mutation much like some of the muscle-bound giant bandits, not people who actually have dwarfism.
