How do you define a big stack?

Let's say I had 10k in chips and the blinds are 500/1000.

Another person had 50K in chips, does that make him/her a big stack compared to me?

For example I was playing a MTT online and I shove with 66 behind two limpers.

I'm short stacked with 7k in chips and one of the limpers has roughly 20k in chips. He calls with J/10. He says he was the big stack and had to call.

I counter that if a hand is good enough to call an all-in with then it's good enough to raise with. Besides I told him/her you weren't really a big stack.

Would you consider this player a big stack?

Just curious.
