Does stuttering make you who you are?

Does stuttering make you who you are? I'm interested in your opinions on this topic. I would give credit to my stutter for me being more composed, quiet, smart, subtle sort of a guy. Many girls liked me in highscool because of me being quiet (but in more charming way). It's not all good of course. I'm still kind of shy and scared of public speaking, and still want to die when I stutter a lot. But I think that I became who I am because of stutter. What do you think?
