I don't think stutter is any singular factor on the way I am today. There are certainly many situations in the past that are part of the overall direction I've developed in, and stutter figures into some of that - but it's not at all certain to me that stutter necessarily has an impact on development, merely by being present in a situation. I don't know how we'd even track that, to be honest. We could do a big study and pick out tendencies in stutterers, but that wouldn't reveal a "formula" to their life path, where stutter fixates anything. It'd just show what kind of mix of things people would be likely to have. So, I guess what I'm saying is that I don't know that stuttering has straightforwardly impacted my personality in any way I can easily tell. Perhaps it's not even fruitful to look at it that way.
