It's interesting that I consider my non-stutterer persona to be my "real self", not the stuttering one. So you're basically talking about being a "happy stutterer", which is great if it comes from a genuine place. Not my chosen road on my stuttering journey, though, but I agree stuttering is not shameful or bad. I support tolerance but also tolerant to those people who might feel uncomfortable if I struggle with words, and they have right to do so.
