The blog post is nice and I completely agree with normalizing stutter, but IMO the writer glorifies this thing too much. > Stuttering is a difference, not an impediment. Yes, it’s hard to stutter, and for some it can certainly feel like an impediment, but that doesn’t give society the right to call it an impediment. I’m glad if the person that’s written the post has such a positive outlook on this, but how is it *just* a difference? Fair, society doesn’t really have the right to define how much stuttering impacts our life, because they can’t experience what it feels like, but… I very much have the right to say it does impede my speech. It’s making me harder to say what I want, and I have limited influence on it. That’s an impediment. It’s not a negative phrase, it’s just what it is. Don’t get me wrong, I’m not depressed over it, but why call it something that is not? > Why can't stuttering be beautiful? Haha.
