Society will never accept stuttering

Society will never accept stuttering I think when it comes to disabilities (if you can call it that) Speech impediments are a league of their own when it comes to reception of other people... People fear what they dont understand. Fluent people dont give a shit. They have no clue why you just cant speak and instantly see you as a weirdo. Ive had some of the nicest and kindest people laugh at me and tease me when i started to stutter around them. It hurts. I cant believe we live in the 21st century and shit like this is so normalized, atleast where im from.
