I second this comment. You either do or you don’t, if it is we a developmental stutter as a kid, that was fixed with speech therapy, okay I get it, you used to stutter. But when it’s not a developmental stutter, you don’t magically fix it. It’s life long. And again like I don’t really care if they want to use that to bridge the gap, but personally, just talk to me like I don’t stutter and listen and there is no need to claim something that is probably false. I recently found out Charlie Sheen has a stutter and he is pretty fluent, but you can tell by his pauses and slower talking that it’s actually true. If someone can claim they stuttered and spit out multiple sentences with no pauses… I’m sorry you’re full of shit!
