Whenever anyone makes fun of my stutter, no matter who it is and how funny they think it is, I never find it funny and I let them know they’re being really hurtful and insensitive. I try to combat it when I first start hanging out with someone by saying “Oh man I’m going to stutter on this”, when I feel a stutter coming. When I stutter on a word I can say literally anything else besides the word I’m stuttering on. I feel that by saying I’m going to stutter before I actually do, rules out the possibility to someone else that my stutter is a joke and should actually be taken seriously.
