I am female who stutters mildly- I have been doing this on an off for almost my whole life. I have had years of spontaneous fluency, punctuated by months of mild- moderate disfluency like every year, drives me half mad it does. ​ 1. **Do you ladies think that your stuttering experiences differ from a males?** Yes and no. I think a lot depends on the severity and the situation. It seems to me that young guys are overly pre-occupied with dating and attribute all failure to their stutter. Women are more likely to attribute failed dating relationships to a host of other things like weight, looks, fuckboys, etc. I think maybe Women internalize rejection a lot more while men externalize it... as evidenced by some posts in this thread talking about how "women like to be dominated"... Bruh! 2. **Would you fell more comfortable dating someone who also stutters?** I never tried it, but I once made friend and it didn't work out. Sad to say it was a lot because of the stutter. It wasn't even that severe, it was just the baggage that it came with. It was almost like having a third person in the relationship that is super sensitive about everything and attributes all failure to stuttering, like Nah, man, you have no friends because you never want to leave your house. You are overweight because you eat at Whataburgers all the time. And you dont have a good job because you dont apply. Also, you are depressed because you won't go to therapy or get medicated.... it was exhausting. 3. **Doesn't it irritate you a just a bit when non stutters call your stuttering "cute" or "adorable".** Nope. I would rather that than people laughed or mocked me or thought I was stupid or slow. Besides, I am adorable already and hear that all the time.
