>I will say that dating apps generally seem to have more men on them than women, so it seems like the odds for men are worse to begin with - and the stutter just makes it harder. Thank you for pointing out this fact. The dating experience between men and women in general is vastly different. Which why one can understand why some male stutterers request advice from other men who truly understand and can offer advice that actually worked for them. And no, your empathy doesn't come from hate. Empathy comes from understanding / putting yourself in another's shoes. Thank you for your understanding. After reading through the other posts on this thread, I'm also beginning to realize that the dating experiences of other female stutterers isn't what I thought.
