What are some ways of introducing my stutter without having people treat me like a disabled puppy dog? I've had a stutter for a long time but whenever I introduce the fact people start treating like a damn charity. The mood of the conversation flips and people treat me with too much sympathy. Girls are the worst about this. Giving too much sympathy kinda robs my self respect. What are some funny ways of introducing the fact that you have a stutter to strangers?
