I’m sorry this even has to be a question. I’m gonna say, as a woman, I wouldn’t judge that AT ALL. Not even a little. The women that count in your life, will not care. And turn it around and think about it; if a woman had a stutter or other speech impediment, would you be turned off by it? People are more understanding than one would think. I have flaws too. I have adhd and have had depression and anxiety for the majority of my life and I don’t think men don’t like me because of those things. And you’re not alone with feeling like you’ve missed out. I was bullied my entire school life so severely that I had to be homeschooled the last two years of high school. I know it sucks but at least we have made it past that! Sorry if I’m kinda rambling. All I’m trying to say is things aren’t so bad. Don’t be afraid to get out there. Don’t let something like this hold you back. You are more than a guy with a stutter.
