Stuttering makes me feel stupid and inferior, but I have no reason to feel inferior apart from that. I feel like this is the same sort of myth that a lot of people get in their heads that stutterers are just extra shy or nervous people and that's why we do it. We have all kinds of different personalities and backgrounds. I think inferiority is the result of stuttering, not the cause.
