As a fellow stutterer and a not so good looking guy too (23M)... confidence my dude. I've strugled with confidence a lot (still do, even when I just got a new girlfriend), when I started to workout it got better (I was a fat guy, slimmed down and got fit, but got somewhat out of shape again, working on it tho) and that with a somewhat good personality does wonders. Since I was 14-15 girls started to like me, still don't know why, even when I just casually talked to them, even while being a fat slob, so being a stutterer doesn't repel women in any way, and if it does, well, they are just superficial people. So my "tips" are: 1. Build confidence, do something that makes you feel better. Some sort of regular exercise might do the trick. 2. Relaaaaaaaaaax, like one comment says " they can smell desperation from a mile away ". Just approach woman in a neutral non flirty way, then see how they respond and move on from there. 3. Try out other looks, a simple haircut can do a lot. 4. You'll find someone when you least expect it, and trust me, they won't care if you stutter or not. 5. And finally, don't get discouraged. I know that stuttering sucks but just own it. Just say fuck it. If you wan to talk or something you can DM too :)
