Why ‘be on the lookout’ for stuttering? Are they supposed to edit it out? That’s ridiculous - this is the way that you talk, and to remove it would be an insult to you and every other PWS...

If someone is a stutterer no matter how mild or treated, I can just clock it based on how they tell me they "stutter too". Like, I don't need to actually see or hear them stutter to believe them, the ...

“We all stutters sometimes” is annoying and I explain that it a speech impediment. But “I’m also a stutterer” is more tricky because some people are but it doesn’t show except in certain situations....

"I have met stutterers with my speech pathologist, and many of them have mild stuttering that is hardly noticeable (or they can mask it well). I believe severe stutterers make up only a small percenta...

Try using speech disorder or speech impairment to get the point across. Stutter is used too casually in society to describe all sort of things, like a TV or video 'stuttering' or fluent people saying ...

Yeah I hear you. I also am fluent a lot of the time (after years of speech therapy), which I think is why so many people assume that when I say "stutter", I mean it in the casual sense and not the cli...

I'm in the same situation speech-wise, where often I sound fluent, until I don't (usually due to random anticipation). tbh I get pretty excited when I meet another stutterer, but (I didn't make it cl...
