it bothers me slightly, yes. i think because when people say somethings cute, it’s a positive thing. and for me, my stutter has brought me nothing but negativity. so i guess it’s a “you don’t know my ...

Haven't heard that yet lol, but I'd find it annoying. I already deal with people claiming my stutter has gone away or that they've never noticed it and I find it very patronizing....

I feel that. I'm always paranoid as well and convince myself that everyone knows that I stutter so it is a pleasant surprise when they tell me they didn't notice it. Hahah your story made me laugh. I...

You're definitely not the only person who feels that way. I've only had someone say it once, and I didn't know how to react. It just felt weird. I didn't even have time to delve deep enough into the f...

Does it bother anyone else when someone says your stutter is cute?

Does it bother anyone else when someone says your stutter is cute? I(30F) have a friend around my age that likes to tell me they think my stutter is cute. It tends to be when we are talking about it a...

I thought about it. It isn't my fault that I talk like this, so why should I feel ashamed or embarrassed about it? If people have a hard time accepting that then it's their problem, not mine....

Severe stutters can really impact how you socialise, even if people don't hold it against you. I physically cannot join in and joke around in the same way my peers do. Humour is about timing and tone...

My stutter accentuates my awkwardness considerably. If I didn’t stutter I’d still be awkward, albeit to a much lesser extent....

My biggest pet peeve is having them change their tone or talk to me like I’m a kid and don’t understand what they’re saying or something, all because I stutter. It hurts. I would love for people to t...

Strongly disagree. Not being able to identify with someone’s experience and accuse someone of lying are in two very far opposite ends of the spectrum. There is no excuse. Especially from a mother of s...

Ugh I am sick that she would do that. Went through similar - I’m an adult now but as a kid my mom would always say that if I would just “slow down” or “breathe better” I wouldn’t stutter. Insanity. So...

See I’m not sure if that would work for me. Maybe I’m being stubborn about it but I think dealing with it head on with having such low self esteem will just result in a lower self esteem...
