I don’t think it’s either. I think he forgets it’s a trauma point and repeats it because it’s interesting/different, like you might forget someone’s pronouns. Not to equate trans rights too strongly...

I honestly think it’s more “remix vibes.” He hears it and unthinkingly copies it, not realizing how frustrating it is. I mean he DOES know, since I’ve told him multiple times 🙄...

If he’s doing it intentionally then you should report him, this happened to me at my old job and it only got worse, other managers would join in and I felt forced to leave, it’s discrimination and it’...

It is absolutely unbelievable that your boss continues to mirror your stutter after you have made it clear that its not something you can control and makes you uncomfortable. The fact that you said "t...

Understanding a stutter and being respectful of another human are two separate things. Fluency would be nice but if OP can’t get there (as none of us will since stuttering is permanent), they need not...

Going to ignore the gaslighting comments above from people who have accepted that they will be treated poorly. NEVER allow anyone to minimize you. We wouldn’t mock someone for something they were born...

Stutterers have loads of abnormalities in their brains and various deficits related to that. Frankly, propagating this social anxiety myth only hurts us by encouraging morons who think that we are a j...

I get what you're trying to convey here but not all disabilities are treated equally. Making fun of those with speech impairments is still socially acceptable to some degree than other disabilities li...
