In China stutter is still diagnosed as a bad habit, not a disorder and let alone disability...dang it...

I understand what you mean and I'm the same way. I'm assuming you have no need to "fix" your stutter either. I think societal acceptance is more important than my getting some kind of speech therapy....

Thanks for sharing this 👍 I'm sure it'll help someone. Maybe I just accept that my stutter is a part of me. I mean i get anxious about speaking sometimes but my stutter is mild and a quarter of the t...

I stutter freely, am outspoken, and loud. Myth busted :D...

Stutter is an abnormal neurological misfiring if to make the story short. Just leave these garbages away from this sub and it is not funny but very offensive to PWS at all, like 'You PWS deserve stutt...

The ramblings of a maniac. You are right that it is offensive to stutterers. There are multiple influential leaders who were/are stutterers so this whole thing is nonsense. Unscientific as well....

This might be the most ridiculous thing I’ve ever read. Stuttering, which affects ~1% of the population, exists to inhibit that 1% from occupying any higher leadership roles. As if all of us achieved ...

I wouldn’t take it too personal we all make fun of certain things, if someone said to my face knowing I have a stutter though I would be pissed...

The one's who apologize are great but for me most people blame me for their ignorance bc I didn't tell them I stutter. I'm not to blame for people's ignorance. If you make fun of a person who stutters...

My own mom made fun of my stuttering for whole of my life. I didn't realise it how profound effect it had on me until recently. I'm almost 28 years old. I hate her now to the core. Instead of taking c...

Either that or people will stop normalizing making fun of people who stutter so we can just stutter freely!...

I know many people who stutter. When you start to meet others who stutter, you realize that you’re not alone… meet more, lather rinse repeat - you’ve found your tribe. And the tribe knows that there’s...
