I thought this to be the case when I was reading through the post as well. Men have a stigma of being more “dumb” in society while society (at least in the US) treats women in a more protective manner...

I’m sure both sides have their pros and cons. Pretty privilege is not exclusive to women though. Attractive people generally have it a little easier. Women already have trouble being taken seriously...

I think there’s always pros and cons. My husband stutters and is a very attractive man. There are situations where I’m sure that helps him, and I’m sure some people are more patient than they might be...

It's more likely that someone thinks its cute for women to stutter than finding it cute for men to stutter....

Those average looking men you mention in sitcoms I bet all have confidence in common. Someone growing up like us naturally has low self confidence. I respect everyone opinion but I have to side with m...

>*"Do you know where I can read about adults who overcame stuttering?"* I read these research studies on stuttering recovery in adults who stutter. The researchers: Sheehan, Guitar, and Yaruss &am...

Tldr but just think about how nonexistent men mental health is. I don't want to name facts everyone already knows like how men have higher suicidal rates or how naturally people are more patient with ...

As a pretty decent looking man I would say that people expect me to be very outgoing and social and when I’m not they wonder why I’m so quiet, think I don’t like them, or am stand offish. Majority of ...

Looks matter general, hence they also do for PWS. I was introvert and shy but I became a good looking young man. That made it easier to meet females in nightclubs etc which led to confidence which lea...

Vanir, Yes, all those times when you don't stutter make perfect sense. Maybe when you're angry you allow your true self to emerge, without filters. My stuttering was fully emotional. At the age of 70...

I'm 22M, and I have had MASSIVELY mixed reactions with it growing up especially between say 18 and now. I've had girls say it's cute, I've had girls tell me to "spit it out" . I've never met a woman w...

That was a really sweet comment. Thank you. I have a stutter about the same as your son. Can’t say my name; I communicate by writing things on my phone mostly. I’ve committed to becoming a software en...

Your post was really interesting to me. First, let me say that , I believe all women have it a little easier in terms of companionship , especially if your attractive. Now just because you get some1 ...

Wow, a trans person who stutters 😅. I am very curious about how much discrimination you have experienced, especially in todays “political” climate. You seem to be doing pretty well based off your com...

As a man who stutters, and who has known several women who stutter... There is definitely an element of privilege to being a female who stutters. People are much more patient with women who stutter,...

So true. Stuttering is this condition that we can't quite grasp. It's not this thing where people will understand and have sympathy. They blame it on us because they see it as something stemming from ...

Yep. When you can’t hold a conversation or explain yourself or your opinions, people view you as uneducated/dumb. I know, logically, that people that are worth my time won’t do this, but it doesn’t st...

Maybe I can shed a unique perspective here. I’ve stuttered my entire life and am transgender, so I’ve kinda gotten both sides of the spectrum at least in terms of how people treat and see me. As a g...

I had somewhat the same experiences as you. For me it actually became worse with time. I also believe that men just don't like women who stutter or perceive them as mentally challenged. I'm not saying...

I’m a female stutterer. I was very opinionated and extroverted when I was young. I was dimly aware of my stutter but was absolutely certain it would go away when I got older because I’d never heard an...
