That’s bullshit, I‘ve served and served with other dudes with legit severe stutters. Find a different recruiter....

I tried to get into the military. They told me, "I don't want anyone who stutters protecting me." This crushed me.

Certainly a stutterer should refrain from applying at a call center or any other customer-facing role (depending on how severe their stutter is). However, I have been rejected outright and discriminat...

“For some reason they class it as a disability” Stuttering is in fact a disability. I’m not sure why so many stutterers try to deny it. A stutterer will inevitably face prejudice, social disadvantage...

I get what you mean, but that does not help. Backpain is not humiliating. Backpain does not make people feel uncomfortable when you interract with them. Backpain does not make people believe you are r...

I feel exactly the same, I have started to stutter since my 6 to 8 years old, I don't remember exactly, but since then, people have started mocking me because of it, and the thing is, people don't und...

yeah I saw him do a speech for the National Stutters Association about a year ago and now seeing how people mock him for his stutter really kinda upsets me...

Thank you for sharing this. It saddens my heart to hear the media and comedians making fun of Joe Biden's stutter. Would those same folks make fun of a breast cancer patient or someone in a wheelchair...

I saw Biden speak at a NSA conference in Baltimore years back. I was impressed and recognized the work involved to get him where he was a that time. 100% the mocking he gets is for his actions outsid...

Joe Biden

Joe Biden Im watching him on TV right now and it's clear he has a stutter. It comes off to other people as him being "slow" and that hurts me because I know no matter how successful I become people wi...

Stutterers as weak/passive stereotype

Stutterers as weak/passive stereotype Does anyone find that the tendency for people to think of people with speech impediments as somehow less assertive holds you back in your career -- or life in gen...

My memes got deleted?

My memes got deleted? I posted a few memes yesterday and today and they did pretty well but now they got deleted from the subreddit? Why is this? I didn't make fun of people who stutter, i made a rela...

The only example I can think of that isn’t treated as a joke is Bill from Stephen King’s IT. Stuttering gets so little attention and because of that, I think a lot of people see it as something to mak...

You’re not the only one who thinks that. It’s awkward sitting there watching a show or movie with people around you and a character with a stutter begins to be joke of the scene. Sometimes I think it’...

While I see and understand your point, most of what I got from this is that you haven’t had many negative reactions to your stutter (if you have one at all; if not, this makes even more sense). When y...

stuttering characters that aren't a joke?????

stuttering characters that aren't a joke????? have you ever watched a movie/show or read a book or whatever that included a character who stuttered and wasn't dumb as hell? I didn't. it's like the onl...

Totally agree. And now i have trust issues because my "friends" laughed at my stutter because they thought, its fine just a joke. Haha very funny. Keep it up! :)...

It's fucked dude...I really don't get it either it's like the only disability it's completely acceptable to make fun of...

Jerks started to make fun of me. People asking me why did I speak the way I did etc... One day I uploaded a video of me playing videogames with a friend, my stuttering and self-confidence got worse....
