I remember stuttering during dinner while trying to talk to my family. My brother suddenly started laughing. His justification was that “he couldn’t control” it. He can’t control his laughter but I’m ...

It sounds like you managed well in a difficult situation. It’s so frustrating that some people feel we just aren’t trying hard enough! It might be worth revisiting this with your manager and telling...

I'm 18, my stutter can be Ethier moderate or severe depending on the situation, and yes stuttering needs more awareness. Most people don't even realize stuttering is a real thing that people deal wit...

The ghetto guy probably got robbed and jacked up, because he had a stutter....

omfg!?! If a man or boy told me even a fraction of the things you purport to say to women or girls, I'd back away slowly and find the mace in my bag. I think that for you guys ON THIS SUBREDDIT, this...

As a kid it was ”Why do you talk so funny?” or ”Why are you so quiet all the time?”. Now it’s my own set of thoughts about what other people think of me thanks to social anxiety....

Yeah this happens to me, it's annoying as hell. These ignorant people who do this just automatically assume I'm stupid or something, until after I tell them I have a speech issue. Then they either apo...

Good on you (and your prof). Dealing with someone like that for a stutter is hard enough, but calling back to complain is a whole other level. I'm glad you made her director aware. Thanks....

YTA. I can see how you are trying to be helpful but you have a superficial understanding of the problem. You don't have to be patient with people with disabilities, but not being patient would make y...

I agree, stutters are very common as comic relief. But I just can't laugh at stuttering jokes, it's just not funny. I'm not offended that jokes are being made about it, but I'm not laughing....
