This is a great topic for a documentary! Check out "The Way We Talk," it's about the filmmaker's experience with stuttering. I think the biggest misconceptions about stuttering are that it's caused by...

I'd really like to see outside opinions on stuttering, as I don't see it talked about in regular conversations. I'm assuming most people will say they aren't bothered by it, but never hurts to know....

I think Elon Musk used to/stutters and Rowan Atkison also had a prominent stutter. There is a list of famous stutterers somewhere out there, but it seems like their stutter either passed or withered a...

I was gonna give TLJ a go anyway, because I liked TFA and wanna see just how badly they fucked up TLJ lol And I mean, 30 seconds in a neutral light is still better than a stuttering character with mo...

I haven’t watched TLJ yet, and didn’t know there’s a stuttering character in it that is portrayed in a positive light. That’s super good news that we’ve finally got some representation that doesn’t fa...
