Unfortunately overall but fortunately in this situation where you aren't being found out: all women have to do in order to blend into the background is be pretty(for their culture/setting) and quiet f...

Yeah, I would have had to live under an actual rock to not experience the level of mocking and bullying I did.  I'm assuming OP has no other visible flaw to peers just passing by or was raised with ...

TIL Looney Tunes’ Porky Pig’s original voice actor, Joe Dougherty, had a stutter he couldn’t control. It caused production costs to became too high as his recording sessions took hours. Mel Blanc replaced him, allowing the stutter to be controlled and used comedically

This is just guessing now but since it only happens with people close to you, could be because you care so much for them? So much even that you want to be "perfect" for them? Do you feel ashamed becau...

I'm making a short film about stuttering called "Stutterbug"! Hi everyone, I'm Aidan Greene. I’m a writer, actor, and Ireland’s foremost (and only) stammering comedian. And in two weeks I will be sho...

Yeah, men definitely have it harder in that sense. For example when you want to approach a girl but you stop yourself because you know you will stutter so bad that she won't even understand what you s...
