Uh. I've dated many women. I've had relationships. I stutter, sometimes very badly. The two aren't related, really. The chicks who would turn you down for a stutter aren't worth your time. What do...

I support both arguments here in some sense. He can change how his stutter impacts him, but he can't change the fact that he has a speech disorder. There is no cure for it....
