Yeah it's insane. Especially because I stutter like crazy and have no issues finding people. Stuttering does not matter to people, it really doesn't. And if on the rare occasion it does, it says more ...

You sound very frustrated! But also maybe you would benefit from looking into some information written by professionals in the field, lots who also stutter too! Also, pretty sure the DSM talks abou...

It’s not the stutter that’s preventing you from getting women, the amount of bitches who find it endearing is suprising, and if u think it’s some major blockade of finding love, you’re wrong🙏...

I don’t think it’s a misogyny problem as much as it being more common in men, and with traditional gender norms being more negatively skewed to men with a stutter opposed to women as men are supposed ...

Oh I completely understand, im a man and some of the mindsets some of these guys have make me feel uncomfortable as well. There too caught up in how others perceive them instead of being happy with ho...

There most definitely is an air of misogyny and even a couple of incel like ideologies that come through here often. I think most of it boils down to a lot of the guys in here feeling like they have i...

I'm always hesitant to comment or post on anything because I see comments that like to blame women for not dating stuttering men. As a queer woman, it's hard to relate to any experience like this beca...

Yeah there's the whole "my feelings are valid and fuck you for being happy" crowd and then there's the "how tf will that attitude help?" crowd. I wonder if it's common across all disability subs?...

I think it's a matter of surroundings. I know about rich people, but they're somewhere else and don't bother me. On the other hand my friends' discussing their relationship or asking me why don't I fi...

Anything that distracts your mind from fear or takes your mind off the anticipation of stuttering will usually give you temporary relief. This is the main reason why stutterers are sometimes misled b...

I try to learn languages. French is my mortal enemy. Something about that language makes me stutter way more than in any other language. Still stutter ruined a lot of things for me and caused me so...
