Welcome to the club 🙃 a lot of people who stutter have tons of unresolved answers because researchers are not interested enough in us, since we barely represent 1% of the population and therefore it ...

Blaming stuttering as a whole on being a behavioral issue in this context is not only rude and dismissive, it's factually incorrect. There are many cases in which stuttering is genetic and many cases ...

Do you agree with the stereotype that men are more competitive than women. This could lead to viewing that fluency is never enough adding control (like stutter predictions & tensing speech muscles...

I’m criticizing your third source. I agree with the statistics of stuttering in males vs females. I disagree with the gender stereotypes assigned to men and women....

Okay. I’m a nurse. Lifelong female stutterer. Neurodivergent. My stuttering starts at the base of head at like my hairline - back of my neck. Start there?...

My opinion is irrelevant but I sense you are someone who has *some* type of respect for the DSM and the APA. separating out primary and secondary bxs of dysfluency is not seen as a useful current pra...

Yes, because stuttering is something that we don't have control of. It's literally our brains and bodies doing this against our will. Disability isn't a bad word, if anything, associating stuttering ...

This is an interesting question. I do not, personally, see my stutter as a disability. That being said, I certainly would have answered differently when I was younger. OP, are you familiar with the m...

We as a community need to accept our speech more. It's so hard when we're constantly surrounded by people who speak differently than us. We fall into our anxieties which could hinder our professional ...

Well welcome to the club. Imagine if you were a short man, a minority, a woman, disabled, or any other perceived disadvantaged class. You described some of the things that others experience too except...

I think it’s the irony of language disorders. People with lisps struggle to say lisp, people with rhotacism can’t produce r sounds… it’s a big joke that I can’t quite see yet haha...

I disagree. Stuttering is a disability, yes, but also a verb. People stutter sometimes, just not at the same level as us. "Did I stutter" doesn't mock the stutterer's intelligence, it just means "wa...
