i find this so interesting and I feel pws (people who stutter) needs to be a bigger conversation in media. i see this comment all the time on specifically tiktok. people sometimes respond “you sh...

In all seriousness this phrase, as it relates to the majority of the fluent population, makes sense. You say that it is used in a way that implies disfluency = unintelligent, but I think it has more ...

Just because you haven't seen the phrase used in its intended use or that it doesn't bother you, doesn't mean it doesn't happen to others or doesn't bother anyone else. Even if it's not massively so, ...

Amen! Especially because on another note, stuttering doesn’t even make somebody less audible. If anything it increases the ease of understanding in the listener because the word is slowed down....

I've never seen anyone use "did I stutter" to mean "what I just said was good", to the point where I believe you've just misunderstood what was ultimately meant by the phrase. Although I agree it's u...

This phrase makes my blood boil. But then I try to calm myself and realize it’s further proof that there are different types of stutter, and that most people are completely uninformed about what a “...

It's so casually used that I don't think people are seeing how it normalises judgement against people with disfluency. People with fluency can say anything yet they choose to say this phrase 🙄...

Then just say "did you not understand me". For me it's that the phrase isn't used in that sense, it's used when a statement is made and "did they stutter?" is used to emphasise that what was said wa...

"Did I stutter" is meant to mean "did you not understand me". I don't find it necessarily offensive, as I know that people often do simply not understand what I said as a result of the heavy stutter...

can't ask a "controversial question" for poll answers if the unequivocal, objective answer is ✨no✨ it's not a "habit" to be broken by sheer force of will. do not repost this....

I don't stutter, but I have cluttering, which can sound like stuttering to those who don't know much about speech. I interviewed a guy who stutters and who is a speech language pathologist, Evan Sher...

You’ve made similar comments before and each time, I try to understand it. Can you share where you came up with this idea and how effective, in the longterm, it’s been for you and others? You say t...

And an illness is also a part of who you are. The thing is that if you can do anything to prevent someone to have or develop an undesirable condition, you must do it. If after all effort you can't cur...

I respect you actually trying to get feedback from people who have a stutter. I think it’s good, nothing inherently wrong. There are multiple types of stutters and I recommend reading on it more. Good...

> Encourage a love of words. > >Just for the love of god don’t tell her to “slow down” if she’s excited and stuttering. I agree completely. Research (that I've linked in this thread) al...

Boys outgrow stuttering less often than girls, one interpretation could be that boys are biologically competitive in nature. Boys could then build a competetive attitude in order to speak more fluentl...

Girls outgrow stuttering more often than boys. My interpretation of this is, that boys usually get the message to try to force out a word in order to control it (over automatic natural speech). This c...

A very familiar story. I was also pretty outgoing. Stutter never stopped me from talking too much and annoying my teachers haha Sometimes I wish I had smooth speech. Most times I think stuttering, and...

Most scientists who study stuttering have maintained that stuttering is a neurodevelopmental disorder, meaning that it is caused by misfiring or reduced activity in certain areas of the brain. It's fr...

Repetition of words or phrases is an autistic trait, which has a lot of comorbidity with stuttering...
