I’m on team disclose your stutter. Aside from all the obvious benefits of it, putting it in the open like that flips the power dynamic. Instead of your interviewer trying to figure out “why he talks like that” he’s focused on having appropriate reactions to a person who stutters proudly. Think about the balding man who does everything he can to hide his bald spots. Just draws more attention to it. But a man who owns his bald spots can walk through unnoticed
