No, I would not accept a cure. I wouldn’t be me without my stutter, and I don’t believe not having it would make my life “substantially easier.” I just wouldn’t really feel like me anymore. And, as far as I’m concerned, I’m not disabled by my speech, but rather by a society that expects perfect fluency. Since there *is* no cure, it’s up to us to challenge and resist that.
