So does the man in the video have a stutter? It sounds like he's using a speech jammer and then getting temporary relief with out. The best programs in America don't see stuttering as a problem to be ...

I mean, I get that it's supposed to be poetic, but I personally don't really agree with this line of redefinition. Stutter might indeed be neurologic, and it might be quite alright to deem it abnormal...

What is the best neuroscience research on stuttering?

What is the best neuroscience research on stuttering? To me the worst part of stuttering is the lack of understanding as to what it is. The inconsistency. How sometimes we are near fluent, and other t...

>For the most part one is born Male, Female. Gender is a different story, something you develop and identify with as you grow as a person. Based on this comment, it doesn't even seem like we even...

Yeah, it's not for research study, just an attempt to get a better idea of our community. I put 'Assigned sex at birth', because I didn't want the gender people identify as to play a part, since like ...

No one denies the 2 sexes. Gender is the issue. Most people conflate the two, I'm not saying you are. Even the people advocating for change conflate them because society for so long equated the two. S...

That's exactly my point. Genetics. You are either born male or female, in all but rare cases of intersex people. It's about the chromosomes; XY = Male, XX = Female. No one, other than perhaps god i...

I don't see anything wrong with the phrasing. It acknowledges that society places us into culturally defined sex categories. It would be better if it asked for gender too. There is a much higher preva...

Assigned sex at birth?! Really? I'm not taking a step, not matter how small it might be, towards normalizing that bullshit by taking your survey. ...

Couple of issues with your comment: First, age has nothing to do with it really. It's about the willingness, and availability to access health services. Someone could tackle this at ten years old or f...

Sidebar has a different take on it. ;) Of course, neither of them are completely correct. They're just reactions (understandable ones). We are stutterers, whether we talk or not. Our challenge is to...

I am not autistic. Autism has nothing to do with stuttering. I was referring to involuntary sounds like snorting or other vocal ones. No need to be insulting here....

Point of note: [Stammer is synonymous with stutter](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stuttering). But you are correct that there are different characteristics of stuttering. If you think you've got PTSD...

She definitely doesn't understand and what you said is pretty much spot on. She's a very very stubborn woman, resulting in me being quite stubborn too. From a young age she's just thrown me into wha...

There's a difference between an action being performed abnormally, and then the reactions to said action. The text seems to be conflating the two - the latter can indeed be met with ableism, but that ...

Do I Stutter? Blog http://www.didistutter.org/blog "...Of course the vast majority of us who have been to speech therapy have experience this outright—the assumption that it is my speech (not the bia...

Oh, no, I'm not being contrarian, don't worry. I just sometimes get stuck on the terminological/conceptual aspects when people describe these things, I guess....

Stutterers differ on when they're fluent (or nonfluent). But there's certainly variation possible, yes. I don't think we should call it "100 percent mental", since it might sound like it's something w...

That you can only become famous when you stop stuttering, thus stuttering is a bad things. (I don't agree with this however)....

I've had a very large number of people say that stuttering isn't a disability. I believe that he's been told that....
