I'd try to speak to that fucker, explain him that what he does is just wrong. Or talk to the hr, whatever superiors you have and tell them about it. Use some serious language like "using your disabi...

No, it's not normal. Well, in these people's moral compass it's normal, but in general it's not. I don't know how to handle this right. Usually I just do the same towards them ha-ha or ignore them, bu...

I’m 35, and I’ve met one peer who stuttered in the wild, and through that SLP, I met some others that were older than me at the time. They had full fledged careers and it was good to have that support...

I'm a woman who stutters. Ironically enough, I get more or less the same vibes you seem to from men. As in, they'll approach me, making it clear they find me attractive or interesting or whatever, but...
