In high school everybody with a lisp was presumed gay. Everybody with a stutter, well it was noted as a stutter and they were perceived as being less functional than their well spoken peers, perhaps on the tad side of retarded and slightly less confident in themselves because of what they lacked in vocal delivery. I'm not saying it was right that they were thought of in that way but I must say that's how they were perceived.
Is it normal people don't get made fun of for speech issues?
