Are lisps unattractive? Annoying? Cute?

[Anonymous]

Ok so, I have a lisp... I'm starting to get insecure about it, the only thing that makes up for it is my attractiveness. I get complicated on my looks all the time I consider myself pretty with a nice petite body, and amazing eyes lol. I remember going to speech therapy when I was in elementary but I stopped going for some reason I don't remember.

Then middle school came someone asked me "Do you normally talk like that?" I was so clueless I was like "ummm, yea?" lmao. I had braces in high school and most people were like "I can't wait till you get your braces off" and I'm just realizing that it's because so I can talk more clearly :(

Im out of high school and I currently have social anxiety and becoming extra shy about the way I talk so I rarely go out anymore. I'm trying to go to speech therapy but my parents are saying that I speak just fine but they are just used to it. I feel like speech therapy would help me in the future and I would become more successful in life if I get it fixed.

So my question is, What do you think about lisps? Are you currently dating someone with a lisp?

Cute

Annoying

I don't really care

I think that lisps can be ugly/attractive depending on the severity - a slight lisp is cute but a heavy one is not as much. But, it also depends on the person. If someone I am attracted to (speaking from experience here) has a lisp, I find it absolutely adorable. I can't explain perfectly as to why it sounds so cute to me, but I think it adds an element of childlikeness to them which is very cute.

I don't mind people lisping. It's not their fault. But I'm sure that they find it annoying.

Lisps are adorable
And please dont be insecure about it.

There will be people who would try to make you feel bad about it, but dont pay attention because that are just bad people.

The best thing to learn is to be able to laugh at your own imperfections, that takes away the power people have over you

Speech impediments can hardly be considered as attractive, but you don't have to worry about that too much. If it really bothers you like you say, you should start a speech therapy again.

I mean, if you don't like something and it's within your abilities to change it, then do change it, there's no point in putting up with that. I have a slight lisp and I hate it, I'm okay with it only because I know it's temporary and I'll be able to speak clearly after I get my braces off.

It is not your fault, so no its not unattractive. For me its no deal breaker 😊.

I know when you have one you can’t help it and I’m sorry if I offend but it’s annoying to me
