In your article you discuss ways in which PWS can be seen as oppressed. However, a covert stutterer is a person who uses synonyms and other "tricks" to pass as being fluent. So would a covert stutterer really be seen as part of the oppressed group if no one knows that they really stutter? Who are they oppressed by?
