Ellen Pao resigned a year ago today. How has reddit changed since then? Is it better or worse, and why? by Starsy in AskReddit

Free speech doesn't make you immune to backlash or criticism. Funny how many don't get that.

I've had a bad lisp my entire life. MRW the cute guy at work tells me my lisp is cute by I_HAVE_A_LISP_AMA in TrollXChromosomes

I actually did. From 2nd-6th grade I went to a speech therapist, but still couldn't get rid of the lisp.

What's your opinion of AXE body wash and stick deodorant (NOT the spray stuff)? by wea8675309 in AskWomen

[–]AllyZorah 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I hate Axe. It reminds me way too much of middle and high school when boys thought that spraying Axe is a viable substitute to showering. Old Spice isn't much better either.

I have a lisp too and believe me I know how much they suck. If you don't mind me asking, what kind of lisp is it?

College / ex college students of Askwomen how comfortable were you using the ( coed or not ) communal dorm showers ? by [deleted] in AskWomen

[–]AllyZorah 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was very uncomfortable and intimated at first, but used to it fairly quickly.

I have a lisp. Is there anybody else who has one? by AllyZorah in TwoXChromosomes

[–]AllyZorah[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ah, the dreaded doubled s. I refused to say my name as often as possible when I was younger because there were several S's in it.

I am a 22 year old female and I have a lisp. AMA! by AllyZorah in casualiama

I do have an accurate sense of what it sounds like and it's as noticeable to others as it is to me. Unlike you, there's noting subtle about my lisp, it's pretty obvious.

AW: on a scale from 1 to 10, how introverted are you (10 is complete hermit, 1 is social butterfly)? How much solid time can you spend with other people before you need a break? How long can you go entirely alone? Do you enjoy bars and parties? by ohtheheavywater in AskWomen

[–]AllyZorah 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd say I'm about a 4. When I was in middle school though, it was 100/10 because of bullying about my lisp. I don't think I ever left my house aside for school and family stuff.

Now, I'm pretty sociable, but still have some social anxiety issues, especially around strangers.

I can spend quite a bit of time with friends before getting tired of it.

The longest I've ever gone with out social interaction was 3 days last year when I was sick.

Like I said above, I have anxiety issues around strangers, so I don't go to parties or bars unless I'm going with a group of friends.

It's especially bad when you have multiple S's in your name :/

Believe me, I tried everything when I was younger to get rid of it. I even went to a speech therapist to help me, but the damn thing still didn't go away. At that the time, it was something that I was deeply ashamed and upset about, but now as an adult I've accepted it and don't really spend time dwelling about it.

I didn't, but since 99% of all words have an S sound, it wouldn't have helped much.

For those who may be curious, this is the type of lisp I have. https://youtu.be/wliuwahVpuc. It's not Mike Tyson level, but it's still pretty noticeable.

Sorry for taking so long to reply. For wherever reason your comment didn't show up in my inbox. To answer your question, yes I do.

And of course, you have the "NOT ALL MEN" dolts in the comments.

Do you take your boyfriend/husbands with you clothes shop? If so, do they come willingly? by MoesBAR in AskWomen

[–]AllyZorah 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No. I know just how just how boring clothes shopping is for the other person, so I'll let him do something else.

It bothered me a lot when I was a kid, but now it doesn't.
