The Construction of the Disabled Speaker: Locating Stuttering in Disability Studies

 St. Pierre, Joshua. 2012. “The Construction of the Disabled Speaker: Locating Stuttering in Disability Studies”. Canadian Journal of Disability Studies 1 (3):1-21. https://doi.org/10.15353/cjds.v1i3.54.

....“broken speech” is constructed by both a speaker and a hearer. (3)

Stuttering is accepted as a problem within the medical model, identified both clinically and medically as something to be managed and fixed. (4)

Technologically, altered auditory feedback devices (AAF) are becoming increasingly popular; the SpeechEasy, which is worn in the ear and echoes the speaker’s words at a slight delay and altered pitch, is advertised as a “discreet anti-stuttering device.”6 Though SpeechEasy has so far resulted in mixed success, technological augmentations can only be expected to increase in usage. (5)

The quantification of disability, commonplace in the medical model, helps shape stuttering “into a concrete individual issue, abstracted from interpersonal interaction and interpretation,” 7 (5)

The process of becoming arduously aware of every deviant syllable as something misspoken and out of place requires and reinforces a paradigm of objectification. (6)

Paralleling the way in which speech has no meaning outside of an interpretive context involving a hearer, so stuttering cannot be understood apart from expectations of “normal” hearing. (6)

Rosemarie Garland-Thomson who locates stuttering amongst a range of disabilities that disrupt the normal expectations of human communication: The uncontrolled body does not perform typically the quotidian functions required by the elaborate structured codes of acceptable social behavior. Blindness, deafness, or stuttering, for instance, disturb the complex web of subtle interchanges upon which communication rituals depend.10 (7)

In one sense then, stuttering makes the transmission of information more difficult than “normal” speech. An unaccustomed hearer often works harder to analyze non-verbal cues, to understand the meaning of words which are twisted and stretched beyond their defining phonetic structure, and to decipher syntax from sentences that are halted mid-way only to be backed up to get a running start. This interpretive process is made even more difficult by the frequent discomfort of watching / listening to a stutterer form a sentence with difficulty. However, regardless of the severity of the rupture, the responsibility for this disruption of communicative rituals does not fall singularly upon the stutterer as she deviates from “normal” speech, but also upon the hearer whose ability to pick up upon the “web of subtle interchanges” is heavily conditioned by “normal” hearing. (7)

A homogenous audience does not think to question that a heavy accent presents a communicative difficulty (or is even an accent at all!) because they cannot adequately hear, since, as stated by Iris Young, “the dominant groups need not notice their own group being at all; they occupy an unmarked, neutral, apparently universal position.”12 When hearing does require extra effort, the dominant group is veiled behind its universal and unmarked position. Therefore, not only are communicative norms constructed by speakers and hearers, but deviation in this communicative relation is shouldered disproportionally by the minority group. (8-9)

Since “abled” hearers hold the dominant position within our societynumerically and influentially—they are unmarked and consequently it is taken for granted that to hear normally is to understand clearly recognizable and defined speech patterns. Behind a veil of universality, these expectations solidify into communicative “rules” that stutterers seem to violate. Insofar as dominant “abled” groups hide their constructed normalcy, speech becomes “broken” and the speaker alone is constructed as unnatural, abnormal and therefore disabled. (9)

From this perspective, it is easy to understand why stuttering is seen as an individual problem of a speaker, for a hearer occupies the position of an objective receptacle, whose passivity (which frees her from interpretation) reliably mirrors the objective nature of the “broken” speech. (9)

Bodies not capable of meeting expectations of pace and productivity are therefore disqualified from full participation not only in the economic sector but also in social situations. (13)

...that to participate fully in the capitalist world, people must be normalized and thereby reinforce the identity of the American Ideal: successful, productive and mastered. (16)
