After getting home and diapering myself up for the night, I decided to check out the site this evening. It’s been a while since I’ve been here. Twenty four posts since my story. Some looked good, some okay, and no bad ones since my last vist. I left my story because I liked the look of this sight, and it was a chance to say something.
Today I”m not sure what to say. I see a few posts saying how crazy some of us are for wanting to wear diapers. I must be crazy then. I hang cloth diapers and plastic pants on the clothes line in the back yard, and 40 trains a day go by seeing them flap in the breeze. If I only hang them in the back yard, am I only 50% crazy, or am I still 100% crazy? Do I get pro-rated depending on when I went to adult diapers at a certain age? You never know, I might only be half crazy.
So far I have typed fifty lines, taken twenty minutes to do it, and deleted them all. Three times. It’s not just a matter of what to say, but to say it right.
I guess I just can’t find the words to say that I’m an adult diaper lover and an adult baby. I think the baby bed with rails, baby bottles for bedtime, occassional baby music, onsies, footed sleepers, a rainbow color of plastic pants, and a license plate that reads: 1 AB DL might be a dead giveaway. Course, I’ve been wrong before.
So, when I got to bed tonight, I’ll go to bed with a triple layer disposable diaper on, plastic pants (hmmmm, which color tonight?), and one of the ten pre-filled baby botlles from the fridge, and I’ll snuggle up in my covers with the fan blowing on me. Tomorow I’ll wake up. Hopefully. Woudn’t want to wake up dead, now would I? I’ll stay in a diaper until it’s time to go to work, then take it off to join the group of people that don’t wear diapers. What would it be like if the tables were turned, and the whole world wore diapers? We’d probably poke fun at all the people that didn’t wear a diaper, wouldn’t we?
It’s just a matter of etiquette. Etiquette is defined as The practices and forms prescribed by social convention (that’s you and me) or by authority. That means that if I can get lets say, 50,000 more people to wear a diaper during my lifetime, then it’s more socially acceptable, isn’t it? It sure is, because society says it is.

Time for beddy bye. See you all again soon.

This is such an odd post.
Although I am not making fun of all of the people who decide to abide by this lifestyle, I think its so weird. Its not that society tells us it is wrong to wear diapers as adults, but dont you think it is a bit unsanitary to be walking around with your poop rubbed all over your butt all day?

And to those who say it is unsafe to hold it in, why do you think there are so many bathrooms around us? Babies use diapers because they are little newborn beings who over time learn how to take care of themselves, and of course at that age they do not have control over their body’s functions. I have never even considered using diapers, and do not understand the fetish that comes along with it. I do understand, however, if seniors or people with disabilities need to wear them, like my grandpa (reason I came upon this page), but come on, many of you would agree that being an adult and having control over OTHER aspects in life, such as a job, being a parent and having other responsibilities, is very important, so why not be an adult about this issue and have control over your body’s needs?

p.s. I’m an 18 year old girl, and I would think someone my age wearing them would be absolutely ridiculous!

and at this moment I have to pee, so I gotta go =]

If only life was that simple! I agree entirely, nappies are just another form of underwear. I wear them for convenience: to get a good night’s sleep, to be comfortable during the day instead of having to rush to the toilet, to endure UK’s horrendous traffic jams without that ache of needing a wee. So what? I’m not forcing them on others, I’m not exposing my nappies for all to see, I’m not dirty (I don’t do that) so no smells… I use terry nappies and plastic pants most of the time, so no environmental landfill problems either.

The poster and others who see fit to poke FUN at us have much to learn and frankly aren’t worth any time or consideration. If they took time to get to know those who do wear nappies they would find understanding, kind, thoughtful and caring people – some of the best friends they could wish for. Live and let live.

By the way I’m 57 and have worn nappies voluntarily for most of my life – and I don’t care what others think!

I completely agree with you on this. I don’t have any medical problems or anything but I usually find I have to pee a lot during the day since I drink a lot of water (dry in the office) and I also need to poop after eating lunch… using a diaper is actually more comfortable to me than having to use the nasty shared bathroom in the office. I hate that.. yeah, dirty diapers can smell sometimes depending on my diet but it’s not that bad when it is and it really is comfortable even though I wear a soiled diaper for a few hours.

Greetings!
I to am a ‘D/L’ or diaper lover and been this way for the last 40 years. I’m 47 and wear for comfort and convenience. Saying that, one thing i have seen and wish would change is the social attitude and stigma towards the infirm and incontinent. A diaper is just a form of underwear, and most of us who wear do so for a reason. Incontinent people cant help it, its they way they are built. I wear due to my mental ‘programming’. being a D/L chose me I didn’t choose it.
I read sad stories on message boards about people who are rejected from relationships simply because they are incontinent, and have to use some form of ‘protection’.
I find that people who wear diapers are more open minded and ‘mature’ than most of society!!!
So to those who look down on others simply because they wear different underwear, slap on a diaper and grow up.
You can never know what its like until you try it.
I am forever a fan of cloth prefolds and plastic pants.
Underwear sucks!
LOL

Hey Now Fellow Diaper Setters !

I happen to be a healthy, single and looking, and fit “youngster” of 55 who has been in diapers all my life for my frequent accidents. Believe me that there are multitudes of older kids and adults in them either at night, part time, or full time. Diapers are great to wear, but the main problem I find is that with all the many brands of youth and adult disposable “briefs” none of them are as efficient or nice as Pampers or Huggies toddler diapers are.

I hear that Pampers and Luvs are coming out with a Size 7 diaper …. and they should probably fit up to a 30 inch waist. This is a step in the right direction, but we accident prone adults really should have baby style diapers in sizes for us too …. not ill-fitting and poor-performing “incontinent briefs”.

In the meanwhile, I’ll stick with my trusty ol’ cloth diapers and big baby plastic pants for running around in whenever practical.
Diapers are cool and practical for any age…

Paul,
Short comment, just my perspective.

I have family and friends that find it helpful or necessary to wear either minor or major urinary protection.

I also have family and friends with no choice, as illness or old age makes adult diapers a necessity.

I would never waste my time or efforts wondering if someone was wearing any form of diaper. Not my business. Who cares?

Regardless of age, I NEVER want to smell someone’s poopy diaper. Don’t like it if a nearby infant stinks. It will never be more acceptable with a dirty adult diaper.

Identify the purpose to be served.

If diaper is being worn for convenience, or to protect against unexpected and urgent go accidents and public humiliation, then the person has achieved additional time and privacy, so go clean up afterward. Appreciate the fewer interruptions, but don’t consider that diaper as bottomless pit, or substitute for clean and dry bottom.

If the person really just likes to wear soggy diapers, then admit that to yourself, and go ahead and wear them – in the privacy of your home. I don’t want you next to me in the workplace, or store, or restaurant, or anywhere. Stay home.

And if your diap is dirty, just go change it. Not a topic for discussion, or debate, or circumstance variance. Change it.
Then wash your hands… Soap and water. Plus a little pleasant hand lotion.

JoAnne,

The best suggestion for your friend is cloth diapers and plastic pants. Cloth is far more absorbent than disposables and they have much greater wicking ability, which means that moisture will be distributed throughout the diaper and not just concentrated in one spot. Most disposables have little or no wicking ability and they often leak when most of the diaper is still dry.

Cloth diapers can be layered, she can wear two or three or use inserts to achieve whatever level of absorbency is necessary. Since she is most likely using a wheelchair, the bulk of the diaper showing should not be an issue; but if anyone could tell that she was diapered, they would certainly understand that it was necessary due to her medical conditions and not think anything of it.

JoAnne R.

I frequently use a razor blade to cut slits into my disposable diapers. I can then add as many diapers as I like to give me many hours without a diaper change. A three layer disposable will give me 4-6 hours of protection with a superior diaper like Abri Form, with a 6 pack of beer. Don’t cut slits into the “outside” diaper! Two Abri Forms with an outside generic diaper will not be too noticeable. A bit puffy, but nothing that the average person would think anything about. Don’t forget diapers for the stay and the return trip also. Hope this helps you.
