I think some people here are being way to, I don't know, optimistic? 5% of the total population into AB/DL? I find that very hard to believe. When you say 'adult baby clothes' ... Most people will respond with 'you mean clothes for babies that are adult styles?' ... Or 'adult baby sitter' ... Usually the typical response is 'an adult who can babysit your kids? Sure I'd be glad to.' ... And the classic 'adult baby' ... Usually gets a whole hardy WTF??? ... I might believe that 5% of the total population knows what being an AB/DL or infantilism is. But trust me, less than 1% practices AB/DL type of stuff. I'm also inclined to believe most people who first hear about adult babies thinks it is quite disgusting and should seek help. Atleast that's what I get from the large majority of responses on yahoo answers..........Now obviously all of this is just my opinion but I think it's a good one.

That was just great...I'm looking for a mommy right now but I sorta wish you were my daddy too.

Unfortunately Seppuku is absolutely right. It's funny how all the people who had good experiences say things like "dont be so negative" and all those with bad experiences say "don't tell them". I had an OK experience and still say this is on a need-to-know basis type thing. No matter how much you trust your friends, being an adult baby basically has nothing to do with it. This is completely different. Just look at the yahoo question/answer part of the website. Most of the adult baby related questions, 99% of the answers are people who just laugh at them and tell them to seek profesional help. Or the astronaut wife who drove 900 miles in a diaper, when I heard my family or friends talk about it, they didn't just laugh, they were weirded out. And she only used the diaper for a road trip not dressing up as a baby and sleeping in a crib. On the late night shows, the set-up to the joke was all that was needed to get a laugh. When Jay or Conan would get to the word diaper, the audience would let out this chuckle and laugh. It sort of seemed like they couldn't hold it in. People genuinely get freaked out about adults who want to wear diapers, assuming they've even heard of the practice. Trust me, your average joe just cannot comprehend why you would want to wear diapers. My mom found out one day and was OK with it to a point. Now everytime it's brought up she says don't waste your money on those things, or why do you want to do that? Even when I tell her it's my way of relieving stress she just downright doesn't understand. Your absolutely right in saying most people would rather anything else happen to them then to have to wear and use a diaper. I know it can be hard for AB's to understand why average people don't understand but trust me, they don't. I didn't know either but eventually I came to realize this is something that needs to be kept private. Not because I'm embarassed, but because other people would freak out at the sight of me.

It's probably correct in that AB/DL is one of the lowest. An INCREDIBLY large amount of people really have absolutely no idea what this is and usually just laugh when they find out...
