I'm 100% plastic pants! I do wear something under them when it's warm because they do get clingy with sweat. It isn't neccessarily a cloth diaper though. I wear my regular underwear or panties as well. Cloth and plastic pants seems to be the favorite of us older people. At the time I was in them, disposable diapers were just coming into the market place and were not cheap. There were diaper services that picked up and laundered used diapers. they are all but gone these days.
