She does look pretty darn grim in that photo. I think it's cute <3

Yeah, good point. Hope so! I actually sent an inquiring email to KC myself, and I just now got a response... it was the exact same form letter that wetdlmark posted. It does seem plausible that they haven't updated their form letter yet.

Fingers crossed. I really want to see Tinkerbell L/XLs!

Hmm, looks kinda like they're adding printed tapes to regular adult diapers. (They certainly won't have gotten the copyright holders' permission.) Not too terrible graphic choices, at least. (My Little Pony! Squeeeee!) My "instinct" says to be on the lookout for scams. But they might be legit. Legit aside from the copyright violation I mean.

Quite welcome. A little more info I found, it looks like they're put out by SCA/Tena, and they're a lot like a smaller, baby-ish version of one of the Tena Slips. I'm sorry, I was sure I'd found more than one, but it doesn't look like I saved links to more than one if I did... maybe I'm wrong. Anyway, there's this (which may be the one you found): http://www.saveexpress.de/save/index.php?lang=ENG&search=libero I've never ordered anything from them, I don't know how reputable they are. I guess there's also amazon.co.uk, like I said earlier in the post: http://www.amazon.co.uk/Libero-XLarge-comfort-fit-Nappies/dp/B0089LU9US/ref=sr_1_7?ie=UTF8&qid=1340818437&sr=8-7 but I don't actually know whether they'll ship Liberos to the U.S. Apparently SCA/Tena has forbidden selling Liberos in the U.S. to its distributors or something.

Huh, do diapers show up at thrift stores very often? (And, uh, are they usually still-sealed packages?)

Doesn't look like a film's set, lighting, or camera quality - though is difficult to tell from a tiny photo, and I'm definitely not an expert on the subject. I think sitcom or reality TV is a better guess.

Liberos are children's diapers, the XL size 7 of which is supposedly larger than the Pampers Cruisers size 7. Here's a link. They're sold in Europe only, I think? Maybe only in the U.K., even, but I think I've seen them on a German site. There are a few sites you can order them from that ship to America, but I assume the cost is higher. (Amazon.co.uk offers them, and I think they ship to the U.S.)

Ooh, this is extremely kind of you! Can I get the "Hug me" Valentine's Day one?

That IS a cute design! I'm planning to get some of those eventually, when I can afford it / have room for them.

You're very welcome, Lilbabygirl! :3

Goodnites.

That's really sad, I really want some princess pullups.

Hi! I haven't really looked at this, but here's a link I came across a little while ago that might help: How to Create Makeshift Adult Diapers Your mom sounds like a pretty... difficult... person. I'm sorry you have to deal with her. As for whether there's something wrong with you..... well, i was just saying this on another forum, but it's really hard to just "get rid of" interests like this, and in this case it's such a harmless one that I don't think it's worth worrying about. Wait a few more years until you move out and then you can buy all the diapers you want. ^.^

I think it's really awesome that you're so open-minded and okay with this. It sounds like it may take a little while for your boyfriend to relax and be comfortable wearing and talking about diapers with you. Diaper fetishism is indeed harmless, but some people do think it's sick, maybe because they wrongly think it's related to pedophilia, or maybe because it can be connected to peeing and pooping, or maybe because it's just so unusual for grown adults to want to do something that's childish/babyish. He's probably been hiding this and feeling like he's a freak for a very long time; I think it's a good idea not to push him too fast or anything. It sounds like he's really lucky to have someone as sweet and willing to understand as you, however.

Can you give me a source regarding trademarking product cuts? As for colors, my understanding is that you can only trademark colors when that color serves to identify a specific brand, and when that color is unrelated to the "functionality" of an item. Take this case, for example, where Louboutin attempted to sue another shoe manufacturer that used a distinctive sole color in the same way as his widely recognized shoes. Here's what the article says about it:

Hold up a second here people. Exact replicas would be a problem because of two things: first, the Pampers, Huggies, etc. brand names are all trademarked, and you're not allowed to use them without permission. Second, the cartoon characters and graphics featured on such items are trademarked and copyrighted. So here's what you could do. Make exact replicas of the "structural" designs for such diapers, but release them under a different brand name, and use different graphics. Maybe that's not what the OP has in mind, but you could still copy them very faithfully otherwise - like you could use the same colors in the same places, the same materials, and same cut, you could put little graphics and characters in the same places as the originals (as long as what you're putting there is legally distinguishable from the original graphics), etc. See, the thing is that clothing designs are not protected by copyright law. This page provides some more info - it does talk about proposed legislation to copyright fashion designs, but that doesn't currently exist, and anyway the term for that would only be three years (unlike the utterly absurd 70-whatever years after the death of the author term we get with normal copyrighted items). The reason counterfeit Gucci crap is illegal is because it's trying to pass itself off as Gucci, i.e. violating trademark, not because it's copying their designs. You can recreate Gucci products to 100% accuracy as long as you don't CALL them Gucci products, and as long as you don't put the words "Gucci" or any trademarked logo on the knockoff product itself. Of course, I am not a lawyer either.

Christine, I can't seem to find the post you're talking about, could you link it to me more directly? I'd be interested in reading it.

I'm relatively inexperienced with the ABDL community, but one thing I've noticed is that it seems a lot of ABDL men who do not identify as transgender/transsexual, crossdressers, or sissies are nonetheless just fine with using some "girly" items. The first example that comes to mind is using maxi pads either as stuffers or just on their own; another is the wearing of made-for-girls diapers, stylistically feminine diapers, and/or stylistically feminine plastic pants; another is wearing nylons/tights. So, was just wondering if anyone has any armchair speculation about why that is, since, stereotypically, most heterosexual cis-gendered men would be pretty put off by that kind of thing. Is it something like, being AB already transgresses far enough away from standard masculine expectations that it's not much of a leap from there to using feminine items? Or is it that coming to terms with one's own unusual (in society's eyes) desires for babyish apparel also makes one more open-minded about trying other things? A conceptual link between femininity and children/youth? Or maybe I've been assuming that the people who've made those kinds of comments don't consider themselves transgendered/crossdressers when they actually do. Here's a question for ABDL men who are not "out and proud" about being ABDL (or about being sissies or LG, if they are that too)--do you think it'd be more embarrassing to be caught wearing diapers or caught dressed up as a woman? (Or wearing women's lingerie, perhaps.)

Hah, well, you know, the other day I found some thong-style plastic pants... http://www.aliexpress.com/fm-store/907038/211049023-567617650/FREE-SHIPPING--5-pcs-of-Adult-Baby-Sissy-PVC-G-STRING-UNDERWEAR-T-01.html (It says "G string" but it's actually more like a normal thong, go figure.)

Sexual but also somewhat sensual (I mean I feel a non-sexual pleasure from the touch and experience), also a bit "for fun", but I guess I'd mostly have to say sexual.

Thanks for the help! You mean the Huggies kind right? That print seems a little different than the ones I find when looking up pics of those, but close enough I guess. ;P

Thanks! See you around. ^.^

Hey, so I saw this short clip here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=flIrWxCgYDA And I kinda really love how they look. Obviously this took some modification, I'd love to be able to make something similar. Does anyone recognize the kind of pull ups s/he used as as base, and if they're still for sale anywhere? Any ideas about where to get those kind of lacy frills? And it's hard to say from the vdieo, but it looks like it has a proper clip on the front, it's not just like held in place with safety pins. I think? Any ideas on doing that kind of thing? Appreciate the help! <3

Thanks much Betty! <3 I appreciate it a lot. I do like the Cushies, they're definitely some of the cutest adult sized I've seen. I plan to get some of those when I can. I may need to look into a PO box or something though. Thanks for suggesting the prints to me; that sounds like a great idea. I feel like the cut/style of the diapers themselves is a big part of it for me too - like having single tape attachments on the side, which is something that's great about Cushies and the Super Dry Kids, but might be harder to find on other already blank diapers?
