^ hell, that's the only way I'd ever go camping! I don't like to camp, so... v have you ever won more than $500 in a lottery?

Wow...3 or 4 ice cubes! Isn't that painfully cold? And it's enough to give you a good movement? Tell us more!

Oh, please don't feel sad for me...I don't. To feel sad for me would be judgmental, I think. Are you happy where you are? To that extent I can be happy for you. I won't bother being sad for you that you've lost relationships for whatever reasons, because you don't seem to be sad about that. I'm happy where I am - we all live in some sort of life - very few are ideal. I'm not sad about it and I wouldn't want you to be sad either. Unfortunately, throughout your posts, I sense a lot of judgment. Maybe I'm wrong and if I am, I do apologize. You really sound like you have everyone else figured out for what they are or aren't and have judged them accordingly - poor me, the scared sheep! Please don't judge me - and don't feel sad about something in my life for which I am accepting - I will try to do the same with regard to you and others.

Wow...I'd read the post from Eric D and was prepared to see flames...I sort of agree personally on the baby talk routine out of the proper forum, but I just skip past those. Instead, what I read was an incredibly reasoned response on Knuxie's part! Good restraint and excellent understanding of others! If no one else does, I want to commend you on extreme reasonability!! I look forward to seeing your posts now!

I think Aleia was expressing a point of view without slamming anyone else. At the same time, I think Aleia is talking about something from a slightly different point of view as Diapered_Witch. I don't think the point is whether you flaunt your diapers or not. It doesn't sound like Diapered_Witch flaunts anything - just isn't concerned whether or not people notice. Many people can and do get along well with that philosophy - I'm not criticizing that nor does it sound like Aleia is real hot on that either, but I shouldn't speak for anyone else. My point is simply that I don't want to condemn or criticize you for your comfort in letting people know about your diapers - but neither do I want to be criticized for my own reality - which is, I have too much to lose to take on your attitude, not because I'm better or worse than you, but because my situation is different. I do agree with you that most people don't know what underwear you're wearing and don't care. That's fine. My concern is that IF anyone did notice, I could lose my wife, my family, my friends and my job. If you can't understand that, I guess I forgive you. I'm a little less forgiving if you want to continue to label and criticize those of us who are in such positions.

Well, I guess I'm just a 'scared sheep' but now that the dialogue has calmed a little, I'll brave speaking up. I have two points to mention. First of all, I was petrified to wear in public AT ALL for a long time. Finally I broke down and tried it. Yes, I think you can discretely wear with no concern of being 'outted' - until you leak, that is. So for part one, yes, time and experience have brought me to a point where I'm less afraid of wearing in public. Having someone speak out against scared sheep does nothing to change my attitude about wearing - now nor would it have in the past. The reason for that is really point two: I think we need to make some differentiation between personal situations. Because one person brought it up to her mother successfully doesn't mean that everyone is going to be so accepting. Read the posts! How many times have there been threads with post after post one saying - oh yes, tell those around you - I did and it went great - and the next saying - DON'T tell! I did and lost... Because I'm into diapers myself, I'd be a little more understanding, but how many non-diaper people would want their children taught by someone who wore diapers for the fun of it...would want to go for counseling, financial advice, personal advice, religious or faith advice from someone who wore diapers for the fun of it (or to men who wore women's underwear for the fun of it either)??? The fact that some people in some life situations can be 'accepted' even though those close to them do not approve necessarily, is NOT proof that NO ONE will reject an ab/dl. While I've taken to wearing more and more, I am admittedly one of those scared sheep because my wife has made very clear statements about her lack of understanding for men who wear women's underwear "If I ever came home and caught you in my underwear, I'd be out the door so fast..." I'm pretty sure, she just hasn't had occassion to make a similar comment about a 60 yo man wearing a diaper for the fun of it. My adult children are 'vanilla' enough (as am I, really) that they might accept it, but at a very high cost to my relationship with them. As for my job - I wouldn't stand a chance of keeping my job - take your American disabilities act and do as you wish with it, it isn't there to protect those with fetishes! AND finally, I like my life outside of diapers enough and have spent enough time getting to where I am in life (relationships - not money, power or prestige - believe me!). I don't care to risk all that, trusting that because SOME people are accepted those those around them, those around ME will automatically accept MY preference in underwear! Go ahead...call me a scared sheep. If it makes you feel better, call me anything you like. I'm secure in how I feel. I'm not better or worse than you and I bear you no ill will. It would be nice, however, if you judged me (and others) on MY circumstances rather than your own. And thanks for calming down the thread so I felt it was worthwhile adding my feelings.

looks like it works!!

Christian...but I have great respect for anyone who has a well thought out position on religion, whether Christian, Hindu, Buddhist, Muslim, agnostic, atheist, etc. I think it's a shame that so many people have had bad experiences with organized religion and have been turned off by it. I do understand - it's far too common and very hard to get past if at all. And for so many reasons... It's also a shame that some people have been turned off because they see the evil that has been done in the name of faith (whether Christianity, Islam or whatever...). It is true - bad people have done bad things throughout time and much of it has been done in the name of religion. It's too bad to deny the good that has been done by so many good people (also within and outside religion). Have you ever heard of someone claiming to have done something in the name of atheism?? So religion tends to get a rap... Good people do good things, bad people do bad things. We aren't perfect and even good people mess up and do some stupid, crummy things... It's too bad to completely associate that with religion and then get turned off by it. Its the human condition - good vs evil - and can be found in or out of religious circles. I think it's an even bigger shame that many people simply believe what is jammed down their throat in terms of faith - questions, doubts, personal beliefs are all important in my mind. I'm very suspect when someone wants to tell me what God says. I'll tell you what I say - I'll tell you what I believe God might be saying, but I can't be so sure...I'm only human. I suppose some people do truly believe that some humans are higher and closer to God and so in a better position to hear God's word...maybe that's true, but who do you trust to tell you that??? I personally just think we're all the same in God's eyes. So that's my slant on it - just statements and I'm not trying to convince anyone of anything. Again, I appreciate anyone who has actually thought out their position on faith and are willing to continue to think about it with an open mind. diaperpt

Rats!! Gotta pick!!! Well, I love cloth, but mostly wear disp - and also do disposable under cloth at times for 'special' occasions...selected cloth - I love the feel of nice thick cloth diapers...just no match for me! When I'm out in public I go with disp because they are thinner and less detectable (I think). Plastic is a clear choice, but OH NO!!! colors??? I have blue on right now, so that's what I selected, but I have and love pink and yellow!! ...oh, what's my mood, what's my mood...

wearing about as much as I can, but I'll try to wear more... and I need to 'lose' weight...mine is pretty 'loose' and jiggly now! haha!!

Oh, they are diapers, I agree with WetAttends...plastic panties,

Nuk 5 for me. but there are many out there...check around...ebay, look back in the forums for websites, lots of places on the web for them. some are pricey (but priceless!).

eeeuuuuwwww...gravy??? enough 'stuff' gets inside my diaper as it is! I don't want gravy down there! I'm thankful for so much I can't write it all...friends, family, opportunities,...so many other things as well...and of course, Daily Diapers!

ooowwwiieeee!! that hurts!!! you musta been plenty bad for mommy to do this!!! diaper rash just isn't fun!!!!!!

hmmm..."handled internally"...does that mean they were cathed?? Punish them with two weeks in diapers!! (or is that punishment? - please, please, punish me!) yeah, the comments were great...the whole thing is hilarious.

Her cookies contain large doses of Ex-Lax...

Oohhh...maybe I could use that thought on my wife...need the paci to stop me from grinding teeth! I wonder if it does anything for snoring as well?? That would put a paci in my mouth for the rest of my married life!!

I know this might be a distasteful topic for some...I'm sure many have already skipped over it. That's fine. I've been wearing diapers during the day at work (I'm lucky to be able to without any notice). I've also noticed a change in bowel habits. I used to be a very 'regular' type person - pretty much once per day, in the morning. Since wearing, I've noticed that even though I don't mind moving bowels while in a diaper, my body seems a little shy. I don't want to have a movement while people are around - though I've read the posts from people who do. I've often found my body holding it in until I get out of my diaper. There are some days when no one is around and I use my diaper during the day. Other times, I find that I 'need' to go at other times during the day. It seems like something subconscious is telling my body a message I didn't consciously intend. This isn't a big issue at all - just a question of curiosity. Have others of you found your bowel habits changed by wearing diapers part time, or by going to 24/7...or by any other change of diaper habits? I'm curious about your experiences. diaperpt

cute story...he certainly didn't plan ahead well, did he! Let's see, I can't get out of here, but I guess I'll just try on a bunch of my favorite things...they'll never know...hmmm...

Hope you didn't go hunting in that cute little dress! You certainly do look cute - I'd love to see a full shot of you like that. Even if you didn't wear your dress hunting, I hope you wore diapers - nothing more distracting than wet pants while you're hunting, eh? Seriously, love the outfit!

OK Diaperdragon...I think we got the idea...so look the other way! I don't wear panties for you...I wear them for me! I like the feel of them. And if I want to wear a bra, it's for me...so don't look! I'm not so sure I look great in a bra (or not...) but that isn't the point. I may not look good in a diaper either...but that isn't the point, is it! Live, let live, lighten up and enjoy life...in diapers, panties, bras, or otherwise! Life is too short not to enjoy yourself and to treat yourself well once in a while.
