Orchidectomy

With considerable difficulty, I've recently obtained some PVC pants in a really thick material, 8mil. Having tried them for a couple of weeks, I'm amazed that such items are not more widely available. The heavy grade material leaves the wearer in no doubt that the pants are being worn. Both restrictive and reassuring at the same time. What do others think of making waterproof pants from such heavy material?

I do like the concept of denial of sight of your own boy-bits and I'm glad to hear, Dizzy, that you are being kept to that r

I do like the idea of the bib overalls as daywear, but might a lycra leotard underneath be a better (maybe also cheaper) proposition than a onesie?

Personally, I feel that a Kigurumi would hide the fact that I'm diapered. Fine if that's what you want, but my preferences tend towards the opposite. Wearing a disposable diaper for practicality (apologies to the environmental lobby - I live in an apartment with inadequate drying facilities for terry squares), I like that to be held snugly in place by a onesie. Then towelling pants for a bit more bulk, topped off with oversize and very noisy PEVA (not PVC) plastic pants. I only change to quieter PVC pants when I go out.

I've read your posts in the thread "My Catheter/peebag Adventures" but I'm unclear whether you found the catheter helpful in terms of avoiding sleep disturbance. Could you clarify, please? I don't think I'd have the nerve to try inserting anything like a Foley catheter myself, but maybe a Sheath Catheter might suffice for an experiment to determine whether turning in my sleep did or did not cause detachment or malfunction. My guess is that it would work for me by day but not by night.

Time for a recap, methinks. The original post was a question, not a statement. It asked: " Do night-time diapers help prevent Alzheimers?" What is clear from the published scientific research is that uninterrupted deep sleep is beneficial in preventing Alzheimers. There's no disputing that; it is a done deal to the accepted standards of scientific proof. So what are the implications as regards action? Rather obviously, prevent deep sleep being interrupted - by whatever means that can be devised. So the question becomes: Is diapering one way of preventing interruption of deep sleep? My answer is "maybe". There are pre-requisites: The sleeper has to be prone to getting up several times per night, either to go for a wee or because they are wet. Without diapering, such awakening has to produce significant interruption of deep sleep. With diapering, the individual sleeps through episodes that would otherwise have awakened them. If those three tests are met, then it seems that diapering does indeed have a role to play, as the hypothesis contained in the question suggests. Improbable though it may sound.

Elfy... It is well established in the branch of mathematics we call statistics that correlation does not of itself prove a causal relationship between two variables. There are statistical ways of distinguishing between causation and coincidence, but they only identify the probability of causation. To conclusively prove causation, one needs to go further and identify the causal mechanism. In the case at point, that has been done to accepted standards of scientific proof. So, far from the matter still being mere correlation, it is a done deal in terms of explaining why there is a failure to clear the amyloid deposits. That's why the search is now on for two things: In the realm of prevention: Enhancing uninterrupted deep sleep, to aid the natural process, and... In the realm of cure: Developing drugs that will promote clearance by mimicking or stimulating the natural process. The diapering suggestion is, at most, one possible contribution to the matter of enhancing uninterrupted deep sleep. It may sound absurd, but when I was born the idea of man walking on the moon was absurd. With so much at stake, surely we should consider all possibilities - even those initially suggested tongue-in-cheek?

Jason, You wrote " By your logic, then you should never have kids, because, well, you know, babies cry quite a bit during the night." Nonsense! I did not say that, neither did I infer it. What I am suggesting is that all forms of sleep disturbance should be identified and remedied where possible and to the extent possible, so as to avoid interruption of deep sleep and thus head off the problem of failure to clear beta-amyloid deposits. That does not imply finding a single remedy. In such circumstances several partial remedies working together can be equally beneficial. Dlover49 has it right. Having to get up during the night is an age-related matter. Any benefit from diapering to help sleep through isn't going to contribute to the overall situation until an inability to sleep through without diapering arises. But once that age has been reached, why not take advantage of the potential benefit that diapering can offer?

This is where I first found out about the new discoveries: http://www.bbc.co.uk/mediacentre/latestnews/2016/horizon-curing-alzheimers Unless in the UK you are unlikely to be able to stream the video. However, the key words are these: " A new system inside the brain has been discovered which clears amyloid in deep sleep, but allows it to accumulate when we don

Willy pointing down... In an AB that probably would constrain a Dinky to the point where erections never develop fully, but not effective when naked during diaper changes, being bathed and so on. Masturbation to ejaculation by the caregiver does seem to be the answer to the prostate health issue. But how often and by what method?

In respect of the male AB, one thing the caregiver needs to consider (not an issue with a real baby) is the advisability of inducing ejaculation from time to time in order to avoid a build-up of stale semen in the prostate - something thought to highten the risk of prostate cancer. This suggests that enforced chastity has to be done responsibly. How should "relief" be arranged, and how often? Give the AB time out from his play role, to participate in either intercourse or masturbation as an adult? Not really on if the role play is intended to be 24/24. Or should the caregiver masturbate the AB to climax at appropriate intervals, strictly perpetuating the ban on the AB boy touching his own genitals? If so, what form should physical contact with the caregiver take? Or should the anti-masturbation chastity rule be relaxed from time to time, whilst perpetuating AB dressing? (Example: AB allowed to slip a hand down a loose-fitting diaper a couple of time a week, ejaculating into it?) Other possibilities may exist... can you think of any?

Ha-ha! Not all one wetting; probably six or even more. The great thing about high-capacity diapers is that, once trained to use them subconsciously, one does not need to wake up several times per night to pass one bladder-full each time. Uninterrupted sleep is so much better! It's not just the waking-up that diapering saves, it's the time spent getting back to sleep after each visit to the bathroom. Really high capacity diapers mean fewer changes, too. I reckon that, in the event of my adopting 24/24 diapering rather than just evening and night-time as at present, I would only need two changes per day.

Hi, Alan... Not wanting to make the introduction too lengthy, I somewhat understated what I now regard as the really scary bit. What would life have been like if I had been castrated, especially during the second surgery? Would I have been in diapers for keeps, as well as minus some of my reproductive hardware? If any of our members have personal experience in that regard, I'd be very interested to know their story. Failed orchidopexy is a bit of a hush-hush subject, I reckon. Time that the secrets came out of the closet. What proportion of bilaterally cryptorchid boys were castrated and how many became incontinent for more than just a few days after surgery? Chris

This should have been written a couple of weeks ago, introducing myself before I posted to other threads. Apologies.

Cool, maybe. But scary given the true background. At 11 I needed genital surgery for undescended and apparently totally absent testicles. Nowadays that would be sorted before age 2. Then (by which I mean the early 1960s) things were left until the first signs of puberty and the swelling gonads became palpable. No ultrasound imaging in those days, so no way of finding where the missing bits were hiding! The first attempt was not successful; a "short plumbing" problem prevented my balls being placed where they should have been and an experimental fix was implemented. An unintended side effect was that, for a whole year (actually 53 weeks), I was of necessity back in diapers. Quite why the procedure induced a degree of incontinence, I have never understood. I knew at the time that a second attempt at orchidopexy was to follow and I now know that if salvage had failed a second time I was to be castrated as a precaution against testicular cancer. Hence my assumed ID on this site. My diaper/chastity 'play' follows the what if

Interesting. So for you, the diapering came before the chastity cage and the chastity enforcement goes inside the diaper. Exactly the opposite of my position on both counts.

In my case, it was the chastity aspect that came first. I was a chronic masturbator and in fun (pretending to adopt the prudish attitudes of my great-grandparents, who were Strict Baptists and thus abhorred masturbation), I started to wear a lockable garment at night in an attempt to break the habit. That gave rise to a requirement for diapering because I never have been able to sleep right through the night without having a wee. Over my diaper and plastic pants, I wear a variation on the onesie theme - one that fastens at the shoulder rather than between the legs. Tight leg openings prevent access that way. Even if released at the shoulders, the onesie cannot be removed at night because it is fastened at the waist by a combination lock belt that is impossible to open in the dark. This I fashioned from a lockable luggage strap. Direct stimulation through the diaper had little effect, but when successful the diaper disposed of the evidence. In time, I became diaper-dependent, so now the whole routine has taken on a different motivation - a dry bed and uninterrupted sleep. Sexual stimulation became confined to daytime. Hmmm... Should I start wearing diapers 24/24?

Engaging in any sort of physical stimulation whilst diapered isn't exactly easy. Do you consider that diapers should / should not also function as chastity enforcers, to stop AB engaging in self-arousal? Whichever opinion you hold, what design attributes of diapers / waterproof pants / onesies / sleepwear do you recommend to facilitate or enforce your preference?
