No memories of wearing diapers, no desires, and no accidents...at least until puberty.

Mikey knows what he's talking about!

Mmm, I'm not a type-A person either.

I'd never recommend that! I have the same problem...and sometimes am glad for it.

For some reason I always thought this was a guy thing, too! Some guys can't pee at the urinal if another guy is nearby. But I can't pee my pants if someone is nearby. Unfortunately I haven't figured it out yet either, and it's been particularly troubling when traveling (flying, or a passenger in someone else's car). I even have a hard time when visiting the home of a local DL friend. I suppose it's like anything else: practice, practice, practice. The other other option would seem to be putting yourself in a situation where you're surrounded by people. Sort of like immersion therapy, but immediately going for the worst case scenario. In this situation, I assume you would adjust pretty quickly. Just my two cents. (BTW, I think you'd get more replies in the "Our Lifestyle" forum, instead of in a sub forum.)

It was working last night, but as of right now is again being redirected to the fetishcrowd.com site. Seems you're having continuing database/spam problems. Hope you can get it resolved soon.

Mmm, it's now 11/8 and I'm still hitting www.diaper.fetishcrowd.com. So the old site is still alive??

I don't see an announcement that the Diapermates.com site has changed again, the 11/3 list of DailyDiapers site (and related) updates looks quite normal, and the whois information for both domains also still matches...didn't realize that DailyDiapers has a Dutch (!) connection. But there's obviously something going on. Perhaps my ISP is using old DNS information? Or was the DNS hacked? I can see what happened, but I'm trying to figure out how and why...... Thanks.

I second Rusty Pins' recommendations. I've found the best place to change is often an older gas station with private men's/women's restrooms, or perhaps just a single unisex restroom. (The cleanliness may be lacking, but I can deal with that.) Newer, mega gas stations tend to have very large bathrooms with multiple stalls, so there is much less chance for privacy. Older fast food restaurants are good for this, too, but you won't know if the restroom design is single-use without checking first. Supermarkets are often good, too, provided they have a public restroom. I also once had a no-pressure change at a Best Buy, which had a very large mens room. I suppose electronics stores and supermarkets don't typically see much foot traffic from their male customers? Changing at a mall is okay, but I would try to use the mens room at an anchor store over a bathroom in the mall area, for the reduced traffic. Even then, you still won't know the foot traffic until you've tried it once. I once had a bad experience at a Sears, where the mens room near the electronics department was unexpectedly busy. I was in the handicapped stall, and it had a faulty latch. An older guy opened the door on me! I just smiled and said "hi". I don't know why he wanted the handicapped stall in the first place, as he didn't have a special need, besides taking the stall next to me and then really stinking up the place. Excessive foot traffic isn't necessarily a bad thing, though. With all the noise and commotion at airports, I have never found changes there particularly stressful. A few years ago, I was out of town for the day at a record show, and changed in the very busy mens room at the hotel's convention center. There was so much mechanical noise...pipes clanging, blowers running, etc...that changing was also quite relaxing. I always try to dispose of my diaper in the mens room, unless their trash can is one of those tiny bins built into the wall that isn't big enough for two cereal boxes. In those cases the used diaper goes back into my changing kit, and I will try to find a dumpster outside, or later along my route. Worst case scenario is that it comes back home with me. My very first experience changing in public was back in...2001? I took a laxative and then drove out of town for the day, so I would have to change and couldn't chicken out. It hit me in the parking lot outside a supermarket. They had a huge, single restroom at the front of the store. Everything went well...except for a store employee who apparently mistook me for a co-worker. He parked himself outside the door, and occasionally shouted things into the bathroom, apparently trying to tease them. As I exited, I looked him straight in the face and made a very forced smile. Later that day I had to change again. This time I was at a mall, and the doors on the mens room stalls were missing. (Apparently not an uncommon phenomenon, hehe.) I remember just standing there, puzzled, wondering what I should do and thinking back to my elementary school, which also had no doors on the stalls. I opted to get back in the car and change at my next stop, a mall across town. But there I chose to change in the mens room near the food court, which was one of the busiest restrooms I've ever seen! The handicapped stall was at the far end of room and took up the entire width, so anyone walking in would have their eyes dart across it briefly. There was also ZERO background noise, and every crinkle, every tape sound was torture. That diaper change must have taken 15 minutes! My heart still races a little today when I need to change in an unfamiliar setting, but it's infinitely easier than those first attempts.

From roughly 2001 to 2004, I would go running 4-5 miles, usually 4 times a week. On a few occasions I tried it diapered. My bladder capacity was beginning to shrink, but I don't recall if the diapers got used or not. No complaints, with one exception. Back then I was switching between Wal-Mart's Assurance brand and Attends (with waistband). That Attends waistband was something else...I could never get it tight enough, and the diapers kept falling down! Every 15 paces or so, I would need to tug them up! There was also the obvious crinkle noise when passing people on the street. I would love to take up running again, and as I've now started wearing 24/7, I know it will be diapered. But if my current brands present the same problem, I will need to find a really stretchy brief for support. Oh, and on a deserted stretch of country road (typically at 10-11pm) I would briefly lose the running shorts! Ah, to be unencumbered!

Thanks, that wasn't the answer I expected, but it certainly makes sense now. And yes, I've noticed that Diapermates and security haven't always gone hand-in-hand. Perhaps IM's might make a comeback sometime in the future?

Odd choice of languages in the poll, so guess I'm "none of the above". I've never been paid to do programming as full-time job but can usually bang something out when needed. I've worked with Javascript, VBS/VBA, PHP, Python, and a little Perl. Also worked with some mobile-only languages: Mortscript and PLUA (that's pretty obscure). If we're getting historical, I once briefly tried Basic programming on the Intellivision computer, and recall that 10 PRINT "HELLO" 20 GOTO 10 failed. Also did the Commodore 64 thing (Basic and assembly). ARexx as well. To some degree, I still do, hmmmm..... While I have some time on my hands over the next couple months (recently got laid off), I do want to finally nail down shell scripting. Was never really interested in Windows programming. Too much Windows software out there already, hehe.

Okay, I hope I don't embarrass myself in asking this question. Twice now while logged into DiaperMates, I was contacted by other users through a built-in, web-based IM. How is this done??? When viewing the list of logged-in users, I see the popup with options like Contact, Befriend, Get Email, but there's no option for IM. In the last incarnation of DM (just a few months ago?) I think there was a "Presence" area with an IM option, but I don't see any such option now. I even did some reading on Dolphin, in the hope that a tutorial would include a picture of the IM button, but no such luck. Perhaps this is a pay-only feature?

I had some issues with vertigo roughly 10 years ago. I would lay in bed at night and it would seem as if the room was spinning around me. I spoke to my GP who recommended I get more exercise. I did, and the problem went away immediately. (I also lost 60 lbs. in the process.) Your cure may not be so simple, but if you could be too sedentary, it's worth a try.

I can wet laying on my back or stomach no problem (even when asleep!) and just recently conquered sitting. Both can still be problems if lots of people are around, but that wasn't part of the question. Years ago, I did manage a couple times to release while walking, and not missing a beat. Currently eluding me. But I have never been able wet while driving, which is so frustrating, as that's such a perfect use for diapers.

I've been a regularly-practicing DL for over 10 years, and for over the first 5 (excluding one nasty yeast infection), didn't know the meaning of diaper rash. Today, certain parts of my body (upper thighs, face, and maybe stomach) can start to break out in red bumps if I keep the same diaper on too long. My "cure" (besides forcing myself to change, even if I'm nowhere near saturated) is lots of zinc oxide cream and powder. Cream all over the, umm, delicate bits, and some powder in the diaper to help prevent the cream from sticking and rubbing off. I'd really like to try a product like "silicon glove", available from Avon (scented) and also better automotive dealers (hopefully unscented), which is designed to not come off until you want it off, but so far haven't made the initiative. High quality 40% zinc oxide cream is available at Wal-Mart for approx. $2.47 for a 4oz tube, which is a steal compared to every other retailer I've checked, even though Wal-Mart recently raised the price. Hope that helps.

There's a user called Diperlord on diapermates.com, claiming to be 14. Judging from his pictures, that is entirely possible. DD, I'll leave what to do to your discretion. I do sympathize, because that's roughly the age when I started. If you end up bouncing him, perhaps send him a few TB links? The TB forum at http://www.adisc.org comes to mind. Thanks.

It's a size 6?? Thanks for the explanation, and for the news that European kid diapers run big. Had no idea. I can wear XL pullups, but they've not entirely comfortable. If the opportunity presents itself, I wouldn't mind trying a European size 6 in any brand some day...

My favorite use of the phrase, from Comedy Central's short-lived "That's My Bush": George Bush wants to put their "old, smelly" cat Pun'kin to sleep. Laura overhears the conversation, and thinks George is talking about her. She gets a prescription douche from her doctor, but George thinks it's the drug he needs to kill the cat. George and his best friend, his next-door-neighbor Larry, have the cat on his desk in the Oval Office, trying to figure out how to apply it to the (animatronic) cat. Advisor Karl Rove walks in... Rove: "Mister President, what are you doing with that douche?!" Bush (whiny): "But Karl, Larry's my friend!" I giggle every time.

See this pic. (The URL will likely cycle to something else in a few days.) Is it a reusable diaper wrap? The way it fits, it looks like a disposable, but I don't think printed diapers have progressed much beyond the original Bambinos. If it's a disposable, I want some!!

I don't understand how anybody is going to know what kind of underwear you're wearing?? These "body scanners" they're talking about are available at only a small percentage of airports, and they don't work in real time. I was subject to one once in Baltimore (wet diaper at all), and it was roughly a minute between the time I stepped in and when I was cleared to go. The airport had one scanner for at least three metal detector/x-ray lines. So even the airports that have scanners can't be examining everybody. The waits would be enormous! Or are they patting everyone down now instead? Or training TSA workers to stare at people's crotches? FYI, I may be flying to California in 2 weeks...

I'm adding myself to this thread a bit late, but I'm in Lancaster county. If anybody wants to chat, PM me or use depends4me@mail.com .
