I wear a diaper all the time ever since prostate surgery back in the early 90's. There are times I feel I have some control but generally never make it. I quit even trying to hold it along time back due to constant dribble, so the hell with it.
I am sure it was cloth pin on diapers and probably rubber pants. I still use pin on diapers and still call then rubber pants even thou they are made of plastic/vinyl.
