In 1998 or 1999, age 12, when I first saw Tampons ads advertizing their product as better than Maxi Pads because they don't feel like diapers - I, like many men in this forum, raided my mom's Kotex Maxi pads to simiulate a diaper, feeding into my fetish.
This thread isn't about me, though. And I'll discuss my own experiences with Pads in a separate thread.
------------
This thread is meant to be a comprehensive understanding of the subjective experiences with girls an their wearing of pads/maxi pads as a teen, adult, and also diaper fetishist.

2. Did you start with Maxi Pads? If Yes, what brand? and if No, what prouct did you use for your period?

Thank you.
