Benjamin Posted May 13, 2014 Share Posted May 13, 2014 Cloth is my preferred diaper while at home or running errands, but since it isn't always convenient (especially when flying), a pack of quality disposables is a wonderful thing to have around. Blue, Pink, Yellow, all very cute, for me blue wins by a small margin, just by a tiny amount though because pink is just awesome for plastic(er, vinyl) pants! Link to comment
Guest diaperboykcmo Posted May 14, 2014 Share Posted May 14, 2014 disposable, blue, plastic.. Link to comment
Kari Posted May 21, 2014 Share Posted May 21, 2014 Even though I've never owned a pair, I picked rubber pants. I guess they are the original waterproof pantie from the all cloth era? Actually, I'm not sure of the material my waterproof panties are that I have. Link to comment
Little BabyDoll Christine Posted May 22, 2014 Share Posted May 22, 2014 You demonstrate the point I have made and talked about over and over. The generic term comes from my parents' generation. That is what we learned them as and we, in turn transferred that, which made it generic for 3-1/2 generations: 1915 to 1985. That kinda of locked it in place as a generic term Link to comment
Dubious Posted May 25, 2014 Share Posted May 25, 2014 Cant vote since I don't use plastic covers etc Link to comment
Diaperedtight Posted June 15, 2014 Share Posted June 15, 2014 This poll needs a little fettling, I never wear coloured plastic pants but the poll would not record my results unless I lied, so I out Blue, I prefer clear or white. Link to comment
diaper baby 76 Posted June 16, 2014 Share Posted June 16, 2014 Yellow couldn't really vote on plastic vinyl or pul bc iv only used pul and as comfy as cloth may be i just don't have time to.do more laundry already lucky to wash cloths for work Link to comment
Diaperedtight Posted June 16, 2014 Share Posted June 16, 2014 I think that my choice of transparent or putting it another way having no preference for 'pretty' colours just adds credence to the fact I have no AB tendencies that I am aware of and simply choose functionality over colour.

WeaselDiaperBoy Posted July 6, 2014 Share Posted July 6, 2014 I wear disposable s most of the time but I will always prefer cloth. Link to comment
Little BabyDoll Christine Posted July 6, 2014 Share Posted July 6, 2014 We never made the distinction: It was all "rubber panties" and that was the end of it Link to comment
willnotwill Posted July 6, 2014 Share Posted July 6, 2014 I'm not sure the differentiation of plastic vs. vinyl is. Link to comment

vvp39 Posted February 13, 2015 Share Posted February 13, 2015 "I'm not sure the differentiation of plastic vs. vinyl is." I don't get that either. Afaik plastic pants are vinyl pants...unless the distinction that is meant is between polyvinyl chloride and other types of plastic such as PEVA and polyurethane. Link to comment
Little BabyDoll Christine Posted February 13, 2015 Share Posted February 13, 2015 the other types PEVA and PU are far too new to have been around when this distinction started to be made and are too new to be listed as "classic". Someone once said that the difference was between the smooth and the grainy material. But for the overwhelming bulk of my life. they were all called "rubber" anyway and that is what I call them out of a 65 year old habit Link to comment
