After a while, I got over my own particular preferences regarding diapers. I just use them because I have to. It's as simple as that. When I sleep at night, I have to wear them. At age 67 there is no longer any more reason to make anything more out of it than what it actually is. I have to...

Yes! I believe that in my own case, somehow diapers probably became imprinted on my own little "love-circuit." What I mean by that is that in my own case I know for certain that my caregivers changed their attitude towards me significantly after I had been toilet trained, to the point where I...

If you look up the word "incontinence" in Wikipedia, you'll find that it doesn't have a single definition at all. It has multiple and somewhat seemingly contradictory definitions. The reason that the article has its own definitions there, I believe is because there is a need for these...

When an older person such as myself can't make it to the bathroom in time, we get told by our doctors that we have "functional incontinence," despite the fact that if we didn't have mobility issues, we could make it in time. As the great nonagenarian, Betty White once quipped, "Getting old aint...

I apologize, you are right as far as the view that incontinence and diapers are really the same thing, but they're just not really the same thing. Adult diapers are frequently used for occupational and other purposes for people who are continent. Do you disagree? Good point though....

Yes, Wikipedia can be a real "meatgrinder" especially for those of the fairer sex. Testosterone flows freely over there. In my not so humble opinion, they could use a lot more kindness over there, and a little less rudeness.

Great idea! I'll see if I might somehow be able to weave that into the beginning. Thanks for the comment!

Everybody else here seems to like the edit. I don't see any problem describing one noteworthy use of adult diapers as an "occupational tool" in the beginning. It tends to grab the reader's interest, because that is indeed one legitimate use for them. Do you feel that we should "hide" this...

PS: Regarding editing Wikipedia.... it took me several years to learn how to edit Wikipedia without having my edits erased nearly immediately, nearly every time. New editors are always welcomed there. Still, unless you might be willing to put up with a bunch of overworked editors who instead...

Hi Bunny Fofo, You are entirely correct. You are obviously someone who cares about Wikipedia too. Are you an editor there too? The facts that both astronauts and poultry workers have to wear diapers are duly cited facts. My own belief that we might do better as ABDL's if we stop feeling so...

Hi Michelmc, Thanks for the heads-up on the need to update the Wikipedia article on Diapers. I just updated it: Here. I'm not always able to do all updates that folks ask me to, but that was such a "no brainer, that I went ahead and did the update. Thanks, Yooda

Direct Link to the Wikipedia Article on- ** Adult Diapers ** Read the second paragraph of the article. You could read the article directly at: Wikipedia- Adult Diapers. I probably should have put these links in this thread's first post. Better late than never.

Yes, those of us who have a few more years under our belts (so to speak), are probably far less comfortable with the idea of other adults openly wearing diapers in public. I could never be a part of such a prank. Still, I think that whoever made that video, did have a legitimate point. I...

Technology has changed our society, and so do I believe it has changed ABDL'ism. Before modern technology, incontinence posed a much more severe risk or danger to the individual than it does now. It used to be assumed that once an older person became incontinent again, that person was probably...

I agree entirely! What I call ABDL'ism, is in my view no different than being born as a homosexual. Our society has told our homosexuals for centuries that they could change if they "just" wanted to, but this was not true. Now our society is still having trouble accepting the possibility that...
