MickeyM said:I picked up a copy of this. As I expected, I couldn't watch it all without cringing.
While there needs to be more recognition for our community, I didnt feel this "mockumentary" really did it any more justice then any other adult baby episodes done.
One of the segments focuses on how some guy in TN is going to give it all up to go live with some random "Daddy"
While It didnt go into more detail about the relationship, on the surface I felt that this is portraying a negative image about "us" as being, impulsive and reckless. (Implies not thinking the dangers through)
Who knows what motives this guy has for wanting to take in an adult baby.
The other focuses on some girl, who also has some other kinks too. I'm less critical on this segment, she made some good points about getting away from abuse, and being herself.
I don't think many people could fault her, as compared to the other guy mentioned above.
And the last segment, of course. While I feel "Mitchy" was not too obnoxious about the whole situation, as a viewer and part of the community, I felt uneasy about a lot of the play segments, as well as some of the naked shots (yes, only a diaper is naked).
As this is his thread, I'll just leave it there. I mean, maybe I'm just afraid of the possible repercussions and negative views any possible portion of the episode might bring.
Though, I'm not sure what else could be said that has not really already been said in the thread, but, the types of media that would help get good word about "us" would be more of an academic and holistic approach, not an MTV kink-like approach to focus on ratings.
One thing to keep in mind is that we've only watched a few minutes of these people's lives. So while it may look strange and impulsive for that one guy to go live with the other two, most likely it wasn't, and I think it kind of shows that it wasn't to be honest.
I think that from all of the tv shows about abdl, this is probably the best and the less judgemental I've watched.
Of course, other people watching are still going to be judgemental, but that's on them. We can't live constantly worrying about what others think.
Also, to Mitchy, I identified more with you as well. To the others it seemed to imply some sort of easily identified childhood trauma that caused it, which is not my case or yours and it also it didn't seemed like it was a sexual kink to you. Although I do get aroused most of the time when in diapers, the focus or interest, is not on any sexual activity, it's instead just about regressing and feeling little.
