I'm going with bobbilly on this one. Every month or so, a few of these articles crops up where someone posts about wanting incontinence/bedwetting/etc. Then people jump in and give the usual "you don't want this" speeches. My favorite is the "I am offended because I have incontinence and you shouldn't want what I have" speech. Seriously people, this is an ABDL board. Being offended by the reason someone might wear diapers differently than you ridiculous! Something that hurts nobody but the poster isn't much different than being offended by having to "look" upon a gay person in your church. Anti-gay people for example might argue that by a person being gay, this would negatively affect their entire family as well as the church they go to, so the gay person is therefore selfish when in reality the problem is with the intolerant person and the gay person happens to be living in their "truth"? Is it possible those that desire incontinence, whether or not they make it happen, are indeed living in their "truth"?
I have to say the information given by SnowPrincessSophie is refreshing and certainly lends more towards supporting people. The topic does border (and may cross the line in some people's opinions) into the self-harm category, but this is supposed to be a support group. This topic has been discussed since prior to the internet becoming mainstream (the BBS days). You can Google it and the hypnosis audio files have been made at least since the late 80s to achieve this and I don't see it going away anytime soon. For those that have a true mental illness or who request this type of thing may have been victims of child abuse, or other traumatic experiences. I'd rather see replies along the lines of sympathy rather than those that can just alienate these people. Just as those who feel they can't become "complete" unless surgically changing genders, which depending on your opinion, would be in the self-harm category, I don't see desired incontinence any different.
There is a percentage of people, albeit probably very small as SnowPrincessSophie has said, that truly wouldn't feel complete otherwise. Just about everyone who reads and posts on this site are not accepted by our culture as a whole at the present time, so I'm shocked at times how judgmental some of these off-the-cuff posts are. If we cannot be accepting of others similar to us, how can we expect society as a whole to accept ABDL's? I'm not saying to violate the rules of this blog, but a change in attitude towards others is overdue. We might all learn something. Rant over.
