How did boys versus girls behave when they said things to you about your diapers? Name Age Answer Matt   16 I only really encounter young children in the changing rooms at the YMCA. Here they most often ask their fathers why an older person is wearing diapers, and stare in bewilderment. Arron and Chris   15 Most of them asked their moms why we wore diapers. soaker   64 I was 13 when I was put back into diapers and rubber pants. The younger kids would ask if I still wet and messed my diapers? And ask me how old I was. rob   12 You are a baby you are still wearing diapers.

Name Age Answer Matt   16 Most younger adults don't say anything, they just give me a quizzical look and then ignore me. If they do say anything, it's normally because it's some immature jerk with little sense of decency making some sarcastic comment. Again, mainly only men see my diapers. Arron and Chris   15 Passed by like nothing was wrong. soaker   64 I was diapered by many young female adults. The asking if I " need a change yet" was ongoing until I was changed rob   12 I find men stare at me most of the time but don't say much.

How do you wish the situation had been handled? Name Age Answer Matt   16 My most memorable experience was when I was 14. My family was on vacation in Mexico, and we were on the beach. I had been getting strange looks all day, and in the early afternoon a rather large group of Mexican teenagers walked by; about half were male and half were female, and the guys started laughing and saying things that they found very funny in Spanish. The girls got kind of mad and said things to the boys, who stopped pretty quickly; I guess they were defending me. I don't speak Spanish, so the entire experience was kind of amusing to me. soaker   64 My mother was changing me at a friends house on the daughter's bed. when the daughter and her friend walked in. The girls were my age and were very surprised to see me in a wet diapers. They watched as my mother pulled down my yellow plastic pants to reveal soaking wet diapers. They ask my mother if she could give then pointers on how to change a babys diaper. She was happy to show them every step. The girl was glad that my mother had placed me on a rubber sheet because "he was realy soaked". My mother told her that I was always a heavy wetter. My mother wiped the diaper area off and powered me. Next came many diapers and the girls helped pull up my baby blue plastic pants. One of the girls changed my diapers later that day to my total embarresment. rob   12 It is when my mom changed me at the ski hill I was almost 12 and it was a unisex bathroom. Apart from the stupid comments from some people there was this boy about 14 or 15 who was starring at me, boy was he a looker I got my first hard on, my mom couldnt beleive it she tried to hide it but too late. The boy his name is Kevin started laughing at my mom from all the moves my mom was making to hide me. After that I would not change a thing since Kevin became my best freind. Foud out later he wears diapers at night. Tom   23 A little boy asked why I wore a diaper and I told him I would wet myself if /i didn't. 75865463427377   14 I had just woken up, I went into my front room when one of my grandma's friends was coming in the door. That night I had gone to bed in nothing but my shirt and diaper and had wet during the night, so when my grandma's friend saw me wearing a wet diaper she asked if I was a bed wetter. Nicholas   13 It happened in a shopping center. I had pooped my diapers and i smelled very bad. Mom took me to the reast room to change my diapers. We had to wait before i could get up on the changing table and there was a mom with a baby and a young boy. The boy asked me a lot of questions about my diapers and startet to tease me too. After mom startet changing me i could feel him staring and he made comments about everything. I wish mom had said something to the boy and i wish that i had said something too and not just started to cry. What are your best comebacks or responses towards rude, nosy people?
