What do you first remember about having a girl seeing you in diapers bother you so much? How old were you at the time? Why did this bother you? What did the girl(s) do to make you feel even more uncomfortable?

How did having boys see you in your diapers differ from having girls see you in your diapers? Why did it not bother you, or bother you as much or in the same ways, for boys to see you in your diapers as for girls?

What early impressions did you get about girls where you recognized that girls were different from boys? In addition to understanding anatomical differences, what other differences in appearance, clothing (including underwear) and behavior did you notice?

How, when and where did you begin to understand the anatomical differences between girls and boys? At what age did you see proof of this for yourself, and if so, how was this proof presented? How did you approach your parents (or vice versa) with such matters?

How did anatomical differences between boys and girls contribute to your feelings of discomfort when girls saw you in your diapers? Did you feel that your situation was different from the norms of most families and perhaps cultural or societal norms with regards to modesty and mixed-gender environments?

How did behavioral differences between boys and girls contribute to your feelings of discomfort when girls saw you in your diapers? Did you feel that your situation was different from the norms of most families and perhaps cultural or societal norms with regards to modesty and mixed-gender environments?

How did differences between the ways boys and girls are dressed (including differences in underwear) contribute to your feelings of discomfort when girls saw you in your diapers? Did you feel that your situation was different from the norms of most families and perhaps cultural or societal norms with regards to modesty and mixed-gender environments?

Why did it bother you to poop in your diapers in the presence of girls or to even have girls know that you pooped in your diapers when girls poop in the same way (anatomically) that boys do?

At what levels of involvement did having a girl see you in your diapers or know about you wearing diapers bother you? How much did it bother you for her to even know you wore diapers, much less see you in diapers, much less again touch your diapers and/or your private areas?

At what age did you feel more at ease about girls seeing you in diapers? How did you become more at ease and less bothered by girls seeing you in diapers?
