What DON'T you like about Diapers

I do not like the new adult diapers since they went to the cloth like outer cover. I want my diapers to be plastic on the outside and make noise as I walk.

I don't like to use disposables because I'm keen on living naturally, and disposables have to be disposed of and they're terribly bad for the environment. So I always use cloth, which are reusable lots of times. I'm a keen runner and cyclist, and I can't wear diapers for that because they are uncomfortable and slow you down, and they're unnecessary too, because I nearly always run or cycle in shorts, and when I wee I can just wet them, because it doesn't show much on lycra or nylon.

The thing I don't like about diapers is NOT WEARING THEM! I love my diapers!

What I really hate is diapers with a bad absorption system. There are diapers that just seem to be like sponges, sucking things up and easily squeezing them out. Then there are diapers with the kind of cut-up fluff lining that holds liquid in very well, but bunch up and absorb at a somewhat slow pace compared to the sponge type.

Then there are the gel diapers. They absorb slowly, hold a lot and don't have much in the way of press-out from wetting. The only thing is that they really seem to stretch out under the plastic. I've had a situation where just poking the front of the diaper caused a finger-sized hole to form, and the wet gel to come spilling out. I don't know if this was a problem with the gel-type absorption system or the plastic lining, but I didn't like it. Then again, I've only experienced the Secure-XPlus version of the gel system, so who knows. I could be wrong.

I don't like that society has a problem with those of us that have to wear them. I hate that people think diapers are for babies or older folks. I don't like not being able to buy good quality extended wear diapers locally. I don't like how much it cost just to try and live a simple life. Having to spend $100 to $150 a month just so that I can be an active, working, living person. I don't like that my insurance doesn't cover the cost of diapers. I am not fecal incontinent thank God, cause I wouldn't like having to clean up away from home.

My diapers are my underwear. The last part I don't like about diapers is in order to save money, and give myself a break, I have to use a Foley Catheter all the time. Even though I have had a little more freedom using a Foley, There is something to be said about the safe secure feeling a diaper gives you.

What I don't like about diapers. Well, my dislike may be a bit off the real intent of the question. But, what I don't like is, the invention of the disposable diaper! I don't hate the disposable in and of itself. But I hate what it did to make cloth diapers and plastic pants die out!!! 😢 I hate how and when cloth diapers and plastic pants fell by the wayside. I can't help feeling this way, because that's where I came from. I thought it was so sad growing up, seeing less and less of them.

I have to say, I do wear and use disposables and I feel they do have a place, but I still miss the old days of cloth and plastic pants as the main type of diaper system used.

This is what I dislike about diapers.

Luvsit, I understand your feelings completely. Back in the fifties and sixties I remember going into Woolworth's and Kresge's department store and here in Canada Simpson's and Eaton's and going to the infant/baby departments and seeing and feeling all the different styles and thicknesses and softness and that new plastic smell of the plastic panties. Now you can't even find baby and toddler size plastic baby pants anymore :'( :'( :'( :'(

I hate a big pack of diaper which I cannot pick it up - discreetly 😢

I hate it when all the gel leaks out and if i leak the diaper doesn't absorb enough liquid. Also the tabs break off and some won't stick. So annoying yet they charge enough for them.

Messy leaks from the backside (I need a baby diaper in horizontal position at the back), smell of poo in the pores of my skin after prolonged wearing.

I don't like diapers that are not thirsty (don't absorb much). 😢 Don't really like the wet feeling. 😢 Design also not that much choice.

That you have to be careful into what you do just in case of an unpleasant incident or some leakage unless you pad yourself up so much that you can barely walk.

Hello what i don't like is getting a rash. Happens alot during the summer. I'll use a less absorbent diaper during the day and change more often so far that has been working for me this summer.

They leak! hope i can pee and pee without it leaking lol

..but I still miss the old days of cloth and plastic pants as the main type of diaper system used.

Luvs It, it's a good thing that Jenny at Babykins is able to supply us with the best of the best. Love her cloth products. Hope she is there forever.

I agree Fred, I'm planing on another order of Kins soon.

Absolutely - Respect, professionalism, and the staff at Kins will help with our needs. I have been buying all my diaper products from them practically since they opened, and continue to maintain that respect. They are a rare gem.

I don't like the taboo of it. I don't like that people have to hide something from society that makes them happy and feel secure.

I don't like that they don't make babyish diapers in adult sizes that really look and feel like baby diapers.....and more over pullups.

In Canada there are a series of ads now viewing on TV for disposable diaper pull-ups showing men and women definitely younger than the senior age. With these ads, it leaves one with the impression that it's almost normal to wear diapers. Who would have believed it! Maybe the taboos we don't like about diaper wearing are falling away.

Wanting to be changed and not having anyone who wants to...

it gets hot....

accidentally messing them... no fun!

What I don't like about diapers is that they are not something I am able to put on and wear whenever I feel like it. I go crazy waiting for the opportunities to put one on and relax.

sticky tapes that don't stick very well, it's not nice when you are out and the tapes come undone especially if you are wearing a short skirt.

😮 That is a nuisance for sure. Whenever I use that type of diaper I am sure to have a cloth nearby to wipe my hands after powder and before taping. No problems then. Did you make that dress in your avatar pic?

Yes, the heat does suck some days. I'm glad I'm using breathable diapers during the day this summer. It has helped cut back on diaper rash.

Heat, sweaty diapers and diaper rash!

Two words (diaper-rash) hate it, hate it, hate it, well that and any morning i wake up and not wet my diapers over night ughh what a waste of money changing a dry diaper..

MB, can't help w/the rash cuase you know how to fix it or prevent it but why don't you just wait until you use your diaper before you change out of a dry one?

DJC, they still be someplace. did you check for your pink boys under the ruffles, maybe they graduated while you were away.

Donnajean, those people would act like you are a nut if they wore cloth and you liked disposables, just mentally flush them and go on with being your own awesome self. 😃 😄 😁

Humidity and diapers do not mix... other than that i have no complaints.

I love thick cloth diapers and plastic pants. What I don't like is diaper rash as I have medication for my rheumatoid arthritis that changes the color and acidity of my pee makes me more susceptible to diaper rash if not changed often enough, the other thing I sort of hate is having no-one to change me when I'm wet.

I don't like the idea that people who have never tried it, think it is so bad.

These same people spend thousands to go to a spa and have other people rub them with baby oil and think it is so great.

There is nothing I DON'T like about wearing diapers. I love them! 😎 I have to wear them so it is a good thing that I love my diapers! 😁
