Is the word “diaper” still special to you?
7 years ago
I remember talking about this topic in the past on some old forums I used to go to, and it still interests me.
I still remember back when I was younger, especially before I found out there were other babyfurs in the world, I always had a really hard time saying the word “diaper”. I think this is true for the vast majority of babyfurs. I guess it was down to the fact that you know that for most people it’s just an everyday thing, but you as a babyfur, it’s extremely special...but that you can’t tell anyone that and that it’s pretty shameful/embarrassing.
But, becaus eofr most babyfurs diapers are the most essential aspect of it....when you get into the babyfur community, it starts becoming...saturated. It’s like when you eat too much of your favorite food or play your favorite game for too long....you used to it or desensitized to it. When EVERYONE loves diapers so much, while it is extremely comforting, it also starts feeling much more normal.
And I have to admit, there are times when that makes them feel less special. Even though I felt horrible as a kid for my babyfur feelings, part of me kind of felt special and unique because I remember feeling that diapers were MY thing. I felt like I had this secret connection to them that no one else did.
I think that’s why I like having non-babyfur characters in pics sometimes...it still makes you feel special for liking baby stuff, especially diapers. It’s also why it’s fun for there to be some playful teasing about diapers.
As an adult now, it’s much easier for me to say the word “diaper” in my normal life, since I’ve gotten used to separating my babyfur life so much that I’ve made it more normal in my mind. But, if I hear it unexpectedly or if I feel the need to say it, there still is that special embarrassing tingly feeling. And I hope I never completely lose that.
So I was curious how all of you babyfurs feel about the topic!

Diapers are made of cloth or synthetic disposable materials. Cloth diapers are composed of layers of fabric such as cotton, hemp, bamboo, microfiber, or even plastic fibers such as PLA or PU, and can be washed and reused multiple times. Disposable diapers contain absorbent chemicals and are thrown away after use.
Diapers are primarily worn by infants, toddlers who are not yet potty trained, and by children who experience bedwetting. They are also used by adults with incontinence, in certain circumstances where access to a toilet is unavailable or for psychological reasons. These can include those of advanced age, patients bed-bound in a hospital, individuals with certain types of physical or mental disability, diaper fetishists, and people working in extreme conditions, such as astronauts. It is not uncommon for people to wear diapers under dry suits.

but now I have no issue saying diaper! I find I say that word at least once a day.
So when you say it at least once a day....if you take out saying it around other babyfurs/ABDLs and take out saying it when you're by yourself, do you STILL say it at least once a day? That would be something...I don't see how you could go about saying it around non-babyfur people every day!
I still enjoy diaper commercials and the diaper aisle at the grocery store. They both still make me a little blushy, though not nearly as much as when I was a kid. Sometimes I still walk down the aisle just to get that feeling!
and I find it's more saying it to myself, or thinking about the word diaper. I don't talk about diapers with non-babyfurs. xD
ahh yes! I love the diaper aisle too! I still go down it at least oncw when i'm at the grocery store for old time's sake too! or if I need more wipes.
So it makes the whole thing an interesting double-edged sword to me.
Although when I was younger, I too have trouble mentioning that little "d word". But now, I could mention it without a problem.
It’s interesting how we as babyfurs not only get enjoyment out of wearing diapers, but also the idea of being changed. It makes sense, of course, with all of the psychological explanations of it. But I still think it’s interesting. I know for me, the idea of being changed, ESPECIALLY being powdered and having a new diaper put on, is one of the most enjoyable sensations.
Thst’s Why even if jokes ever come up about someone wearing a diaper for a joke or something, it doesn’t do much for me either.
It has to be the idea of someone acting like or being treated like a baby (especially in a cute rather than comical context) for the word diaper to start meaning something. But, in those situations, it REALLY does...the diaper part greatly enhances the baby experience.
