I was in a reflective mood a few days ago and got to thinking... I received my hearing aides back from the shop after falling into a stream fishing and frying them. I was so grateful to have them again and hear all that I had been missing for the last month. Thinking about it made me wonder why I am so accepting of wearing hearing aides and glasses but still worry about the stigma attached with wearing diapers. I am not going to go scream from the top of the hill that I wear diapers but at the same time I am tired of hiding the fact I need to wear them and worry about others finding out. Society these days are a lot more accepting of just about everything yet a lot of us live in quasi fear of others finding out we have to wear some form of protection.

Although your fear of being outed is real, do not allow it to imprison you. There are so many of us that major retailors and manufacturers see the market for incontinence supplies as well worth their effort. No stigma can long resist the profit motive. Diapers are my underwear; if somebody wants to stigmatize me, I'll go elsewhere. |
