What are your favorite nicknames for a diaper? If you simply say “diaper” or “nappy”, tell us that, too. You can also share which nicknames you dislike.
I think of diapers as “diapers”. Due to the shame of being a DL, the word itself has a negative connotation for me, but I still use it in my mind, in speech and in writing. (If I disliked a word enough, I do not use it at all, even if it’s pretty inconvenient to replace it with euphemisms.) My “little” side, which is still in its infancy (ha ha), could enjoy “diapie”.
It took me some time to be able to say diaper outloud.
I say diaper. Never really used nicknames.
Though as a kid the word diaper wasn’t said much. Usually it was “change” need a change? time for a change.
I also find around here everyone in the medical field or medical supply stores won’t say diapers. I think that’s a dignity thing as many don’t want to wear “diapers”
So they say protection or call them by the brand name but diaper is never uttered.
For many diaper is a dirty word or embarrassing word.
Me too. Took me over 50 years to let someone in my secret ABDL world. And now that my girl knows. I still struggle to use the word due to years of shame. In my head, I love thinking of it as my diaper. But can’t get comfortable in speech or writing.
my little side loves diapie too, but I am the only one that knows that. I never told her or use that word around her.
We use Dip sometimes for short and I have have also used BMD. Which was my acronym for behavior modification device. Lol. I made it up because they make me feel submissive always, and sometimes little too.
It’s for the dignity of the wearer in both cases. You were fortunate to have parents who tried protecting yours. I’m sure, though, that they had to call it something when out of your hearing range (when discussing the buying and/or washing of them, and if other adults had to be told about them).
Because that’s what they were. I remember saying to mom I would like to wear a diaper to school because I was wearing diapers to bed and didn’t want an accident at school. Mom wrote a note too my teacher that I was in a diaper. Though teacher never talked to me about it.
but you’re correct dignity is the main reason many won’t say diapers because of the diaper stigma
Diapers are for babies. Because it was decided shame was the best way to get older kids to potty train and the diaper stigma was born.
Nappy is my native and favourite word and like hti24, makes my pulse quicken. I couldn’t say it out loud out of embarrassment! I like to say “I’m diapered” because it flows better than “nappied” IMO. I like it described as padding or getting padded up.
Silly names like dip and especially pamps rubs me up the wrong way.
Like someone else said, growing up Pampers were synonymous with diapers so pretty much disposable diapers were Pampers.
When I was younger I would create stories in my head about situations with other people and diapers. For some reason I differentiated Pampers and diapers in my fantasies. Both did the same thing but Pampers were superior to diapers and you needed to be rich to have Pampers (I know silly but I was probably around 10).
Now I like the word Diaper and I don’t find it shameful but kind of taboo but when we started having kids I got to say the word Pampers, diaper or diapers out loud. I sort of got a thrill from it. To this day I still love the word Diaper(s) but now that my kids are older I don’t say it out loud too much anymore unless I’m discussing something and I say “When they were in diapers…” or something like that to describe a time era.
Sorry, all that but I don’t have a nickname. I very much dislike the term Dip or Dips. Again, when my children were in diapers (hehe) we would say “let’s go get you a fresh bum”, or something like that, which meant change your diaper.
I guess I’ll have to keep thinking about a good nickname. Until then, say it loud and say it proud…
Hi There’s a book that helped me to overcome negative abdl feelings of shame guilt, and fear. If you’re interested, please send me a message. Have a great day
agree - hate briefs. I dont know why, I think because I have a little side to me. I feel like a child in my diaper - and you never put your kid in briefs. lol
rubs me up the wrong way.
