Diapered Daddies?

[JohnApple]

Hello! I'm brand new to these forums, but I figured the best way to get myself involved with the community here was to start my own topic that I haven't had the luxury of talking about with other DD/LG people. As a Daddy, I absolutely love to diaper my little. I find it extremely adorable and I personally think there's no better way to indulge in the daddy dom lifestyle than to make your little feel comfy and secure in a nice, crinkly diaper.

 

However, from time to time, I also like to wear diapers. I'm not a "switch", I'm not an AB, and I don't become little myself. It's just something that I find comforting to wear along with my little. Now the last time I brought this up (on Tumblr), I received a ton of heat. I was told that "Daddies should NEVER wear diapers especially around their littles" and that essentially I was ruining what a "dd/lg relationship" meant.

 

Now I know it's not exactly normal in a dd/lg relationship, and I can totally undertand littles not wanting their daddies to wear diapers, but I didn't expect to get so much backlash and hate for something that I thought was so innocent. So my question is... am I in the minority here thinking that it's OK for daddies to wear diapers with their littles just for fun? Am I crazy for doing it? What are everyone's thoughts on this?

 

Thank you

Personally, I think you should do whatever makes you and your little happy. If that's it then so be it. No one has the right to tell you how the relationship should be that's up for you and your little to decide. :-) Just my opinion though. XC

I think its totally fine for daddies to wear diapers, if i can wear a diaper, why cant they?

No you are not crazy! There's plenty of daddies JUST exactly like you. I know at least 5 of them personally including my own   Regardless your desire to wear diapers shouldn't have any impact on your "eligibility" of being a daddy!

 

So like there seems to be this general societal belief that diapers are only for babies, and if you wear them you must be a baby. I strongly disagree with that sentiment as a catch all rule of thumb like so many see it as. I think that's kinda where that backlash might come from. So because the little is the "younger" role in the relationship, the older one can't do something so "associated" with youth? No that is absolutely not true. Diapers don't have to be associated with that! So many people wear diapers for so many different reasons, be it incontinence, convenience and leisure, comfort, sexual reasons, and so forth. To be extra clear, what I'm saying here is not that diapers cannot be a symbol of being a youth or being baby… but rather that it doesn't have to be a symbol of that.

 

Now, I'm incontinent myself, so I wear diapers to manage that, and in my time wearing them I've come a long way and become very open minded about it. I personally believe that if anyone wants to wear diapers, the go for it! I don't care if its for medical reasons or not, who cares really? It's their life and they should be free to do whatever they want without judgement. 

 

I've had to deal with the immense amount of stigma related to diaper wearing even if you have a perfectly explainable medical explanation for needing to use them. Society just thinks diapers are a big joke. Diapers are unfortunately one of the things society is allowed to openly ridicule and poke humor at, which is very unfortunate thing. It just should not be this way at all  >  

 

So anyway, what I say is this: If you want to wear diapers go for it! Don't worry about what other people say or if they put you down. They have no right to tell you what to do. Just realize you certainly are certainly not alone. There are plenty of people out there who also wear diapers for a huge variety of reasons, and even a bunch of daddies who do too!

Thank you for the support everyone, I'm glad to see I'm not crazy after all

 

ashwee, I totally agree with what you're saying and feel much better after reading your post! Also, kudos to your daddy for also wearing

 

It honestly surprised me more than it upset me. We're part of a huge, loving, and caring community, full of strange, beautiful, different people! We're very accepting of things that aren't considered "normal" in society, yet I received so much hate for something so small. I really don't know why they were so defensive about it!

 

A bit off topic, but there was also a very similar situation where a controversy started (on a different forum a while back) because I referred to Pullups as "diapers". I guess it just shows that no matter where you are or what community you're in, there's always gotta be a couple of bad apples who start drama for seemingly no reason!

Sounds like the people who gave you backlash are crazy! You should wear whatever you want to! If you like it and it makes you happy then do it. You aren't hurting anyone.

Thank you!! Apparently that concept is too much for some people to grasp! Besides, what better way to make your little feel better about an accident than wearing a diaper along with her?

[JohnApple]

What! No way you're not crazy! One, diapers are comfy as hell. Even for myself, I don't feel any more little while I'm wearing a diaper but I enjoy the feel of it. Two, there aren't any "rules" to the ddlg lifestyle (well perhaps no illegal stuff buuut you know what I mean!). You do what makes you happy and if your little doesn't mind then those people should just mind their own business!

Thank you! I'm really glad you understand too! Wearing diapers for me is not about feeling little, but just for enjoying the comfort and convenience of them. I'm so glad there are littles like you!

Now the last time I brought this up (on Tumblr), I received a ton of heat. I was told that "Daddies should NEVER wear diapers especially around their littles" and that essentially I was ruining what a "dd/lg relationship" meant.

 

The irony behind what you've been told on Tumblr (among perhaps other sites as well) is that, the true essence behind the DD/LG lifestyle (to me at least) is simply integrating and living the roles of Daddy/Mommy and Little with-in your own comforts of life. Your pleasures are just that, your own. There is no script, nor is there a stone tablet containing the 10 commandments of DD/LG. It is how you make it, and how it makes you and your partner feel special.

 

Wear them with pride!

Haha thank you, I laughed at the commandments part I actually thought it was pretty funny that I was being told I was breaking the unwritten "rules" of being part of a DD/LG lifestyle. As if we were some sort of exclusive membership club that you can only be a part of with the approval from random strangers on the internet. I'm so glad to see that this was an isolated case, and that this place is the face of the true DD/LG community

[Guest DaddyDoLil]

I'm glad you enjoyed the 10 commandments joke, lol.

I won't lie though, no matter the forum or community you find, you may still bump into purest/elitists out there (or even here) Just know, it reallllllly does not matter, in the slightest.

Oh I totally get that no matter where you go, what community you're in, or how friendly a group is. there will always be those "elitists" that for whatever reason, try to make sure everyone stays within the limits that they have set. Tumblr, however, seems to be a haven for them, and I'm not sure why. Of course, I'm not saying that all Tumblr DD/LG bloggers are like that (I'm one myself), but it just seems that the very outspoken "my way or the highway" people of any community seem to gravitate toward Tumblr. It's why I had to take a break from there!

 

Of course I never let it bother me too much, but I could only handle so much by ignoring them through gritted teeth before I had to distance myself from their negative and prestigious attitudes!

This reminds me of my former little, she had times when she wanted to try "being like daddy" and she would pretend like she was the dom but would always end up giggling any time she tried to and I found it extremely cute. If your relationship has aspects like that I think it can be a healthy way of bonding and maybe even get you a better understanding of WHY your little likes being little or WHY your dom likes to be a dom. The people giving you backlash are rude and close minded in a community built on accepting each other.
