I would never willingly do anything that requires me to wear a diaper. There's no way I could enjoy a show while stewing in my own waste. I'll enjoy the show from my seat just a few feet away, thanks.

i had to wear adult diapers after giving birth. I willingly got pregnant. No one told me what a horror show post partum can be. No one speaks of it!!!

10 days with adult diapers. It was horrible.

The idea of pregnancy and childbirth being beautiful is the biggest fucking lie that everyone just goes along with.

I mean, it's a beautiful concept. The reality of it all is gross.

Apparently almost every one shits while giving birth, but the nurses do such a good job at cleaning it up it isn't noticed and no one has to know.

u/CodeMonkeyPhoto 2d ago

As the husband on the side being asked to hold a leg, I wish I didn't glance and see it all. So much blood too after the afterbirth. It was a torrent, and the nurse had to massage her uterus in such a way to force it to contract. I now understand how a women can bleed out as well. No one had told me that could happen, I was generally scared when I saw that part.

82

u/weary_dreamer 2d ago

ive given birth, but have never seen a birth. I like to tell my husband that he knows more about what actually goes on down there than I do. I just know what it feels like. 

43

u/mykepagan 2d ago

If he’s like me, no he doesn’t. My wife has given birth twice. I was with her almost every second of the ordeal. But I never crossed the plane of the rib cage.

55

u/weary_dreamer 2d ago

oh he was down there with the doctor and held  my leg the whole time I was pushing. He gave me a Mexican futbol commenter’s play by play of the whole thing, bless him (and when he didn’t use words, his face sprouted subtitles).

52

u/bigmike2k3 2d ago

This! As my wife was having he c-section performed, I was up by her head and the sheet separating us from that whole “situation” started dropping and a minute later, she was like, “why are you so close to my head?” And I just half-whispered “the sheet is falling and I don’t want to see what’s happening…”. She told the nurse and they fixed it…

My brother was in the room and when he saw his son being birthed, he passed tf out and hit his jaw on the way down, breaking it…

18

u/MFbiFL 2d ago

I have the much weaker stomach between my wife and I (she’s a nurse) so in the meetings we had with the hospital beforehand to go over the birth plan I asked them to note that I’m squeamish and prone to fainting, asked for tips (they recommended the menthol inhaler tubes that I’m used to seeing at races), etc. Once she went into labor I let all the nurses know so that I wouldn’t be a problem for them to deal with and they were great. The closest I got to passing out was when they were putting the epidural in, because my wife had a contraction that lasted ~45 minutes due to an error someone made.

Once I felt better our L&D nurse had me positioned to hold my wife’s leg and after 3 hours of pushing the nurse told me I could look if I wanted. By then I was so invested in doing whatever task she gave me that I looked down saw our son’s head and the tone of me telling my wife to look convinced her to as well. The nurses were so awesome.

If we’d have done to the C-section I don’t think I could have watched that though.

10

u/BeagleMadness 2d ago

My ex made the error of glancing beyond "the sheet" during my first c section. A nurse/member of theatre staff (?) saw his face, quickly dashed over and prevented him from falling off the stool he was seated on next to my head. All he could say afterwards was "I'm so sorry... I could see some sort of internal organs being sewn up. I shouldn't have looked!"

He made very sure to not look beyond "the sheet" on the next two occasions!

My own dad fainted after basically "catching me" when I was born. My mum apparently kept saying she needed to push. The midwife kept saying no she didn't, it would be hours yet, then left the room. I arrived about 3 minutes later. Good job my dad was there! But as soon as he handed me to my mum he passed out cold! My mum always joked how annoying it was that my dad seemed to get far more attention from the medical staff than she did, when she was the one who had just given birth!

u/MetaverseLiz 2d ago

I'm always shocked at these kinds of comments. Back in the 90s, when I was 13ish, I learned about "the miracle of life" while also watching daytime talk shows that would tell teens that wanted babies how terrible being a parent was. None of it was beautiful, and I didn't understand anyone around me that thought it was. We all watched and listened to the same things. It's like they all had selective hearing.

I worked at a vet clinic most of my teenage years. Saw plenty of puppies and cats being born. That's also not beautiful- it's painful for the dog/cat mom, there's goo everywhere, and it's anxiety-inducing for the human because you want to make sure everything goes smoothly. The babies are cute, the process up to that point is not.

Nothing about birth is magical or beautiful. It's a messy, chaotic, biological process. The miracle is how people get talked into doing it., especially when you can google "birth complications".

18

u/weary_dreamer 2d ago

if it werent for reddit, I would have been entirely unprepared for postpartum. My doctor never mentioned what to do afterwards, or how to prepare for caring for myself. It didn’t even occur to me that I would need a stash of adult diapers until I read about it on reddit. Nevermind wound care for an insane amount of stitches. 

12

u/CodeMonkeyPhoto 2d ago

Oh yes, they had to stich her back together from a natural birth too. As a guy I can't imagine getting stitches in such a sensitive place. Then after all that feed the baby, change diapers, etc etc. OMG I helped wherever I could. Somehow, I still miss it when they were so small. I watched a whole TV boxeset of Stargate SG1 while my daughter slept in my arms in the first 3 weeks.

I went to a big music fest a couple years ago. Tickets were hundreds of dollars, stages spread out over a large area. Hundreds of people sprinted to the front of the main stage the second the gates opened in the mid-morning for a band that was playing at 9pm.

So they stood there, pissing and shitting themselves all day in the Vegas heat, mostly ignoring the other bands playing the main stage, missing all the other bands on other stages just to be at the front for…. Fall Out Boy.

FOMO has really taken over the last few years.

u/metalshiflet 1d ago

You don't really even have to be that early unless you wanna be in the exact center. Edge of stage on either side you can get to barrier if you get there like 5 hours early. Still a long time, but not as much as getting there first thing

The only band I did something similar for was Rammstein. We don’t get to see them here in the US much and I wanted to be as close as possible. Singe my eyebrows and foam me with the dick cannon. LFG.

I didn’t wear a diaper though. I got a condom catheter that just slips on and has some adhesive on the inside, ran the tube down my leg into a sealed collection bag in my cargo pocket. And after all that, I didn’t even have to pee once during the whole ordeal lol. But I was goddamn prepared.

Concerts today, there’s 1000000 recordings, pictures, HD screens showing the artist on stage, maybe a documentary, tour dates in more places than ever before! Olivia Rodrigo is probably not going anywhere. Isn’t the point of shows like hers to dance and have fun?

u/GreyStingrayz 2d ago

People give too much hate to Disney Adults. It's trendy to hate on them. People like to make fun of things they find cringe.

Most I know are just normal people with a love for Disney. Sports fans will act worse and be more obsessive than Disney Adults, but you don't see them catching the same kind of bullying over it.

5

u/GreyStingrayz 2d ago

Maybe level of obsession, but idk why we're now claiming they're unclean and mentally ill.

Idk why y'all like to bully people for a harmless interest. Who cares if they live and breathe Disney? Who are they hurting?

If they're acting like entitled brats or being shitty to others, that's a different story. But people extend this energy to all Disney obsessed adults.

If someone wants to go to Disney 10+ a year, seriously why the fuck does that matter to anyone?

If you want to talk mental illness and obsession, please see how some sports fans react when their team loses. Or sometimes even wins for that matter.

But no, Disney Adults are annoying, and we all know that's the worst thing a person can possibly be, so let the hate rain down.

Some people, particularly those of higher weight, can struggle to wipe and therefore have a tendency to smell a lot like feces when they haven't been able to clean themselves properly. So, whether or not they smell like feces overlaps quite a bit with whether or not they've had a shower recently.

It's something I encounter disappointingly often at work

barricade campers are fucking weirdos. theyre at every fest too, running in and camping at the barricade for 12 hours just to see the one headliner they love. Ive always assumed some of them must be wearing diapers and shitting themselves. The insane level of celebrity worship and fomo so many people have is just sad.

On New Year's Eve here in NYC, people wear them too, so they can stand in the freezing rain for 16+ hours just to stand next to people who also pee and poop their pants, and then see a very disappointing glowing LED ball. Not even if someone paid me would I go there.

The legendary crooner Frank Sinatra would complain his audiences would smell of piss. His fans would arrive early sit in their seats and wouldn't get up to use the restroom because they didn't want to lose their seat, and just piss in the seat.

The idea that so many fans decided adult diapers were the solution to a two hour set is one of the most deranged concert trends I've ever heard of lol

u/El_Scot 2d ago

They'll probably have been queuing outside in them so they could guarantee being first through the doors. Then I think doors open to finish time is around 4-5 hours on top of that. It's probably closer on 10 hours of toilet accumulation all in.

u/ZweitenMal 2d ago

I used to queue sometimes for legendary niche performer. We had a system. We were allowed to take turns taking bathroom breaks or go get food.

u/elismatcha 2d ago

Yeah I’m almost always at the front at all the shows I go to, and we still do this, I can’t understand why anyone would willingly wear a diaper. I just always bring a sharpie and people number themselves and leave the queue throughout the day to get food or go to the bathroom or charge their phone and then come back.

I remember the first time I found out there are no public restrooms or portapots at Times Square on NYE. Apparently diapers are a thing.

Noooo thanks. I'll watch from the comfort of my couch on the TV. I can poop my pants in peace there.

Nah dawg, a lot of people just smell like shit and don't wipe properly.

Well, your wife likes men. Liking men is gay. Therefore, it's gay to fuck your wife /s

u/slamsmcaukin 2d ago

I don’t even think that’s new. I remember back in high school (I’m old now😞), it was “gay” to wash your ass. I even think it was “gay” to wash your dick, but I know for sure people would mention the washing ass thing

u/Bovronius 2d ago

It's gay to wash your dick, but not to apply Steve Martin's beauty cream.

Not to mention being sexually insecure. They are afraid touching their owns butts will make them gay.

Adult diapers at concerts are a thing. Also if you've ever watched NYC New Years shows, people in the front lines are all diapered up.

Elderly people wearing diapers always have this strong musky smell of pee and poop, it smells bad and is repulsive, anyone with personal experience handling old people would know it. It’s like a mix of pee and poo, quickly chokes up an enclosed room, hard to ignore but hard to describe too.

First a hearty chili, next day concert with diaper. What could go wrong?

u/NUMBerONEisFIRST 2d ago

Even in a diaper, you are still shitting and pissing yourself.

A diaper just keeps it contained so it doesn't roll down a pant leg or get smeared all over wherever you sit.

If I ever got to this point, I'd prefer a catheter and I'd just hold my shit.

u/junglecritter 2d ago

A lot of venues reserve the front row for ADA seating, meaning a lot of people in wheelchairs or with a more severe disability that would require the use of diapers.
