One of the very first websites I ever saw was a forum for men who wear diapers. This was a friend\u2019s way of introducing me to the world of the internet. I forgot all about it until recently, when someone sent me a link to the Diaperstation. This site caters to adults who want to be babies, and it looks like they\u2019ve thought of just about everything!<\/p>\n

Adult size cloth diapers and plastic pants must\u2019ve been hard to find before the internet. What I really love at the Diaperstation are the cute cotton-knit onesies<\/a> that come in pink and blue. Who wouldn\u2019t look cute in one of those? For the adult baby with lots of spare room and a decent salary, there is a huge custom-made crib.<\/p>\n

I like the idea of babyhood for everyone. But I\u2019m not sure what it means. I can see how comforting it would be to pretend we are little and helpless and cute. It implies that a nice big mommy will take care of everything. I believe that this is the primal condition that everyone struggles to overcome, even as their unconscious minds long to return to it. Once we are potty-trained, it\u2019s the beginning of the end, in terms of our dependence on mommy.<\/p>\n

In my own life, I can see how much my kids resent independence. I must have given them too much or too little attention. But I\u2019ve heard that soldiers dying on the battlefield cry out for mommy. I\u2019ve read that college students who practice the phrase \u201c Mommy and \u00a0I are One” \u00a0 <\/a>do better on tests.<\/p>\n

Mommy! We all want you!<\/p>\n

If we can\u2019t have mommy, there are some scary looking ladies<\/a> who will pretend to be your mommy\u2026.but I must say, they look like Mean Mommies. This is the part I don\u2019t get. Why does the fetish involve mean mommies and punishment, rather than a nice mommy who isn\u2019t mad? \u00a0 I already had an angry mommy. It\u2019s way over-rated. But I think I\u2019d look cute in the ruffled Rhumba Pants<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
