  1. Yeah, plastic pants are probably the only thing that will help address the “pointing upwards” issue, alongside cloth diapers (which generally require plastic pants/waterproof covers anyway). But if you urinate that way while lying down, it’s just going to flow up and across your pelvic area and out down the sides where there’s no padding in a disposable, it’s just a matter of gravity and fluid dynamics (wetting pointing upwards while standing is less of an issue). If the pointing upwards is due to being aroused, then best to just deal with that in the obvious way before urinating. If it’s just a matter of anatomy/comfort, then it doesn’t take more than a second or two to adjust things before you “go to the toilet” in your nappy, assuming you’re doing so while awake. A lot less hassle than it is to get up and visit the bathroom anyway!
  2. There are some practical/safety challenges however you work it so it probably isn’t something that everyone will ever be happy with. Certainly an option alongside existing facilities for flexibility though. Taking away urinals completely would make male urination less quick and efficient, so increasing queuing/requirement for facilities across the board.
  3. I don’t think so, as you’re likely to wet out of the waistband… you’re going away from where most of the padding is.
  4. They should do, but positioning is key. Lie on your back and point straight down into the padding, then let go and you’ll be fine… whereas wetting lying on your side has a high risk of leakage whatever you wear.
  5. Trampolines for women, sponsored by Tena? 😉
  6. The nappy industry includes large pharmaceutical/hygiene conglomerates so probably does carry a fair bit of weight (and I don’t just mean that of the average 10kg case of adult nappies!) Guess things will vary by country as well, in terms of the degree of stigma around incontinence/protective products and the level of commercialisation of the health sector (which can encompass providers of medications, surgery, and absorbent products, each with their own vested interests). One thing that has been massively destigmatised in recent years is washable period pants - largely I guess through being discreet, looking like regular underwear, and being environmentally friendly. They’re still a “diaper” in a sense, though, and are also marketed for light bladder leakage, though a discreet washable product for heavy urinary incontinence is still a long way off. But it’s interesting to see how this has quickly been normalised. Anyway, I’d say that if [insert religious/non-religious power of your choice] had intended women to be potty-trained, they wouldn’t have invented absorbent underwear 😉
  7. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-68672186 It’s definitely the way forward… over to you, Pampers 😉
  8. Interesting points! I don’t think it has to be a case of protection and treatment working against each other, as destigmatising the whole thing could help both those who want and are able to get the condition cured/improved, and those who need (or choose) to rely on absorbent products. Ideal scenario is perhaps the two working in harmony, with commercials basically saying “Did you know, incontinence is very common and can often be successfully treated. So see your doctor, but while you’re waiting for a solution, our amazing discreet nappies will allow you to live your normal life!”
  9. Well yeah, Kegel exercises is fair enough as a starting point, but they won’t deal with the more severe cases. Women with “diaper-level” incontinence do tend to be pushed towards more risky surgical treatments. Just look at the recent pelvic mesh scandal, which has left many women with permanent pain and internal damage, and often when it’s removed they are left in nappies anyway.
  10. That is an interesting one! Is there any noticeable variation when women wet diapers/pull-ups, in terms of whether it mostly goes towards the front or back, or does the padding distribute it fairly evenly in any case?
  11. My "everyday" taped nappies are Tena Slip Active Fit Ultima and Drylife Slip Super. I'm currently wearing a Tena Pants Maxi pull-up, which are the most absorbent pull-up variety I've found, and can hold as much as a mid-range taped nappy. I've also recently tried some NRU Str8Up for a really bulky extended wear/wetting nappy.
  12. What sort of pull-up is this? It’s basically a bikini brief fit on her, no idea how it stays up when wet…
  13. Yeah, just don’t… obviously you know them and might have an idea how they’ll react, but at best it will be awkward, at worst it will permanently change your relationship with them. I know, hiding stuff is stressful, especially when you live under the same roof… but better to do your best in that regard and just deal with it in the hopefully unlikely event of something being discovered (best to prepare a strategy for that, in any case). Or wait until you’ve found the opportunity to move out.
  14. But you need the absorbent products while waiting for/undergoing treatment, and in the cases where it proves incurable… there’s still many people who will barely leave the house due to incontinence, and the normalisation of the products must have helped a lot who were in that situation. It’s still not gone far enough in terms of normalising the heavier absorbency products that many need. It’s like them saying don’t wear/promote glasses and contact lenses because you should have laser eye surgery, or don’t use a hearing aid, get your ears fixed! A nappy is just another wearable solution to a common health issue, it’s not a harmful substance (well, fair enough, it’s not great for the environment if half the population is peeing themselves in disposable underwear, but aside from that…) and it’s only an artificially created stigma that makes them less acceptable than other such wearable aids. I heard once that if incontinence were a country, it would have a larger population than the USA, so there will surely always be a market there!
