Travel plans

Plan for my business trip next week:
  • Take as little "conventional" clothes as possible. I.e. the only "conventional guy" clothes I want to bring are those that my colleagues will see: dress shirts, suit and dress shoes. Everything else I will take only my "special clothes". That means I won't be bringing men's underwear, no socks, no men's clothes to exercise or travel in.
  • Travel clothes (cross-country daytime flight): diaper, plastic pants, wool tights, mock turtleneck leotard, lady's crop pants (to show off my tights), a jacket.
  • I am also considering wearing a long leg unitard so that I cannot easily take off my diaper until I get to my hotel.
  • Once I get to my destination and go to the office there, I will wear: diaper, onesie, tights, pant liner, dress shirt, suit, dress shoes.
  • When exercising I will wear a leotard and leggings. Hm. I need to find a solution for socks when exercising. Should I wear tights instead? More to come...
I am excited!

Regular work-from-home day

Ah, the kids are finally at school!

What am I wearing today:
  • Abena Abri-Flex pullups (XPMedical)
  • a pair of black woll/cotton tights (Macy's)
  • a long black pant liner (JCPenny)
  • a brown long-sleeve mock turtleneck bodysuit (www.bodysuit.com)
  • long pants and a v-neck sweater (boring guy stuff)
I love the pant liner over the tights, as it allows my pants to glide freely.

I absolutely love feeling the bulge of diaper between my leg.

Wearing women's clothes

Where is the limit between wearing unconventional clothes and crossdressing? This is a question I am always struggling with. I want to believe that it is acceptable and maybe even my duty to push the envelope of generally accepted conventions of what clothes men can wear.

Case in point: I want to wear clothes that expose the tights I am wearing. I could wear a skirt (too much in-your-face), shorts (looks odd) or crop pants. So I choose crop pants that extend below my knees.

Let's see what's happening.

Dry Comforts diapers at the office

On Monday I had a regular work day at the office. I went dressed in boring conventional clothes. Some time toward the middle of the morning I remembered that I had ordered a bag of the most noisy or crinkly diapers that the postings on ADISC suggested. I went to the mail room and sure enough there was the box for me. I took it to my office, opened it, took out a diaper, went to the bathroom and put it on. At that point I was wearing slacks with only the diaper underneath.

Walking around the office I tried to assess how much the noise of the diaper was audible by others. After an hour of wearing the diaper while getting the usual work done (conference calls, walkign to a colleagues desk, getting water etc.) I took it off. It was so noisy! The crinkling was hardly any less noisy than if I had tied a plastic shopping bag around my bottom. Amazing.

Conclusion: Dry Comfort are the noisiest diapers around.
