Swim diapers are disgusting. Unlike real diapers that absorb and catch all manner of tiny human waste, swim diapers are just turd filters. Everything else gets through. Source: I have kids.

I mean it's better than your kid going filterless and leaving the turd in the pool.

Not saying it isn't, but the term "swim diaper" doesn't manage expectations very well.

Thank god a friend warned me about that before I used them. She didn't know and her twins peed themselves big time the first time they wore it at a beach and she was flabbergasted.

I hate to break it to you but a lot of adults in swimming pools are pissing, and they aren’t wearing anything remotely like a diaper of any kind lol

Chlorine is doing a lot of heavy lifting for us.

I mean the way people leave public restrooms is probably the same way the water in a swimming pool is

I'll never get this out of my head, but speaking of restrooms. I went to the toilet at my old work, and there was literally an empty yogurt cup and a banana peel inside it on the ground. I'll never understand wtf some people do there.

My old coworker always talked about how at the place he worked at before they would take their morning cup of coffee into the restroom and drink their coffee and talk as they pooped and he always wanted us to do that. Something about eating in a restroom just doesn't feel right to me
