In highschool I worked at a pharmacy. 30-something man looks lost so I ask him if I can help him find something. He says diapers and I assume he's a father so I stupidly say "the adult ones are right down there but you don't need those ha ha, the baby diapers are down aisle 1"
You can guess the rest of the story...
Could have simply been looking after an elderly parent.
That or recovering from a surgery.
There’s plenty of reasons someone might need adult diapers without being old. Not that it’s any less embarrassing for some people either way.
A really bad UTI could cause temporary need for diapers too, and some women use adult diapers after giving birth as they work better for lochia(after birth bleeding can be intense from what i hear).
He was very embarrassed but it very well could have not been for him personally. Either way it was a dumbass thing to say!
