Japanese women wear diapers to avoid going to the toilet
News On Japan via odditycentral.com -- Oct 10

Weird as it may seem, there are people out there who would rather wear an uncomfortable diaper all day long than go to the bathroom. Japanese media reports adult diapers are increasingly popular among Japanese women who say wearing them saves them a lot of time.

In an article titled "The Ultimate Form of Slob", Japanese magazine SPA describes the hottest trend in the Land of the Rising Sun. No, it's not the brainwave-operated tail for humans, that's still just a prototype, but something way more disturbing.

The masculinization of women has become a very popular topic in Japan, as statistics say more and more females don't clean their rooms as often as they used to, leave their underwear all over the place and don't even bother to remove unwanted bodily hair, but one magazine seems to have identified the ultimate slobs - women who wear diapers to avoid using the toilet.

草食系男子の増加とともに、"女性の男性化"も叫ばれて久しい昨今。「部屋の片付けをしない」、「下着は上下バラバラ」、「ムダ毛の処理もさぼる」などと、"外見こそキレイでも実はズボラ"という女性が、増えているようだ。
