I wear Honig's plate pants so no one even notices the thigh pads-or if they do, no one says anything like wuss or stuff like that. Both catchers thought I would be hurt or complaining and I didn't even make a sound. Nor did I tell them about the thigh pads. Just a suggestion. And for those of you who think Wuss/Puss or other derogatory comments, I don't care. I just got back into shape after a bad health episode and I don't want to derail my cardio workouts due to deep thigh bruising. My walks are the keys to my newfound physical and mental health.
