Thank you BobCooper. Since I am only dribbling after urinating in the toilet and I was expecting keeping the same diaper (assuming that is my choice) on all day as I assume a little baby powder will absorb sweat and I wouldn't likely ever come close to saturating the diaper. My question is really this. If because of either saturation or the adhesive strip doesn't hold and so I change the pad for comfort, is using a pad likely to be more bother or expense than a diaper, assuming that the diaper doesn't need changing (just throw it away before bed, as I don't need nighttime protection). If a pad/shield was constantly needing readjusting I would go nuts.
Regarding my wife, I do cherish the unconditional support she gives although I don't see the big deal about washing my underwear. I do see her point about wetness showing through dress clothes. She's embarrassed and I get that.

In terms of the dribbling after you have been to the loo if you run your fingers from the base of the bottom to the base of the man bits it can stimulate extra urine flow.
If you are using pads you will need good compression/stretch briefs to hold the pad securely in place as this will avoid the pad from slipping etc. One thing to note is that you will need to take into account how active you are and if this will cause the protection to move, in my situation this persuaded me to go down the diaper path.
See the link below as it will help with the powder question.
