¿no regression, no little?

[Guest LittleAbby]

There is something that has been bothering me for a while. And I see that many littles talk about having regressions. But I do not have them. Then I feel a little bad because once a little told me that if you do not have regressions you are not a little for real. And my question is, do you need regressions to be a little?

i don't think so! i'm still learning so please take what i say with a grain of salt, but i personally don't believe you have to? i kind of do both where sometimes i'm little and that's it! that's all there is to it, but other times, i "fall" or "regress" into a little mindset (usually i can't control when i do that, but other times it happens naturally? i'm still figuring it all out) 

 

please don't feel bad if you don't regress, or fall, or whatever other terminology others want to use, if you're a little, than you're a little! simple as that

I don't regress, I just am little an enjoy being treated little. There's no psychological affectation required to have a kink or lifestyle...

(   at the people who tell you that, because I've been told that true regression isn't the most healthy thing and is often in response to trauma)

Having been around the scene for a lot of years I can tell you that yes, age regression was the distinguishing factor that made DD/lg unique.. The good news is that one of the important principles about BDSM is that we can adapt any scene or dynamic to fit our needs

 

I recently posted a comment about the difference between age regression and age play. Have a look on my profile for it

 

In simple terms, take what fits for you and run with it

No it's not... The distinguishing factor of such a dynamic can't be placed on an individual's character since a lot of different people are a part of it and everyone is different. The distinguishing factor would be a caregiving role of one partner or more. Furthermore even the distinguishing factor of a little isn't age regression but identity. It's like genders, if you identify as a little then you are it. The more you learn about the lifestyle the more your little identity will mature and develop.

 

@DaddyClassic. I get you're trying to look smart but please get a bit more experience before getting involved in real life..

I'm pretty sure that the CG/l dynamic first became popularized among gay/bisexual men and then slowly became modernized among a wider group of people... And actually had little to nothing to do with age regression and more so to do with "keeping" and papering a favorited submissive person. Sort of like a pet. One person taking on the dominant roll and providing care for a well behaved submissive, the other eager to please for praise and status above other submissives such as slaves.

 

Age regression does not make it unique. Actually there's not really anything unique about CG/l because its just like any other aspect if BDSM... It is what you make of it.

 

CG/l dynamics now include a wide variety of differences. Age regression is extremely different from age play, regression being a full return to a previous stage in life that is uncontrollable and often indicates trauma and is used as a coping mechanism. While regressed the person is incapable of doing things they would in their actual age, the ability is gone and its not a healthy state. Age play however is a controlled state.

 

But,OP, you don't need either to participate in the dynamic. Since people will tell you that you need age play or a little age or rules... You actually don't need any of that. You don't need toys and pacifiers and diapers or someone telling you your a middle or just flat out dont belong because you don't like to play like a child...

 

You do what feels good to you and let the small minds worry themselves sick about maintaining a superficial image of what places like tumblr tell them they should be.
