On Ep 111 we speak with ageplay expert, Paul Ruloff. Paul breaks down the different types of ageplay and the misconceptions about them. We explore the psychological motivation behind being a little– which is surprisingly less about emulating a juvenile and more about creating a reality free from adult pressures and responsibilities. He highlights the differences between non-sexual and sexual ageplayers plus addresses the judgment they face in the BDSM community. Learn about the phenomenon of the ‘shrinking childhood’ and how it contributes to the surging popularity of age roleplay, why the role of a ‘big’ (like a Mommy Domme or Daddy) is appealing, what ‘forced age regression’ entails, how to play publicly without involving others in your kink non-consensually, why age play can be therapeutic, and more.
