Infantilism

Infantilism (paraphilic) is a psychological condition experienced by those whose level of physical maturity has progressed beyond the life-stage of infancy. The defining aspect of this condition is a profound sense of well-being or of a great pleasure that becomes associated with various infantile objects and/ or infantile roleplaying. Infantilists most likely fall in one of two groups: Adult Baby (AB,) and Diaper Lover (DL.) Adult Babies between the ages of 12 and 20 may also label themselves Teen Babies (TBs.) But, while ABs and DLs tend to associate with each other, (forming a collective group known as "ABDLs,") it would be accurate to state that DLs are not necessarily infantilists. The distinction is made that while there is a sexual component to wearing a diaper for a DL, the diaper is not always seen as a symbol of regressing to an infantile state.
