AB/DL Survey #2 Part 0 Results

Edit 14 December 2016: These results have been updated per the tenth year standards update.

Part zero of the survey covered some basics, such as the optional nickname (Q1) and email address (Q2), as well as information that would be used to interpret the rest of the survey results.

Edit 15 May 2019: Responses to Q1 and Q2, initially kept confidential, were later deleted to fully anonymize the results.

3)Do you consider yourself to be:

A number of participants that selected 'other' filled in the blank. Commonly, these responses inserted extra aspects, including but not limited to incontinence, caregiving, furriness, and tantric meditation. Some of these aspects were covered later in the survey. For example, Part two explored masochism and furriness, and incontinence was the subject of Q32 and Q33, in part three.

Responses for "other" included:

• Ageplay and/or...
  • "D/L adult kid, older than a baby or toddler. 4-6 years old"
  • "Kidult"
  • "Non-AB/DL ageplayer who sometimes ventures into one and/or the other"
• Babyfurs
  • "Babyfur"
  • "Teen puppy-boy/wild boy in nappies"
• Incontinence
  • "AB that medically needs diapers and has since the age of 5"
  • "Bedwetter diaper lover that likes baby stuff but I don't act like A baby"
  • "Incontinent AB"
• Little Girls (LGs), Sissies
  • "DL and LG as well as sometimes a sissy slut"
  • "LittleGirl, likes diaper play within a scene only."
  • "Sissy Baby"
  • "Sissy crossdresser wearing plastic pants"
  • "Sissy DL"
• Specific AB/DL-ish
  • "AB but I don't role play. I'm a baby so that's how I act"
  • "Adult Toddler"
  • "AT/DL (feel very strongly I'm older than a baby, but still in diapers)"
  • "Diaper sub"
  • "DL but AB curious<"/li>
• Switches, AB/DL caregivers
  • "A daddy who wears"
  • "AB/Baby Fur/occasional 'mommy'"
  • "AB/DL/daddy/BDSM enthusiast"
  • "Caregiver but sometimes DL"
  • "Mostly DL, sometimes a Little Girl, predominantly a Mommy"
• Equally DL and something that isn't quite AB, but close. Less focused on "playing baby" and more focused on just letting whatever is inside come to the surface, whether that's big or little or canine or human or a little of all four.
• I wear diapers and plastic pants and engage in AB ageplay activities when I practice Tantric meditation on the mother/child principle. I don't consider myself to be either an AB or DL, and I have some pretty fundamental objections to the "paraphilic infantilism, diaper fetishism, and related interests" lens that you use in your analysis. In the spirit of this survey I will assume an AB perspective in answering the remaining questions.

To respond to comment about lenses; a particular focus in surveys is inescapable. Due to length, not every possible question could be included. Selecting the questions that are expected to be the most informative involves some assumptions. This selection then affects the information available for statistical analysis. Fill-in-the-blank opportunities give the participants a direct voice. Thanks for speaking up.

4)Are you...(Please only include gender preference as an adult. Gender preference when roleplaying as a baby or child will be explored later.)

• "Biologically female but genderfluid"
• "Hermaphrodite"
• "Intersexed"
• "Lesbian transsexual"
• "None"
