Little

What it is

A Little is an adult who enjoys slipping into a playful, carefree headspace, usually with a Caregiver. It's a headspace, not an age, and it's about adults only.

What it can look like

Colouring, soft toys, cartoons or cosy clothes. Being looked after and comforted. Letting go of adult worries for a while. For some people it isn't sexual at all.

Often pairs with

Caregiver.

Not the same as

Anything involving real children, ever. And not the same as Boy or Girl, which are younger-feeling roles without the little headspace.

Doing it safely

Agree limits and consent while you're in your adult headspace, before play. Make sure your Caregiver knows how to help you come back out of it.

Talking about it

"Sometimes I like feeling small and looked after. Can I tell you what that's like for me?"
