Diaper Fetishism - Diapers in Paraphilias

Diapers in Paraphilias

Those with diaper-related paraphilias differ widely in their focus of attention. There is no singular or archetypical behavior; therefore, a wide range of thought patterns and behaviors exist, but all tends to be a harmless and efficatious release from some kind of pressure.

While wearing diapers, a diaper fetishist generally experiences a comforting feeling of being intimately cared for. This tends to produce a sense of being set free from social or job-related pressures, or from personal responsibilities, as it offers an easy escape into the simplicity of how they imagine a child might feel. Regression fantasies are fairly common and can be of any age, from new-born, to toddlers, to teenagers. While in such an intentionally induced state of regression, the 'normal' persona is voluntarily and temporarily relinquished, in a fantasized 'exchange' for the innocent state of helplessness. It is important to know that while some may at times go so far as to act indistinguishably from a baby, they do, in reality, never lose control but voluntarily (and temporarily) relinquish it. For other diaper fetishists, simply wearing a diaper, the bulking feeling and crinkling sounds associated with it, is enough to cause the fetishist a form of erotic pleasure or sexual arousal.

However, most practice their diaper fantasies (i.e. the wearing of diapers) in a way that would probably not be noticed by passersby on the street. Some diaper wearers wear their diapers for limited amounts of time, while others prefer to wear them on a 24-hour, seven-day schedule.

Some are aroused from "wetting" (Urination) their diapers, or, to a lesser extent, "messing" (defecation) in the diapers. Some do not use the diapers at all, for arousal, or bladder and bowel movements.
