Adult Babies (ABs) experience joy in returning to a state of infantile bliss, a time when the pleasures of life included being fed, comforted, diapered and loved. ABs yearn for caretaking, but may also seek out punishment. Most ABs enjoy wearing diapers and some wet or “mess” them in order to feel the warm damp sensation in their groins. Some also enjoy forms of bondage and penetration that are true to the baby experience, including being strapped into chairs, “forced” to use pacifiers, and having their temperatures taken rectally. Sexual release, if and when it happens, is usually achieved manually.
