Firecracker Diaries - A combination of stories, random thoughts and an appreciation log of life with Daddy

Jack in the box -
I had a relationship in the past - she called me Daddy and I called her baby girl.
I was the boss . . . Because she said I could be. ?

OraclePollon​(sub female)​{NotYours} - In my dynamic, there is still room for role play. Which is what age play would be, because we don't live this as a lifestyle ( not that I think anyone would... or does.. but I am likely wrong in at least 1 case...) this particular one wouldn't be on the table for us particularly, but others, primal, cops and robbers, rape play, all things we don't live. I guess I consider our dynamic as vanilla, in essence of it is natural, and just what we do, though when compared to vanilla, we are far far from it. I am in a 24/7 though, so maybe those that only do bedroom BDSM, they could change up the scene every time and be something different, I might call that playing roles, but each their own.

HGB​(sub female)​{Scottish M} - I've not hear of it a daddy daughter. More a parental caregiver younger than actual age. It goes Mommy little boy too and any form of all also.

OraclePollon​(sub female)​{NotYours} - True, I always considered age play just a large difference in age (or role playing such) maybe my definition is off. Like "young naive stripper working to pay her college rent and the almost retired CEO" ? though everything else still stands, some people live that life with age gaps of like 30 years. Maybe that is their "vanilla" and they role play other things ❤

TheAnt​(dom male) - I have never thought of DDlg as “young naive stripper working to pay her college rent and the almost retired CEO”. I laughed my butt off and then said... “wait, what? Maybe?? “. I guess from done it might be but imagine the initials of this Dynamic- “TARC/ynswtphcr” wayyyy to complicated.

Literate Lycan​(dom male) - Age Play is not the same as DD/lg.

Age Play can be Principle - High School Cheerleader; or any combination of older more mature person and younger more naive person. It is playing a role dealing with being different ages. I’ve never done Age Play so I don’t know the typical set up, but I haven’t heard of it being Daddy Daughter.

DD/lg in my experience and those I’ve talked to, isn’t about sex. That’s also not role playing. The little is going into little space. And the DD protects them.

TheAnt​(dom male) - Very great point. There also is the CGl which has no sexual element to it all which is a part of the DDlg dynamics. Age play is considered as part of DDlg because of a perceived age of the sub as a little. You are correct on saying it is not a sexual thing in itself and as a matter of fact when the sub is in little sub space there is no sexual attraction but instead exactly what you state, a protective figure.

TheAnt​(dom male) - Firecracker, I think I would be remiss to not chime in. This topic is very dear to my heart. I do not see my little as my daughter. Littles are subs that wish to participate in a mindset that encourages them to take very little responsibilities for their actions. They seek to feel the comfort of the Daddy (or Mommy or CareGiver/uncle-non-sexual) appreciating everything they do from eating habits, to drawing to singing and dancing. These littles in turn shower the Daddy role with admiration and appreciation. It is a wonderful feeling to be cared for by such a care-free spirit. I don't see it a s play. I take the position very seriously and with a lot of pride when a sub calls me Daddy.

Firecracker​(sub female)​{Collared} - What you described is how we live our lives and is how I interpret. But not as roles....this is us. But the definition threw me....I’m glad to read the real definitions.

Lexxa​(sub female) - Age play is quite literally exactly what the name implies - playing ages lol. It isn't limited to any set cookie cutter dynamic (in fact age play often exists outside of any dynamic at all) and the variances you find in age player groups is vast. It's more common to encounter those who play younger ages (ABDL, littles, middles, etc) but there are also those who play older ages too. There are a few in my local community known as "geris" since their age play involves aging themselves up to be geriatric haha. When dynamics do get involved, they are just as varied as the players themselves. Daddy/daughter, Mommy/son, Daddy Dom/little girl, Mommy Domme/little boy, Daddy Dom/little boy, Mommy Domme/little girl, Teacher/student, King/princess. Queen/prince, Uncle/niece, Sister/brother, Babysitter/baby girl, etc - the options are endless. Age play alone is inherently non-sexual. Strictly age play only dynamics often involve more of a caretaker/care receiver type give and take but not always. Dark age play is where the taboo/sexual themes come into play.

All of this info is from age play classes and workshops I've attended, my own personal experience as an age player amongst other age players in my local scene and a class on dark age play instructed by Bri Burning the Northwest Person of Leather 2019 and the International Person of Leather 2020. I highly recommend her classes for anyone interested in age play and/or dark age play.

Bunnie - Awesome explanation, thank you.

OraclePollon​(sub female)​{NotYours} - You forgot, ageless vampire and timeless faerie (who can act like children) ... and yes, I am being serious.

Lexxa​(sub female) - As stated "the variances you find in age player groups is vast" lol. It would be impossible to list them all here because there are likely infinite options and combinations out there! It's such a beautifully diverse group. ❤️
