Sadie:
Sweetie, it’s your life, and you’re allowed to live it however you want. Assuming that everything is SSC (safe, sane, consensual), then there’s no ‘one right way’ to live this lifestyle…everyone has their own likes, dislikes, and take on what this lifestyle is to them, whether is sexual, nonsexual, 24/7, only on the weekends, or whether they wear diapers or not, use pacifiers or not, collect stuffies, or not…the choices are endless, and completely up to you. If you’re Little, then you’re Little, and there’s no set of prerequisites that you have to complete first.
And you’re not exactly alone in your feelings…even with the word ‘kink’ involved, that doesn’t mean that it has to be inherently sexual for the individual in questions. I’ve met just as many ageplayers who are non-sexual in their headspace as I have who are.
So, TL;DR (since I tend to ramble, lol), you do you. 🙂 You’re gonna find your own little niche as you go forward in life, and some things may change while others don’t, but yes, you’re always ‘allowed’ to do your own thing. 🙂
Hope this helps!
