Generally this can involve someone pretending to be younger than they actually are, but more rarely can involve assuming an older role.[1] Variations include incest play, in which individuals recreate and sexualize roles wthin a family,[2] and Daddy's girl fetishism in which real or imagined age differences are the basis of the roleplaying and the female is portrayed as the younger partner.[3]
The practice can regressive, in which the goal is to re-experience childhood, or sexual, recreating a child-adult sexual relationship. Ageplay is not considered to be related to pedophilia by participants.[4]
