Overview

How does indulging in the Adult Baby Diaper Lover (ABDL) fetish affect the view of those who are being investigated or arrested?

Summary

Age play is one of the many kinks that get very misunderstood by the forensic community. 

Often, when a person is investigated or arrested for some form of child sex crime, particularly internet based crimes, and materials related to diaperism are found, there is an assumption of pedophilia. 

This assumption stems from a misunderstanding of the fetish. This misunderstanding is exacerbated by a dearth of research on the topic.

Overview

How are ABDL role players characterized and mischaracterized by the justice system and forensic professionals?

Summary

Individuals who enjoy Adult Baby/Diaper Lover interactions are not a very well understood group of people and they are often mischaracterized in the forensic world. The interest is sometimes initially conflated with pedophilia or sexual attraction to babies. This assumption clearly demonstrates the lack of knowledge about this sexual interest.

Overview

How could a client’s engagement in kink or fetish play be reflected in the courtroom?

Summary

The forensic community rarely has any idea how to navigate various kinks and fetishes. This is often seen in pre-sentence reports or interactions with probation officers. There is an assumption that out of the box sexuality is deviant or somehow always related to sexual offending. Unfortunately, because individuals in these communities are often stigmatized, there is a lack of research about these sexual interests and the people that engage in these behaviors.
