Being us and how we may be seen

We're going through the end of one cold spell with snow and ice which always makes me feel young although it has been difficult for me to get around on foot.

The extent to which and to what those of us who do dress and may be feel more like a boy are regarded in society is at one level a personal thing.

For some it is little more than a sense of re-enactment wearing the attire, typically a school uniform that connects with your boyhood past where you might explore or otherwise 'play' scenes from your past gaining enjoyment from doing just that.

For others such as myself there is a strong sense of "the eternal boy" in many respects emotionally and mentally in a boys mindset that even if you took away that uniform, would still be there.

With me it also links to having a disability where I am permanently child-like having the development of an actual child which is fixed and is therefore not something that one could switch off from.

Everything for me stems from that child's mind in a adults physical body so it isn't 'pure' regression with a point you enter into it and can exit and even less can it be considered age playing where for some brief and specified period I 'become' that boy and then go into full adulthood.

I always am it.

I generally prefer to call myself an Adult Little Boy as that is just it with nothing involving being 'little' with any kind of sexual relationship or bdsm connections.

Actually it is quite fine to be coming from things from whatever angle actually applies to you.

Sometimes people do wonder about how being the way we are may be seen and clearly nothing within what we are about is connected with child sexuality, we know the law sees us as 'adults' and therefore any and all contact and feelings towards children in that respect cannot be right. 

As an individual you may only have any close contact with any child you are personally responsible for as its parent or through approved procedures any youth organization and similar.

Some may take such concern to cover anything such as being seen to have an image that might include *anyone* under 21 at the time of being taken including yourself, any kind of memorial or statue that may be connected to or in the image of a child however small in it even if no actual child is present.

Nobody would criticize such an intent to protect our image although I do not accept that that in order to protect our image we need to go to such an attempts simply because such images are often in the hands of people such as parents, organizations going back many generations as family and social history and that this I feel is not a sign of an having an unsavoury interest in children having worked in child protection professionally.

Clearly in the digital age the use of images needs to be considered and covers not just any image manipulation but also of context such as  sexualized commentary and categorizing  which it goes without saying I don't allow at my place.
