Hi everyone my name is Dede and I have a question... obviously

I've just recently started to learn and understand more about the cgl community and I really want to be apart of it. My question I guess is how do I know if this is just curiosity or if I actually want to be a little? I do love things like watching shows targeted to children and I love plushies and toys but is that enough to be considered a little or is that just me being childish? I don't think I've ever regressed actually.

Hey Dede!
I'm also really new and had/have similar questions. I wasn't sure how to make that decision on whether I was a little or just liked more "childish" things.
I think you'll find that, like I was told, people will encourage you to find that out for yourself and use whatever label feels right! Nobody can really tell us yes or no, unfortunately, though I'd really prefer it that way. But it seems like it's just whatever you're comfortable doing, and don't feel pressured to pick a label for anything right away. I haven't fully regressed, but not everyone does. This community has been really welcoming for me, and I'm sure it will be for you even if you don't know where you stand yet. Good luck!

@dede
thank you for this. I have been wondering the same thing. I discovered the community more than a year ago. I think I’m a Little but I one have a safe place to regress. This post was it helpful and encouraging.
