Daddy Dialogues

In this episode, sexologist and psychotherapist Dr. Ethan Haymovitz reviews a 2014 study by Drs. Hawkinson and Zamboni on the how experiences of caregiving in early life influence our erotic and non-erotic experiences of diapers, ageplay, and relationships in vanilla and ABDL contexts.

In this week's episode of Daddy Dialogues, Dr. Ethan Haymovitz discusses the strongest evidence to date that ABDL is often erotically motivated by a need for humiliation, as well as non-erotic needs for safety and security, not pedophilia.

Dr. Ethan Haymovitz discusses pioneering dissertation research from 2017 on ABDL mental health by Dr. Rhoda Lipscomb, aka "The Diaper Doctor".

In this episode of Daddy Dialogues, Dr. Ethan Haymovitz recaps the focus of Season 3: courage.

This episode celebrates the progress the ABDL community has made in terms of visibility and acceptance, underscoring the importance of shared stories and collective understanding.

Dr. Haymovitz encourages listeners to reflect on this journey, acknowledging the courage it takes to embrace one's identity and to contribute to a supportive and affirming community. Through thoughtful dialogue, he aims to inspire continued growth and advocacy within the ABDL movement.

Join sexologist Dr. Ethan Haymovitz and his ex-husband who is a BFF and best advocate and ABDL ally, as well as, notably, a die-hard Daddy Dialogues fan from the beginning, in a conversation about the meaning of love among friends, couples, and ABDLs.

What does LGBT pride mean, historically, and what does this mean for ABDL pride?

In this episode, we introduce the ABDL Pride Flag and read the wildly popular children's book, "Harvey Milk and the Rainbow Pride Flag", by Rob Sanders, with cohost Alexa Alvarado and very special guest Galen!

Daryl Bem coined the term "Exotic Becomes Erotic" (EBE) to describe his historic social developmental theory of sexual orientation in 1997, which, controversial at the time, is not without its challenges today.

Still, EBE theory holds promise for explaining the processes by which diapers and ABDL-related ageplay may become eroticized in early infancy, late childhood, and early adolecence.

Together, developmental psychologist Dr. Richard Sprott of TASHRA, social psychologist Dr. Jennifer Bosson of USF, and your host, ABDL sexologist, Dr. Ethan Haymovitz reimagine how EBE may explain what we have come to understand as Adult Baby and Diaper Lover behaviors, identities, and eroticism and romantic relationships in adulthood.
