Age play is an umbrella term for sexual and non-sexual practices, often linked to BDSM, which use performative age positions as a central component, in a sexual role play or as an integrated part of everyday identity. Working within the theoretical field of queer temporality studies, I explore how age play can challenge normative conceptions of temporal progression.
