Curing the submissive gene
A couple of days ago, I was browsing D/s related topics online and I came across the term usage of DSR. One would think that in learning that DSR stands for Dominate Submissive Relationship that there would follow a whole slew of information about D/s in the lifestyle but that was not the case. DSR is a scientific term used in the study of lab animals while developing new medications to cure mental disorders.
The scientific community feels that being dominate is a positive human trait while being submissive is not. They align being submissive alongside depression as a personality disorder that needs to be cured. One way in which they want to cure the “submissive gene” is through medication and what better way to develop a human medication directed at manipulating our brains than through the old standard of lab mice using only one form of basic testing.
The basic test is called the Water Test. What they do is take five mice and place them in a cage with a short supply of water. The naturally dominant mice go after the water until one dominant mouse is the only one in control of the water. The remaining mice who did not attempt to challenge the dominant are labeled as naturally submissive as they chose to defer to the dominant mouse in lieu of taking life preserving water. The dominant mice that lost out to the one victorious dominant mouse are placed back into general groupings of five to test how many can persevere and gain water supremacy.
The basic testing concept is simple enough. Basic animal instincts for survival and all that and it is not behavior that is surprising at all. However, while holding onto a misguided ideal that humans are somehow superior to the rest of the planets animals the scientific community feels that humans should not hold back their survival instinct to defer to a dominant but rather that we should all be dominant. Having all humans be dominant makes no sense to me because our societal structure certainly does not support that ideal.
The goal is to use the DSR behavioral model in developing medication to make the human “submissive gene” controllable. The medications developed are advertised and prescribed not as anti-submissive medication but as anti-depressants. Yet another reason to do more research into something when your regular doctor just wants to write you a script. Also, I will admit into being a tad angry in learning that my natural mental state is seen as a mental disorder and not only that but due to the way that I am the scientific community decrees that I’m just really depressed and need to be fixed in some way. My DaddyDom is the only cure that I need and I am the one who choses that, not some doctor who deems me socially inept for being submissive.

If you can convince someone they are sick you can sell them snake oil and they won’t care. Its a modern and medicated society where any emotion that is not blissful happiness needs to be eradicated.
