44 Minutes, Two Models
Report On Restraint Research Project
1) To test the strength of pair-bonding and altruism between friends, I
and my research assistant surreptitiously gained
access to the home of subject A, otherwise known as "Aiden Ashley". She was
restrained to a chair with rope and silenced
with tape. When Subject B, whom we will call "Lily Carter", returned home, we
confronted her with the situation of her
defenseless friend. Lily was presented with this dilemma: she was free to
leave, but if she did so, Aiden could be subjected
to undefined and possibly severe punishment. Somewhat to our surprise, Lily
chose to stay. Conclusion: Pair-bonding
between Aiden and Lily quite strong, as is Lily's altruism.
2) Next, we reversed the variables by placing Lily in jeopardy: she was
to undress, then bound naked to the same
chair and gagged with tape in the same manner as Aiden. When the latter
was presented with the identical dilemma as in 1),
Aiden also refused to abandon her friend. As a result, our conclusion is that
Aiden's emotional connection to her friend
mirrors that of Lily.
3) In order to intensify the challenge to pair-bonding, we required both
subjects to engage in bizarre fetishistic
behavior. With Aiden now nude, silenced and bound hand and foot on a
woden table, we again offered Lily the opportunity to leave the house. If she
did so, Aiden's fate again would be uncertain; if she did not leave, however,
we would order Lily tolick and suck Aiden's bare feet. Once again, Lily's
loyalty to Aiden overcame the natural repugnance she must have felt as she
mouthed Aiden's feet! No change in conclusion reached in 1).
4) In our second reversal of roles, Lily was spreadeagled on the table
before Aiden was presented with the option of
freedom or tickling her friend's nude body. Aiden was warned, that if she left,
Lily was likely to experience a more
rigorous test of her nervous system than tickling. By this point, we were not
surprised that Aiden chose to remain and
tickle Lily quite vigorously. Both girls were soon exhausted; the results
rein conclusions reached in 1), 2) and 3).
5) Because there was no longer a need to test the strength of pair-
bonding and altruism, the final part of our
experiment was structured to investigate the co-operative abilities of our
subjects. Still naked, both Aiden and Ashley were
immobilized to metal chairs in the backyard, where variations in temperature
and noise level from indoors would complicate
the subjects' efforts to free themselves. Lily was partially silenced with cloth
tied between her lips, while Aiden was
blindfolded; we observed as they attempted to communicate and join effots in
escaping their restraints. With some difficulty
and a substantial lapse of time, the subjects finally succeeded. Conclusion:
despite formidable obstacles and a substantial
degree of disorientation, the subjects did manage to co-operate and release
themselves.
I consider this experiment an outstanding success, as does my research
assistant, and would strongly recommend
continuing along this line of research once certain legal complications have
been surmounted!
BONUS SCENE: Although there's no scientific relevance to this scene, we
believe that the sight of Aiden and Lily
struggling naked, hogtied and tape-gagged on top of that wooden table is
justification in itself!
