Short Definition

Detailed Explanation
A lab rat is a kink role for someone who enjoys being the subject of experiments, tests, or playful “research."
In this role, the person takes on the position of the one being observed, studied, or put through controlled trials by a partner playing a scientist, handler, or experimenter. The appeal often comes from giving up control, being curious about what will happen next, and being valued as something interesting to explore rather than someone who directs the scene.
People who enjoy the lab rat role may like:
- Being told what will be tested or tried.
- Following protocols or “procedures.”
- Being monitored, recorded, or evaluated.
- Feeling small, contained, or guided.
For some, being a lab rat is lighthearted and imaginative. For others, it connects to a desire for submission or objectification.
