Sexual Fantasies: Blog Poll

The blog is running a poll of the nature of the most popular and most used sexual fantasies (see right hand column). Please record your votes: it is anonymous.

Fantasies are daydreams, imaginary visions, whimsical speculations or wishful thinking. Everybody fantasises at some level. If you've ever imagined what you'd do if you won the lottery, you have used fantasy. If you have ever looked at someone in the street or at a party and imagined what it would be like to have sex with them: you have used sexual fantasy.

Fantasy is a fundamental part of human nature and a healthy part. We see active imagination as healthy in children, helping them to develop, but often as something that adults should grow out of. Most people never do. Even if we must suppress our sexual imagination during the day, all those unconscious thoughts can emerge while we are sleeping. Sometimes those dreams are pleasant sometimes not so pleasant: sexual or otherwise. Sometimes we can remember our dreams and sometimes we know that we have dreamed but cannot recall them.

This is an intriguing and not so well understood area of sexual behaviour and health. It is also a fun area. So please complete the poll.

On this subject I think it is important to note that by sharing a fantasy or living it, it ceases to be one. Or at least in my own experience it is.

I now closely guard my fantasies as they are the main instigator when I am masturbating.

That is not to say that I didn't want these fantasies to come true or to share with others what they were...all I am saying is that by doing so I some how lost them as stimulation of the mind.
