When sleeping are you a man or women

[VickiTheGamer]

Hey everyone.
When I sleep, in my dreams I am still male. I go to sleep sometimes thinking about Vicki, hopping that will kind of trigger something, but nope. Still just the male me.
So, I am curious, when asleep, are you a man or women in your dreams?
If a women, did it take long for your dreams to transition?

[Emma Beth]

I have always been a woman in my dreams, when I remember them.

So, my answer to your question "If a women, did it take long for your dreams to transition?". I never had any kind of transition in dreamland.

[sarahcsc]

In my dreams, I am sometimes a man and other times a woman.

However, an overwhelming proportion of my dreams did not pay any attention to my sex/gender. Most of my dreams consist of third person observations of random stuff that makes no sense. Lol.

[Jorja]

I am a Kung Fu Panda in my sleep. Now what the hell does that mean?

Really, I can't answer. I haven't had a dream that I can remember in years. I'm not sure I dream at all.

[Kaitlyn Michele]

i'm still usually dreaming as a man...sometimes as a crossdresser !! i don't have lots of dreams though..

focus more on what's real and what's happening... why hope for a dream as a woman?

[Krisi]

I am usually a male. Most of my crossdressing dreams involve being in a situation where I'm trying to remove and hide my forms.

Having never been an actual female, it's hard to imagine dreaming that I am one.

[Ann Louise]

Post-op most all my dreams are as me, a woman, but from time to time a dream will crop up in which I'm acting out some old thing that happened, or an old place I've been. But the latest phenomena, I'm pleased to report almost five months post op, are erotic dreams of men.

Yum! ^_^

[Jorja]

Details, we want details, Ann!:)

This was the subject of a recent thread. I am sometimes a man, sometimes a woman, sometimes a boy, sometimes a girl. I am sometimes without a body, and my dreams are sometimes strickly POV. I recently dreamed that I was Fred Ward as astronaut Gus Grissom. Dreams are dreams, they don't transition.

[Starling]

...Most of my dreams consist of third person observations of random stuff that makes no sense. Lol.

Same here, except in my dreams I often feel alienated and alone, while I watch people move busily through a world I can't get a handle on. Every once in a while though, I get some sorely needed comic relief.

[Rianna Humble]

Like others, I don't often remember my dreams. From the dribs & drabs that I do recall, I tend to be looking out through my eyes (so I can't see my body) but I get the impression that I am me and not him. To complicate matters, it seems that many of the dreams I do remember upon waking still occur in French.

[karenpayneoregon]

I have for the most part all of my life have been female in my dreams and nothing has changed since GRS.

[jules]

[I Am Paula]

If I dream of recent events, I dream in girl. Dreams about my past are mixed, some girl, some boy.

[PretzelGirl]

I am with Jorja, I don't remember the last time I woke up with a recollection of a dream. I don't know if that says something about the quality of my sleep or not. Maybe I just bore myself.

[Dana44]

I sometime wake up dreaming that I was a girl. Mostly though, I'm male when I dream. Last week I did two nights in a row dreaming I was a girl. Been male ever since, so cannot schedule it. LOL

[Karolyn]

I see all my dreams in the first person. I have never seen myself from outside, and there was no mirrors in my dreams. So I was not a guy, not a girl, I was just me.

But I do remember seeing myself once as a bride when I was young (probably around 15 years old), and I remember wishing I was at her place. Her face was blurry, but I realized recently that it was actually me, it was what I wanted to be in real-life, and not what I was outside of my dreams. Now my dream became true, I am myself, a girl, so I don't dream anymore (I mean, I don't remember any of my dreams).

[Karen62]

In my dreams (and I do remember mine, and on occasion, I get to have a lucid dream), I am me. That's just it. No gender distinction -- just who I am. I remember for the last two years before self-acceptance, therapy, and HRT, I would occasionally dream specifically about being dressed (en femme) in front of people I knew and no one noticed, so I would be surprised but then be very relaxed and happy. Since self-acceptance, therapy and HRT, I don't recall having a dream in which gender, or even clothing, was even part of the dream. It's like dreaming that I have brown eyes (I don't) -- how would I know? I'm just the natural me, and I don't notice (unless I am not, but those are the weirder dreams...).

Tip for lucid dreaming: You can always tell if you are in a dream if you see something written, such as a book, a sign, a poster, a restaurant menu, whatever. Try to focus on it to really read it, then momentarily turn away, and then turn back again. In a dream, the writing is always different, if not simply gone. If you can manage to do that and can notice the difference, then you are on the cusp of taking active control of your dream's activities -- that's lucid dreaming. I can do it, but I find it incredibly hard as it is mentally exhausting for me. But the comparing written text trick always works for me.

[Kris Avery]

I am exactly the same as Karen.

I just dream as me and use the same approaches to turn a "movie" into the ability to reflect upon events in my life running in the dream

[Sandy Too]

When I dream I am always a human been, well sometimes a bird or so, but there is never gender

[Ally 2112]

i had a dream i was dressed as katie perry .I looked in the mirror and had dark mascara and a straight black wig and a poofy blue dress that was dirty for some reason .i woke up and really wondered what the heck ?? .i don't listen to her at all :)

[RADER]

At night I am wearing a baby doll nightie, SO I guess I am a girl, at least dressed
as one; However, I am still a man every where else. (sob)

[JohnH]

When I dream I don't think of myself as man or woman. However, when I wake up I realize I am wearing a nightgown and have a feminine figure with breasts and hips - a wonderful feeling. So I feel like a woman unless I talk to my wife in a voice that sounds very much like Sylvester Stalone.

[Jean 103]

Lately I’m the girl. It is probably because I have acquired a couple of casual boyfriends. If you’re not attracted to men I don’t see this happening for you. I didn’t go looking for romance it just found me at a time I was open to it.
Love Jean

[docrobbysherry]

My dreams r genderless and pretty incoherent. I've always wanted to dream of myself as a female but that ain't happenin'!:sad:

On the plus side? I have had dreams involving crossdressing in the last year. How can that be without gender being involved u ask?

Simple. It's just like when I'm awake. It's all about the clothes!:heehee:

[Brooklyn]

I've always been female in my dreams, although I forget them shortly after waking up. In high school, however, I kept a dream journal for a class assignment, which improved my recollection and revealed my hidden feelings to the teacher. It was causing me such stress that my teacher let me stop the project. About 1-1/2 years ago, I tracked her down via social media, and after she realized who I was, we had a few laughs about the whole incident.

[Sammy777]

As for me, I couldn't tell you with any certainty what I look like as most of my dreams tend to take place in the first person.

Sometimes you dream what you want, other times your mind takes over and a dream can be nothing more then your subconscious working through a problem.

Some times, with practice, yes I said with practice, you can take control of a dream. Even being able to willingly wake yourself up.

Every person in your dreams, whether or not you recognize/remember them is someone you know or have seen before.
Same goes for the location, even if you've only seen it without ever physically being there.
So yes, every actor/actress, every backdrop you have ever seen in a TV show or movie could show up in your dreams.

Not everyone dreams in color, even if they think they do.

Not every dream has sound. (Think about it for minute).

Dreams can last anywhere between a few seconds to 20-30 minutes in length.

Dreams usually only take place shortly before you wake up. Towards the end of the R.E.M cycle.

[Krisi]

I do have the ability to wake myself up from a dream. It's usually after I have fallen off the roof or run over the dog though. If it's unpleasant, I'll wake myself up and go to the bathroom or something and then go back to sleep and dream something different.

[BOBBI G.]

I am woman. Hear me snore.

[Janelle_C]

Most time I'm just in the dream looking out and I can't tell if I'm make or female. Every once in awhile I'm male, which bothers me a little. And some of the time I'm female.

[Teresa Monsivais]

When I dream I dream as a man, the only thing related to cross dressing has been that I am wearing heels in my dream as a male and like real life hiding or not wanting to be seen but it I usually get caught but no one says anything to me. I also seem to be be very careless in hiding them but I do recall feeling nervous in getting caught. I have had these dreams for quite some time.

[Rachel Mari]

Usually I'm just me, there isn't any differation as whether or not I'm male or female.

The dreams that I can tell, I'm usually female.
The most recent dream was about how I was wearing a really short skirt, one that I wouldn't wear, and my concern with what others were seeing, ie the scars on my thighs. It wasn't about them seeing my whole leg but the scars. And nobody cared.

Dreams can be so revealing sometimes and other times just plain "don't know where that came from."
