Do dreams mean anything in terms of sexuality or attraction?

It depends.

Try to think of a similar situation in real life. Would you enjoy making out with a male in real life? How about a girl?

 

There is no evidence dreams have any tangible meaning whatsoever.

They can, however, get you to think of things and situations you otherwise wouldn't think of. But you need to base your feelings on how you feel when you are consciously thinking about it, not what you unconsciously dream about. If you don't like the idea in real life, then obviously you should base your sexuality on that rather than a single random dream.

 

I had a similar thread like this before. I think that dreams do mean something. They are a link to our subconscious mind, and they can show our deep desires. Dreams can be weird and hard to decipher, but I think that they can tell you something about yourself. You may find it weird to think that you like women, but you may feel some attraction for men. I think that your dream may be telling you that you could feel some attraction towards a man, but you want to have an attraction for that woman. If you keep getting dreams like this, then that probably means you like women. You could like both sexes too.

 

You could look up the meaning of your dream figures in a dream symbol dictionary.

 

nay

 

I can't say anything. As long as I can remember my sexual or romantic dreams usually consist another male.

I remember when I was young my friend told me his first wet dream and how that women felt so real. I couldn't say I dreamed about him recently and it felt real as well.

only parts of the contents are given, meaning there are other interpretations possible.

Woman
To see a woman in your dream represents nurturance, passivity, caring nature, and love. It refers to your own female aspects
...

sex
... refers to the integration and merging of contrasting aspects of yourself. It represents psychological completion. You need to be more receptive and incorporate aspects of your dream sex partner into your own character. Consider the nature of the love-making. Was it passionate?...
The sex act parallels aspects of yourself that you wish to express.
...

To see a man in your dream denotes the aspect of yourself that is assertive, rational, aggressive, and/or competitive. Perhaps you need to incorporate these aspects into your own character.

If dreams would mean absolutely nothing there would not be scores of people putting together dream dictionarys.

 

I had a dream where I was enjoying sex with men,and I'm still lesbian.
I say no

 

What is your opinion on the posting above yours ?

Which has nothing to do with your sexual orientation...

 

I think it depends. The dreams are projections of what you think about in your subconscious (which aren't always literal), so if you're thinking about kissing a man, it could mean many different things, but all that is certain is that men are on your mind. All the dream means is that you're thinking about men subconsciously, but whether it's telling you that you have attraction to them or not, the dream can't tell you that.

 

Its not, your subconscious works in pictures. It might be just a symbol.
It might mean things like activity, etc.

 

This is interesting to me, as most sexual dreams I've had ever sense puberty have started out with a man as the subject but as soon as I touch them in my dream, the man is no longer a man but a woman. I've been with several men sexually and never enjoyed sex but just recently had my first experience with a woman and it was amazing and opened my eyes to the fact tht I prefer women sexually (and romantically). I thought of all those dreams and wondered if it was my subconscious telling me that all along.

 

I don't think it always does, I mean I've had dreams where I had sex with family members and I woke up being all 'gross, why would I think that?!' I think the subconscious mind is weird sometimes

 

Probably not...

 

I often have what a former roommate termed "obvious metaphor" dreams. I recently had a dream where I was getting married to this guy, and freaking out, and contemplating climbing out the window to run away, and trying to decide if I should tell people I was calling the wedding off, or if I should just take off without a word. I ended up being confronted by my father, who said "It's because you're gay, isn't it?!" and my mother, who was upset, unhappy, but understanding. They let me past them and I tried to get away but the groom's family tried to catch me in some kind of netting saying they needed to "save me" from the devil. Fortunately one of them let me go, though, and I was off!

To me, this is an "obvious metaphor" for my anxieties about coming out to family, which I know I have had in abundance.

Thing is, sometimes I also get dreams where I'm climbing around weird architecture, or searching for my cat, or I've adopted a crocodile or something. And I don't have any plans to adopt a crocodile anytime soon, that's for sure.

My point being, only you can determine if what your dream "told" you is meaningful or not. Obviously it gives some insight into the fact that you're questioning. If you consider what "dream you" decided about yourself in the dream do you agree with her? Disagree?

As far as dream symbology, I find it can be fun but I think it's sort of like astrology, it's just a "one size fits all" approach that may or may not apply to you and people who believe in that stuff firmly often grasp at what's right and ignore what isn't. (Or, it's vague enough that it could apply to anyone). A woman in my dream may mean something drastically different from a woman in yours, as might a cat, or a baseball bat, or whatever else.

 

I think what happened in your dream could mean different things depending on what you were thinking about recently. I know personally that my dreams can be really strange or really obvious depending on what happened during the day, and sometimes obvious dreams aren't really so obvious. Of course they sometimes are. I don't trust dream dictionaries myself, although somethings can be accurate.
