Thread: Who or what should we blame for the lack of lucidity ?

I have met one person that LDs outside of DV, I think he is on the edge of consistent too. I have talked to like 40 people about LDing, and he was the only one that knew of it. How many people do you know that LD steph? Because like sageous, I dont meet many LDers. If 1/5 were LDers I would have met more. I mean, look at the amount of people on this site, the biggest LDing forum online. Compare to the biggest forum of anything else. Take guns or anything like that, and I think that less than 1/5 is a gun lover.

I agree, I honestly almost think it's a bit annoying when dream researchers throw out unrealistic numbers like "only 17% experience lucid dreams at least once per month", almost as if 17% is a low number - and even that sounds heavily exaggerated.

They must be based on the entire world population, including the most spiritual countries in the East.
Other than that, I would say that the number of Western lucid dreamers are closer to 1.7% or something.
In any case, it's definitely not 17%, at least not in number of consistent lucid dreaming enthusiasts.
