Hello All,

Brand new to the forum. Love it! I've been looking for a good active forum for awhile now.

Anyway, I had a question about lucid dreaming and sex and I was hoping to get a little insight.

About two nights ago, I became lucid in my dream for the first time in about five months. Lucidity is something I barely achieved for the first time about a year ago. Since then, I've had maybe four lucid dreams - some more intense than others. This particular one is the best one I've had so far.

But for some reason, even though I know I'm dreaming and can do whatever I want, my mind always turns to sex and seeking out a sexual encounter with somebody. I don't really get this. It's almost like I'm not lucid. Like my cursed female libido is out of control.

Does anybody have any info on this or is this typical for a lot of people? I want to get to the point where I can become lucid and decide, "Eh, I'll have sex with my boyfriend when I wake up. How about going to the moon instead?"

Is this perhaps because I'm new to lucid dreaming? I've heard that most people opt to fly when they become lucid. Maybe this is just my "default lucid action" if you know what I mean?
