I have been reading Stephen Laberge's book Exploring the World of Lucid Dreaming and he has a section in the beginning about the affects of sex in dreams on the "real" world. During sex in dreams, both male and female experience real world reactions similar to the coordination of REM in the dream and the real world. Both will have a higher rate of breathing, but contrary to what one would expect, your heart rate will not increase. Men will experience an erection, and women will experience a flexing of sorts of vaginal muscles. They did an experiment with a woman where they had something that measured the amount of vaginal pulse amplitude (wtf?). She signaled with her eyes while she was having an orgasm and this is when her breating rate and vaginal pulse amplitude were at their highest. Apparently, sex in a lucid dream can have some very real affects. |
