I'm curious. Is it because lucid dreams are like virtual-reality 3-D video games? |

No dream goals at the moment...just flying and letting stuff happen is kinda fun, and it's hard to motivate myself to try LDing lately.

True...I did get interested in lucid dreaming when I was about 17 myself...but...why males? It sort of surprises me that so many boys would be interested in dreams. I thought psychology in general tended to be more of a girl thing in Western culture, and I count dreaming as psychology. |

Ditto. Intertubes is run by the male teenage community. |

Probably because the younger generations are more comfortable with the internet (let alone joining and participating in a forum) like some people have said. Maybe also because lucid dreaming has a slightly "new age" vibe to it, and older people see it as just another mystical whacko deal... |

I think it is because for lucid dreaming you have to be open minded to the possibilities, and well girls just aren't! |

Asexual is without a sex. Asexual reproduction is the same thing. Cells are asexual and some insects. Humans cannot be asexual, its scientifically impossible. |

What they mean by "asexual," which may not be an official definition of the word yet but they're probably working on it, is people who do not feel sexual attraction to any of their fellow beings beings and desire sex with them. It's in the same vein as homosexual, heterosexual, and bisexual. It's still an overly broad definition, even if it makes sense to use it to describe humans who aren't interested in sex, because they use it to encompass people who are happy masturbating and/or who experience romantic attraction, but just have never wanted anyone "that way" for "that reason." But I do think people exist who have no sex drive, no desire for romantic realtionships, or simply no desire for *sexual* relationships, and are not diseased or do not feel they are diseased as a result of it. I pondered being "asexual" myself, but I don't count myself as such anymore, because the only trait I have is not wanting sex with an actual partner, but I do think I've been sexually attracted to someone before (even if not in many years), and much of my avoidance of sex is out of pure fear. As you might be able to tell if you read my signature or some of my posts, I'm uninhibited in lucid dreams where there are no social or physical consequences. |

Asexual = can't get, won't get. |
