Weird dreams, help..

[ivionkeybarz]

Well, ever since puberty I've had this reoccurring dream that  I'm a teenage boy and I'm well exploring my anatomy.
I never thought much of it, I figured that I have always been curious I was just having a dream that a normal teenage girl
would have. But, these dreams have become very vivid and I can feel every bit of the experience. Although I'm not sure what these dreams and lately I really want them to be real.

Dreams can hold significant meaning. Sometimes they express your deepest desires. Sometimes, they have no meaning at all. I suppose it is up to you to figure out what they mean. If I like a dream, I say it means something. If I don't like it, I say it doesn't. But that's just me. So... what am I saying? I don't know. Just don't take them too seriously. Enjoy them if you can. Use them for inspiration if it helps you get through the day. But for heaven's sake, don't worry about what they might mean. Now... I'm expressing my opinion, nothing else. Never, never, never take Cindi Jones seriously. My best to you!

I've had many dreams like this too. They used to scare me, prior to coming to terms with who I am. The feeling of 'rightness', not really noticing a difference despite the extreme difference in physical appearance, the desire alone was enough to make me go mad. Now I enjoy them, a freedom from reality and a chance to be myself.

I'm not saying you're a trans* per se, yet. Only you can truly say if you are. And I agree with @Cindi Jones. Dreams are strong messages from your subconscious. Are you having problems at home? Feeling oppressed and unable to take control? Typically women feel 'weaker' to men because they hold more power than the female sex. Are you having boy/girlfriend problems? Often times people find that strong symbols are a manifestation of emotions or problems one is having in real life. Reoccurring dreams usually mean the issue has not been resolved and the brain is still fighting itself to make sense of the dilemma.

I wish you the best of luck
