Hopefully this is an acceptable topic here.

Anyway, here goes:

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Crossdreaming: Willingly (as opposed to someone asking you to do this) imagining yourself as the opposite sex and/or gender (this can be in your daydreams as well).

As for me, Yes, sometimes; I think that this might be a part of the reason why the idea of me eventually getting a sex change (from male to female) has some appeal to me.

I'm usually "me" (or a better version of me ) in my dreams and daydreams.

When i was younger (maybe up to early 20s), i would often be different people in sleeping dreams- a dif gender, dif color hair, etc. Still always "me" in daydreams.

No...but I know I'm jealous of female power...not power over men, but rather that power of grace and calmness commonly described as feminine.

I also like the male power...that dumb, ugly brute smashing through a brick wall type power.

I've always wanted them both.

Not really. I am happy being a woman. My daydreams or fantasies that involve me usually have me personality-changed. Confident, snarky, and lots of men who find me hot. Total opposite of real-life there lol

But that's far as it goes. No gender switches.

No I can't say I ever have. I enjoy being a man. My crotch doesn't bleed for days on end. I'll keep it.

Neither would it if you were a trans-woman, though--correct? If so, then your point here doesn't appear to be valid (considering that a male can crossdream about himself being a trans-female and/or a cis-female).

Men don't find you hot in real life? I am sorry to hear that.

Also, if you want, I myself can try judging your looks.

If you don't mind me asking, what is your gender (in real life, obviously)?

Lots of times in my sleeping dreams I was other people (sometimes different races and sometimes I was the opposite gender) and the people in them were people I didn't know. It was as if the dreams were meant for other people.

My daydreams are just trance-like states with me being a viewer and not being a participating character in them.
