AMAZING Facts About Dreams!

What you didn’t know about your dreams! In this video you’ll find out the strangest facts about dreams including nightmares and lucid dreaming and all the other dream facts you didn’t know!


9. Gendered Dreams

They say men are from Mars and women are from Venus, and while this phrase may not be factually accurate, there is certainly a world of difference between the dreams of these two genders. While men tend to dream of aggressive, physical subject matter, women are more likely to dream of conversations and themes of exclusion and rejection. Studies show that women’s dreams include many more references to clothing than men, who have a much higher probability of dreaming about weapons than their female counterparts. Even the genders of characters throughout your dreams can shift depending on your own gender. Males are more likely to see other men while women maintain a more even split throughout their dreams. Women actually see more characters in their dreams than men do in general! They also have slightly longer dreams on average. These differences in dreaming are simply statistical, however, and don’t include all men and women in their generalizations. Thus, it’s still perfectly normal for a woman to dream of wielding a katana and a man to visualize a lengthy conversation at the shoe store!

8. REM Paralysis

During rapid eye movement, or REM, people experience a deep state of sleep in which the voluntary muscles of the body are paralyzed. This depth of slumber only occurs for about 25 % of the sleep cycle, ranging between 90 minutes and 2 hours a night. The motor neurons of the brain lack the stimulation required to use your body during this temporary condition, effectively inducing paralysis. This obviously isn’t an issue while fast asleep. However, sometimes REM can continue once awoken! Throughout this period, the body will remain unable to move while the mind is conscious in a condition known as sleep paralysis. The ordeal can be massively frightening, however after about 10 minutes at most, muscle control should revert to normal according to experts.

I know I’m dreaming but often times I don’t want to wake up at all. And even I’m a girl, I always dream about fantasy and adventure and fighting stuffs like wars or something. Plus, I sometimes dream about events that I know deep inside already happened and that I alreay know what’ll happen next.

I literally remember my dreams. One from when I was 5.

[leonarseneau]

I had a dream that I was in school and it was lunch time. I was sitting down and I saw there was a cat that is getting cooked alive! They served us the cooked cat, but the only problem was... It was one of my cats! I started crying and everyone just ignored me because they didn't know it was my cat that was being served to them! They didn't even know I had a cat! And soon after, my cat died. Then he was cremated. I think they both shared a similarity with each other. Cooked alive and cremated are kind of similar.

I remember dreams from time to time. I can even recall them in great detail.

I had a dream that I had a lot of money in a suitcase but in my dream I know it was a dream and I know I'm going to wake up but I hold on the suitcase tight as I could just to wake up broke LOL😂😂😂

[KittySnicker]

I actually have laid back down and continued my dream. Guess that’s weird. I’ve also sleep texted. Also I hope I NEVER get sleep paralysis.

[uvrays]

I always dream that I'm running late and can never actually reach my appointment/destination. I think I've had one of those lucid dreams or dreams when you know you're dreaming.

[RosePocahontas]

I always knew dreams meant something..it’s Never random!

I once dreamy I was in a house floating in the sky, built out of hotdogs instead of wood, and there was a talking couch.... I was talking in it and I remember i was literally saying blibberish instead of words... I was like "BlahBlubaBlah! Hehubablubab! Lubabuhabulabu!" Lol... It was so funny now that i think of it. I think the oldest dream i remember was pretty much the first thing I can remember... I remember all the way back until I was about 3 years old... I remember being asleep, and dreaming about a big bowl of macaroni and cheese (I had mac the next day), then i remember waking up and being able to speak english and talk and run around... Anything before that is empty... its kinda creepy.

The oldest dream I can remember from age 7 or earlier involved a turtle. The entire dream was in color green. That's all I remember. It's meaning I don't know. I am almost 70 years old.

I had a dream one time that I was speaking fluent Spanish. I woke up and realized I had fell asleep on the TV remote and turned the channel to a Spanish channel.

[kusaguma]

hhmm.. I think when I saw something similar happened in my dreams I can guess what comes next and it really happens. that is why I passed lots of my subjects cuz of it also failed lots cuz of it, if I happened to dream of failing lol. Why struggle if you have seen what will happen right?? Just play with your friends to savor happy life lol

[kusaguma]

I also dreamed something similar when I was young., i dont know why but I still remember it as if it really happened, why is that?? is it not weird to experience the exact dreams multiple times??

[sjemccabe]

Well, last night a part of my dream was that Casper's 3 uncle's were MY uncles. 🤷‍♀️ (seemingly confused and forgetting they have a nephew)

[MrTaff]

What about s dream of flying and then realizing you cant fly and falling hitting all the branches on the way down . And # 2 big time always meaningless though just places I've never been people I haven't met yet conversations that are meaningless. Not published basic meaningless conversation unimportant having nothing to do with anything with people I haven't even met yet in places I've never been .
