Males dream more often of males than females do. This sex difference was found in 29 comparisons of male and female dreams. It holds for children, adolescents, college students, and adults in all parts of the world; and for dreams collected in the laboratory, as well as dreams reported under nonlaboratory conditions. Various explanations for this ubiquitous sex difference are discussed.
