Do men or women dream more about sex?

Both men and women dream about sex in equal measure, according to the findings of a Canadian study.

About 8 per cent of everyday dream reports from both genders contain some form of sexual-related activity,

The most common type of sexual dream content was sexual intercourse, followed by sexual propositions, kissing, fantasies and masturbation.


  • Both men and women reported experiencing an orgasm in about 4 per cent of their sexual dreams.
  • Women reported that orgasms were experienced by other people who figured in their dreams, in about 4 per cent of their dreams.
  • In contrast, men did not report other characters experiencing orgasms in their dreams.
  • Current or past partners were identified in 20 per cent of women's sexual dreams, compared to 14 per cent for men.
  • Public figures such as movie stars and politicians were twice as likely to be the object of women's sexual dreams, while men were twice as likely to report dreaming of multiple sex partners.
