Dear oneironauts, someone has to speak about this. I'll make it as safe for work as possible.
It's no secret, I'm sure everyone tried it (or at least want to try it).
When you're in a lucid dream and an attractive dream character shows up, you sometimes think 'oh, nobody is watching and nobody will ever know - let's do a bit 🐷'
A friend of mine (erm...) does this regularly and he wonders: is it possible to... You know... Get a... 🔥⚡You know what I mean.
We all know the feeling and why should it not be possible to model this in a dream.
The friend of mine tried it several times but did not have any success.
He wonders if it is possible,how to do it (of course you will not need a physical stimulus like in real life) and how it feels (less, same or more than irl).
Anyone tried it and had success?

Okay, the thing is, what I actually want to know / research is the following:
Let's say you're in a LD and want to taste/eat an egg. Do you always need to first look for an egg, then put this dream egg into your dream mouth to taste it?
Or could you simply think "I have an egg in my mouth" or "I want the taste of an egg in my mouth" to do so, in no time without the steps you have to take in waking life first.
I hope you know what I mean.
So, back to my first post, if you want to experience a ⚡ do you first have to do 🐷 or couldn't you simply want to have a ⚡ and have one instantly.
Same is for everything else when it comes to taste, smell, bodily sensations etc.
So it's not about the 🐷 topic directly but more about the way of experiencing something in a LD.
What is everyone's experience?
Ah, did not know about spoiler text. Edited my last comment!
Yes, I want to keep it absolutely clean of course. Somehow this topic became relevant in my latest LDs.
Please feel free to delete or edit this post if you want to! I could absolutely understand 🙂🙃
Hi all, just a reminder that as popular as this topic is, if it is to be discussed please keep things clean (and well censored as above). Remember this site is available to anyone with an internet connection. You can also use spoiler text like I'm doing here. as long as it is prefixed with a warning and still doesn't get offensive.
Thanks, @Saffrinian 1 🙂
I thought I read Are You Dreaming carefully but it seems I missed it.
Well, there are some things I'd really like to explore. Not only if it's possible to have an org***m but also if the brain can model to be drunk (maybe after drinking a beer in a lucid dream) or similar, maybe more unusual things.
Well, I can point you to most of the literature on Lucid dreaming that discusses this topic, there are references to this is Are You Dreaming, Exploring The World of Lucid Dreaming, and Understanding Dreams (by Keith Hearne). Short answer: based on those sources, yes it is possible. At least, based on the anecdotes found in these books, that is.
