"I recently had a dream this! .." Most often this phrase we hear from women. And it is followed by the story of a dream that resembles a film, which is an amazing mix of genres: thriller, a detective with chases, mysticism, horror and romance - Here they are - women's dreams. And the men? If you ask a man what he had dreamed, he says he does not remember, or tell what he had dreamed, he wanted to buy the print cartridge, and the seller asked him to wait five minutes. Very exciting. Maybe sometimes men see such dreams, which are just shy to tell someone, but experts say that usually it is really nothing to talk about their dreams: women see a much more emotional and surreal dreams, and they often have nightmares.

Scientists suggest that the reason for this may be hormonal changes in a woman's body. So, it is noted that the most emotional and nightmares women see just before menstruation.

And, of course, the more vivid dreams are, the more likely that people will remember them. In addition, surveys have shown that while the day more men women think about sex, and that, and another sex dream with the same frequency.
