But it wasn't until government funding came along that sexologists began undertaking "scientific" (i.e. handing out questionnaires to college students) research into what part, and to what extent, fantasy plays a part in our sexuality.
Top Male Sex Fantasies
It's safe to say, since guys spend most of their time trying to figure out how to get sex, and then avoiding the phone afterwards, that a lot of their fantasies are about power. In other words, some of their favorite reveries reflect the desire to skip the perennial smile-and-wink, followed by dinner-and-a-movie, and get straight to the action.
10. Domination/submission. Bondage and sex slave fantasies are popular scenarios. However, since most guys are too lazy to learn how to tie a proper knot, there's little need to worry about coming home to find ropes tied to the bedposts.
9. Harem. This is the one where he's the only male in a room full of willing women. And no, we're not talking about The View.
8. Younger woman/older woman. Yeah, this one's fairly obvious. For some reason guys seem predisposed to feeling an attraction for women out of their age range, whether younger (for breeding) or older (for learning). Blame it on evolution.
7. Orgy. This is one of those fantasies that is probably better left un-acted-upon. Sure, it seems like a good idea at the time but the planning, the etiquette and the ensuing awkwardness cancel out the initial thrill. Uhm, not that we'd know for sure.
6. Watching our girlfriend/spouse with another man. Again, probably best un-acted upon. Just rent Indecent Proposal instead.
5. Forbidden fruit. Having sex with the boss's wife while on the phone with the boss; his girlfriend's sister coming over and catching him in a pair of your high heels -- if it's wrong and morally base, he's probably imagined it at some point.
4. Sex with a stranger. This one always livens up the commute to work.
3. Role-playing/costumes. As clichéd as it sounds, guys do want you to dress up as a nurse/French maid/Princess Leia and not just on Halloween. Sorry.
2. Sex on location. Probably the office would make a lot of guys' number one place, outside of home, to have sex; the aisles of Office Depot, though, would probably be a distant 9th or 10th.
1. Threesome. If you guessed this as the number one male fantasy, give yourself (and your girlfriend) a pat on the back (preferably in front of your boyfriend).
