Fancy Fantasy

Sexual fantasies must be spontaneous*, have a status-shift*, and involve non-intimate personas*.

They lurk in the silent shadows of the human psyche. They are fleeting, alien, and immensely powerful. Like everything, they can be explained with science.

When we’re outside of our comfort zone, acute stress responses kick in. Cortisol floods the bloodstream and brain, releasing energy and heightening sensation. A fantasy uses unreality* to create this. Then combine with sex; you feel unsafe and energetic as if running from a predator, yet aroused and reckless.

Two primal urges combine: survival and reproduction; and the result is perceptual nirvana.
