Fantasies are just that, fantasy. Psychology seems to still have this fetish for thinking sexual fantasies are somehow more important to your orientation etc and have more relevance than any other fantasy or dream, but I don't think this is as true as is billed as such.

right, i think i was just hung up on the fact that porn is kind of in between, as watching it is kind of an action (is this a misconception, or am i right here? cause real people are involved in porn movies i think is my reasoning) whereas fantasy is entirely in your head.

Sure, but even in porn they are probably claiming to be bro/sis or whatever, but in reality not related at all.

i guess. was mostly talking about the thing where when i was younger a model looked like an older version of my sister, cause in my head that meant that at that time maybe i was seriously sexually attracted to her or something.

Yup. You get it now though, and now know to use logic to combat it. Like I said try not to think on past thoughts or they could warp into more than they are.

so wait porn is just fantasy made visible? im having trouble kind of thinking about this one in a logical way.

Basically put, yes.

Taboo porn themes are typically considered "hotter" because well they are forbidden / taboo to begin with.

There's also the saying that porn is porn and it can morph tastes.
