[23] If homosexuals had only homosexual dreams, as _Naecke_ maintains, the fact would stand as a strong proof against my conception that all men, including the homosexuals, are bisexual. But as a matter of fact genuine homosexuals often have heterosexual dreams if one cares to look into the subject carefully. _Hirschfeld_, through a questionnaire, found that among 100 homosexuals, 13 per cent. dreamed all sorts of heterosexual situations. Analytical investigation of their dream life would lift the 13 per cent. fully to one hundred per cent. The heterosexual dreams are associated with anxiety feelings in many cases. They dream that they are married and find themselves impotent, so that they are confronted with the compulsion of carrying out heterosexual intercourse. We find here one more confirmation of the fact that the dream releases all the excitations repressed from consciousness through the day. [24] Correction of detail after first report of the dream. [25] Cf. Hans Freimark, _Das Sexuelle Moment in der religiösen Exstase_, _Zeitschf. f. Religionsphilosophie_, vol. II, No. 17; also, _Das Hexenproblem_, _Die Neue Generation_, vol. VIII; and _Sexuelle Besessenheit_ ibid., vol. IX. [26] The following statement of _Hans Freimark_ on the _Züchtbarkeit der Homosexualität_ displays excellent insight into human nature: “It does not require much psychology to note that some persons are particularly impressed by and interested in whatever popular belief ascribes as particularly characteristic of homosexuality. Repression against homosexual deeds is in itself almost invincible. But that which is considered the very essence of homosexuality acts apart and frequently does so in a sense far from proper. It is enough to induce young men who have no other claim to distinctions to try to imitate these ‘singular doings’ and they become finally interested in the acts.... Once the pose is assumed, it becomes part of reality, and then contact with the homosexual circle contributes not a little towards strengthening the attitude. Such an influence, naturally, is possible only among young people. But the young are the ones who generally raise the problem at all. It has been assumed that in view of the constancy of the instinct, such a complete shifting from one sex to the opposite is most unlikely. But since all investigators admit a certain period of indifference, and since it is admitted further that during that period the individual may abandon himself to an eroticism contrary to the form adopted finally, the possibility cannot be excluded that weak characters may be turned away from their original developmental goal.” [27] “The flight to homosexuality is the result of repulsing the incest phantasy.” _Nervöse Angstzustände_, 1st ed., 1908, p. 311.
