The differences between fantasies and desires. Yes. So I like to differentiate them in this way. Fantasies are things that you think about that turn you on or pique your curiosity.

And this is another area where I think people really get themselves in trouble. They're like, I have this thing that I think about. It turns me on, but I do not want to do it in real life. And like, what's wrong with me? People don't realize that that is so normal. Oh, yeah.
