Actually it’s not really a single question. I wouldn’t even say I ever had a dream in which I knew what biological sex I have. But if you have dreams in which you know your biological sex:
Back when my dreams were more vivid, yes I regularly dreamed of my body matching my gender. I remember waking up as a kid and being depressed when I realized that it was a dream. So before, during, and this far (15+ years) into my transition I would say yes. My dreams nowadays are way more nebulous than they used to be, but I do occasionally have dreams where I feel more in line with my body, I don’t remember specifics though just that I feel far more at peace with it.
Yes, from all the way back in elementary school, long before I knew that trans people existed.
Frequently. It was actually one of the signs I ignored for years.

It was actually how I realized I was trans. Had a super vivid dream of being a girl that felt so real. When I initially woke up I was the happiest I’d ever been until I realized it was just a dream and then I was depressed in bed for a few days. Talked to a trans friend later and they referred me to their therapist and now 7 years later here I am :)

That saddened me to hear your dreams were in some ways happier than your waking existence. I’m sorry you went through that and I hope you’re feeling better these days when you wake up to your life.
