Do ‘typical’ sexual fantasies exist?

"Can we use unusual sexual fantasies to identify sexual deviancy? Is there a link between what people fantasize about and how they actually behave?

Psychiatry’s two main diagnostic manuals list certain sexual interests - such as voyeurism, exhibitionism, fetishism, sadism and masochism - as “anomalous” or “unusual”. But, our study shows that some of these fantasies are not all that unusual."

Many people have fantasies that they do not act upon, can fantasies be pigeonholed to pt an individual into a box, I don't think so, too many variables, can effect this.

To put it in a very complicated way, you are looking here at the nature/nurture argument of psychology.
