Just had this thought, am I stroking it in my sleep when I’m having a wet dream? Or is it automatic?

    Could be.

    There are plenty of people that do masturbate in their sleep, and it’s more common during puberty.

    However, most wet dreams are generated without manual stimulation. Typically, it’s a combination of the stimulation of the genitals against clothing, or bedding with the brain’s ability to process those signals into something else and match it up with whatever dreams are ongoing.

    In some cases, it doesn’t even need any physical stimulation at all. The brain can do all the work, so just the bare minimum stimulation from the aroused genitals just being there is all it takes to generate orgasm.

    The pumping of blood, minor muscle tension and movements are all it takes when the brain is doing its thing.

    Matter of fact, it’s possible to have a hands free orgasm while awake for the same reason, though it takes practice.
