Always the opposite sex in my dreams
There are five theories about what dreams mean in psychology. Two of them seem relevant here. The psychoanalytic view - which, I should point out, has no evidence behind it - says that our dreams are a way for your subconscious to send you messages about desires and fears that you can't admit to in real life. In your case, perhaps a desire to be male. However, this same view suggests that dream messages often use symbols in their meanings, so it could be something more subtle, like a fear of your sexuality, or a desire to be confident and aggressive and free of female restrictions. The cognitive appraisal threat simulation theory says that our brains are testing out scenarios in harmless ways - often used to explain nightmares. Sometimes these scenarios are realistic, but often they're disturbing (I had a dream that I was having sex with my mother... I had a dream that I was taking a test and didn't know any of the answers and I'm thirty years old... And so on). In this theory, your dreams aren't really important, but your brain might be trying to figure out whether your gender makes a difference. The other three theories are all different, but come down to 'they don't mean anything important'. One says that it's your brain's way of recording the day's events into long term memory - but since it's doing so at a very accelerated pace, it often mixes multiple events together into nonsensical dreams. There's evidence that this could be true, because our dreams usually involve people and things we interact with - farmers have more dreams about farm animals, for example. This theory would explain your dreams as you having a lot of interaction with men on a daily basis. EDIT: Mixed up the name of one theory, sorry. More on reddit.com

[Help] my dog is always going the opposite direction during walks

I have treats (we actually just use his dry food) that I keep in my left jacket pocket. When he walks next to me on my left side, I give him treats. You may want to start by keeping a treat in your hand so he follows along and then rewarding frequently. After awhile, you can start treating less frequently. You can also incorporate a "heel" command into this.

If you aren't already, never "reward" him for his wandering on walks - if he starts going in a different direction, stop the walk, show him a treat, and reward the treat once he starts walking alongside you again.

Good luck! :)

Why is it that I always am in the opposite team of a person?
Nope, there was a guy a few seasons ago I blocked so he could never friend request me who after being the sole worst player in the game 4 games in a row on my team finally was put on the other team in ranked. I made sure he never evolved into gardevoir the 2 games he played against me. More on reddit.com

Book review: Opposite of Always by Justin A Reynolds – Anxious Nachos
December 20, 2019 - This book was a welcome relief from high fantasy overload. Whilst there is a tiny portion of magic related to time travel, the story is a contemporary romance and that is very much the plot focus. Opposite of Always follows Jack King, a boy who always comes second.

March 29, 2019 - There were many times I laughed out loud, shook my head at some of Jack’s decisions, had my heart break for him, but most of all, just loved the wonderful human being he was. At it’s heart, Opposite of Always is a romantic comedy with a slice of science fiction-ness mixed in.

October 16, 2021 - However, Jack will learn that his actions are not without consequences. And when one choice turns deadly for someone else close to him, he has to figure out what he’s willing to do to save the people he loves. Opposite of Always feels like an awkward mash-up of Groundhog Day, (500) Days of Summer, and A Walk to Remember.
