An individual’s life is as much inside, as outside the self. As people live and interact in society, they also simultaneously live and interact inside their minds through their thoughts, imaginations and daydreams. Locating daydreams in sociology by journeying through the myriad meanings that can be attached to them, this paper focuses on the queerness of daydreams. Based on in-depth qualitative interviews of five youth from Kolkata who identify as queer and substantiated by auto-ethnography, a story is weaved of dreams, safety, compromise, fluidity, rebellion, restrictions, normativity, defiance, romance, discrimination and hope. The possibilities that daydreaming have for queerness in a society so quick to disallow their visibility emerges as a mundane revolution of survival. Daydreams become safe spaces, often the only spaces to be queer and to explore their sexuality. Further the paper also considers how in daydreaming queerness, the respondents also negotiate with the normative imageries of different sexualities perpetuated in media and market in terms of self-image, mannerisms, fashion, habits etc. The anthropological justification of this paper is explicated in the way daydreams become a platform to explore the complex interplay of individual and society at the level of the mind, and thus pushing the boundaries of what can be anthropologically imagined. The same is a contribution to existing sociological literature by attempting to creatively expand topics of anthropological enquiry by emphasizing the interrelation between individual mind and society. The study tries to arrive at what can be uncovered upon listening to the nuances of internal conversations with oneself inside the mind, and whether the same is influenced by images propagated in larger society through diverse forms of media or otherwise.
