Do anyone else not imagine visuals when they are reading? Like are you supposed to be so cucked that you let your mind create visuals described by another person? When authors describe things, I just take their word for it, and I will not allow an author to control me or tell me what I am supposed to be imagining.

I do imagine visuals. I just suck at it.

I imagine visuals, but it's like a dream kinda. My conscious mind is focused on reading the text but my unconscious mind is like generating the imagery for the text

So picking up a book with somebody else's stories an ideas is somehow not being cucked, only imagining the things described? Idgi

I enjoy directing scenes in my mind while reading fiction. It can be hard when I donโ€™t know the setting, but Iโ€™ll look up things up or look at fan art if I need to. It helps a lot with remembering small details.

Sometimes I will imagine a character however the fuck I want if the author's description doesn't meet what I think the character should look like. Nothing too egregious, just sometimes I think the physical appearance I imagined is better.

The thing about this is that it's very hard to try to explain to somebody else how you perceive mental images in your head.
That being said, I do visualize everything I read, subconsciously, I don't do it on purpose, it just happens. Sometimes it's pretty vivid, sometimes it's like remembering a dream, or those first dal.le pics. Reading a book feels like watching a movie to me. Afterwards, if I remember a certain part of the book, I don't remember specific sentences or how it was written, I remember how it looked in my head. It has its ups and downs. Since I mostly read prose and fiction it's fun to "watch" the characters doing stuff, but when there's a lot of introspection my mind stops visualizing (because you're just reading about mental thoughts of characters) and if I don't focus enough I lose track of the text. Like, I'm so used to visualizing while reading that I use it to make sure I understand what I'm reading, and when there's nothing to visualize it's harder for me to understand stuff. Anyone else? Or am I nuts?
