Sexting

“Sexting” is the practice of sending sexually explicit texts, photos, or videos via cell phone. “It’s almost the normal order of operation now." You text back and forth and pretty soon you’re exchanging hot photos...:-)

Why do people do it? Some see it like, “having a naked picture of your significant other on your cellphone is an advertisement that you’re sexually active,” A friend once said after all “you can’t get pregnant from it and you can’t transmit S.T.D.’s.”

Other reasons for sexting include the following:
  • To flirt with someone they hope to be in a relationship with.
  • Because someone has already sent them an explicit photo and they feel pressured to ‘return the favor.’

    Guys as fun as sexting may sound, it  has its consequences. 



Once you send a photo via cell phone, you no longer own it, nor can you control how it might be used—or how it will affect your reputation. 

In some cases
  • Nude photos have been mass-forwarded by the recipient to entertain his friends.
  • Jilted boyfriends have distributed nude photos as a way to get revenge.

The scales tilt up at one end by just 3 micrometers —less than one twentieth the thickness of a human hair. Yet this tiny tilt lets the lantern shine almost 50 percent more brightly than it would if the scales formed an even surface!
