Texts these two ladies sent to guys themselves.

Apparently, a simple “You’re cute” text is no longer enough in a relationship. Now, you gotta send nudey pics of yourself to your love interest, a trend brillantly titled, “sexting.” And the trend is catching on.

And we just don’t understand why. Have the Paris Hilton sex tape and those scandalous Miley Cyrus photos taught us nothing?! There are so many reasons Sexting is a terrible idea. Here are some of the biggies:

  1. Who knows where that picture is going to end up?! You send it to someone who sends it to someone who passes it on to someone else. What if by some weird connection your DAD gets the pic? Ew.
  2. Or worse…what if your boy toy isn’t the one who answered the text? We’ve all had our friends or family members grab our phones when they ring. What if that one time his dad picked it up?
  3. Cameras add 10 pounds, REMEMBER?! You never look as good as you think you do…
  4. On that note, isn’t it kind of hard to get the right angle on one of those things? You could end up with a double chin, or some freakish shadow that leaves your boy far from turned on when he begins to question when you grew a mustache. Unless of course you have someone else take it, which is all sorts of weird.
  5. God forbid you two break up; oh the things he can do with that picture, the people he could send it to. Forget that run for President, Missy. This one is gonna be around forever.
  6. What if you send it to Mom instead of Matt? Or Grandma instead of Greg?!
  7. All those new high tech phones out there (iPhone, Blackberry Touch), have some pretty serious Zoom features. Imagine him using that. On your nipple.
  8. He could open your pic at an inopportune time. Like when he’s at church. God is always watching…
  9. …and so is the government. Think about it.
  10. Nothing beats the real thing anyway. You don’t need a text message to spice things up with your boy. Try a little in-person strip tease or a hot shower. At least with those you know no one else is going to see.

Do you Sext?

    the iphone prevents this from ever happening bc you can't send/recieve picture texts. you can send emails with picture attachments though….

    Hell yeah I do. This is vital in a LDR when you can't see your SO whenever you like.

    I think the bigger problem is, it’s not really the school’s place, or really anyone’s business what pictures, that people take consensually and distribute.

    I prefer the term "textual intercourse."

    Hopefully, you're just texting and not living under your parents' roof.

    Next you win the Darwin Awards if you send your current boyfriend or anyone a naked or racy picture or video. You're an idiot. There's a video on youtube of a mother walking in on her daughter stripping infront of her webcam, the girl even got naked, she sent the vid to her guy anyway. And next thing you know you and I know all about it.

    Everyone says the person I'm in love with would never pass that to anyone else or *GASP* keep the picks after we break up.

    A boyfriend "wouldn't."

    But an EX "WOULD!"

    i wish i went to college in the era of cell phones & blackberry… think about how easy it would be to "sext" a girl who gives you a boner and arrange to meet in between classes at her dorm room and fuck her silly. Man no need to daydream about sex during class, just pick up the phone and do some "sexting" ! awesome
