Sexting today, folks!

Hello everyone! First, I would like to thank you all for reading, commenting, and supporting my work. Your positive comments mean a lot to me. Today, new interesting and educational article. I bet each of you has tried this at least once in your life. So let's hear it :) The topic of the day is **S E X T I N G ! Yea!**

So, did you? Am I wrong? Don't be shy, come on .... :) Surely, I've tried it, and many times. And you know what? I enjoyed! Yes, sir! We all do it sometimes, but let's educate ourselves a little today, to learn how sexting is defined and what its disadvantages or consequences are. **WHAT IS S E X T I N G?** In modern times, sexting is a very common practice, either inside or outside of relationships - there are many who have sent sexual messages (photos, videos) to a person they like or are in a relationship with at least once in their life. Sexting or so-called "Dirty talk" is communication via telephone or computer devices in which sexual and intimate words, photos, or videos are exchanged. Sexting can be equally exciting and interesting for both parties involved, but it can also easily lead to abuse and breach of trust if some content is shared further without your knowledge and consent.

**THINK FIRST, THAN SEND!** Think about **WHAT** you are going to send, **TO WHOM** you are sending it, and **WHY**. If you have dilemmas about sending, you do not trust the person you are sending or you do it because you are asked, not because it is exciting for you - give up sexting! As in any communication, so in sexting, the most important thing is that all conditions are pleasant and that this type of communication causes you pleasure, not discomfort. **BE CAREFUL BECAUSE ALL CONTENT MAY BE RECORDED.** While many chat apps provide the option to delete messages, and some even do it automatically (like Snapchat), it's important to keep in mind that there are ways to capture all content. Also, there are screenshots. That's why it's important to think before sending any messages, and then send it! **IF AN UNCOMFORTABLE SITUATION STILL HAPPENS, SEEK SUPPORT.** People all over the world participate in sexting and often it remains a matter between those two people. However, in not a small number of cases, it happens that sexting abuses exactly the person in whom we had the most trust - our sympathy, boyfriend, girlfriend, friend. Maybe because you decided to break up or not agree to something you were asked to, that person will blackmail you or publish your intimate correspondence without your knowledge and consent. Always keep in mind that there is a real chance that this will happen. It’s not your fault in that situation, but it’s important to seek support! **Let's talk about support in these** **cases. What are your experiences? Has the content of sexting been abused? How did you feel? How did you react?** **What should be done in this case and who to contact?**
