Summary | Many people lie when sexting, meaning that they might be having a snack in their kitchen wearing sweat pants but writing something completely different. Because sexting is so completely detached from any actual physicality the mere innuendo is enough to entertain participants, even if it does not lead to an actual orgasm. Sexting is in a way a 'shared daydream'. A recent study reports that about half of their informants had sexted even though they were not really up for it.

Summary | A study about college students' sexting activity published in 'Computers in Human Behavior' shows that 45% of women lie while sexting, for instance when saying that they are wearing lingerie when really they are really doing something completely different, as opposed to only 24% of men. Because sexting can be completely ficticious, one can adopt a different sexual personality in sexting exchange that is nothing like one's actual sexual personality. The study also shows that a lot of disinterested sexting happens where people just go along with it even if they are not that into it because they are 'bored'.

Parents must monitor their children's activities on their smartphones to protect them from themselves. They have all right to do so since they are paying for their cell phone plans.
