Sexting is such a key part of culture that for some people, it’s hard to imagine a time without it. Whether you’re in a long-distance relationship or just missing your significant other during a weekend apart, sexting has the capability to bring two people closer together. Whether you’ve sexted before or you’re part of the minority that hasn’t, there’s probably something more you can learn about the intricacies of this exciting experience.
The History of Sexting
When did sexting start? Well, the origins of the practice reach back pretty far. The first example of the phrase “sext messaging” in a news source appears to date back to 2004, with an article in The Globe and Mail warning readers, “For many people, "sext messaging" has a disinhibiting effect, like having a couple of cocktails.”
Snapchat’s Key Impact
If you’ve been on the internet almost at all in the past five years, you’ve probably heard of Snapchat. Most of the time, you’ll have heard of Snapchat in the context that it’s very widely used for: sexting. That’s because Snapchat photos and messages disappear after one to 10 seconds, making it perfect for risqué or nude photos and texts.
There are also plenty of benefits to Snapchat that make it wildly effective for sexting. If the other person takes a screenshot of your picture, you’ll get a notification about it. You can also color the photos in the app, which makes it easy for you to edit out your face or other recognizable parts of your picture.
How Common Is Sexting?
Whether you’ve sexted before or you’ve never tried it before, you probably know that sexting is super common. Do you actually know how common it is? Drexel University performed a sexting study in 2015 that found that a staggering 88% of adults ages 18-82 have sent a sext to a partner, and 96% of adults endorse it.
Inspiration to Rely On
Now you can get to the good stuff. How do you sext? Even if you’ve sexted before, if you’ve never gotten some good education in the topic, you might not know how to do it. Here are a few pointers.
- Words and Messages
On its own, sexting can feel awkward, to say the least. It’s hard to type out the things you typically say to your partner when you have sex in person. However, if you’re willing to let go of any embarrassment you might feel, you can discover some incredible ways to spice things up. Consider some of these phrases next time you’re sexting.
- “I thought of something I’d love to do to you tonight.”
- “You always feel so good inside of me.”
- “Being inside of you always feels so good.”
- “What do you think about us doing when you masturbate?”
- “I’m going to tease you until you just can’t take it anymore.”
- “I’m so wet for you right now.”
- “Thinking of you has me rock hard.”
Be creative and tailor your messages toward whatever you and your partner like most.
- Lingerie and Accessories
One of the benefits to sexting is that you can create the perfect picture to make your partner tremble in excitement. That means finding some lingerie that makes you look super-hot and taking an absolutely unbeatable video.

That may mean a Bluetooth vibrator that you can control from an app so your partner can control your pleasure. Alternately, construct a perfect replica of your partner’s body with a body molding kit. The opportunities are truly endless.
