Sexting More Prevalent than Americans Realize

iStock/Thinkstock(NEW YORK) — If a new poll from the April issue of Glamour magazine is to be believed, we have turned into one naughty nation.

The proof is in our texting, or rather, sexting, since two-thirds of the 2,000 men and women surveyed claim to have sent at least one risqué message in their lives. Overall, 30 percent told Glamour that they do so frequently.

If there is any guilt associated with sexting, it wasn’t evident in this poll. Over nine in ten admitted they actually enjoyed sending a naughty message or photo.

However, it all may come at a cost. Forty percent of the respondents did express some anxiety that what they sext might one day be shared with a much wider audience.
