It’s no secret to most people under the age of 25 that sexting, meaning the sending of sexually suggestive texts or nude photos, has become part of the adolescent courting process. I’ll admit I’ve dabbled in the world of sexting, and it’s kind of weird. But sexting is leaving the homeroom and making it to front page news. The Jesse James-Sandra Bullock break up and Tiger Woods-Joslyn James sex romp scandal are marred in controversy, but they both find common ground on the basis of sexting.
Today, In Touch Magazine posted pictures (who knows how the hell they got them) of semi-raunchy texts between greasemonkey Jesse James and the terrifyingly tattooed Michelle “Beastshell” Mcgee. Check em out here. Apparently the two have been cleaning each other’s sprockets for about a year now, under the pretense that James and Bullock were separated. Guess what, they weren’t. Isn’t it a little gross that adults are sexting? They are beautiful people (in some people’s opinion, not my own), but I still can’t help but to picture my parents doing that.
But James and Mcgee aren’t the only celebs making news and propelling the word “sexting” into the common American lexicon today. More revealing news on Tiger Woods’ insatiable sexual appetite has broken, and guess what the stories are all about: sexting. An insanely long list of texts between Woods and one of his mistresses, porn star Joslyn James, was published today (see here), and these make the James-Mcgee story look like texts I send to my yia yia. Among some of the more disturbing/bawdy sexts from Tiger are:
“I would love to have the ability to make you sore”
“Do you ever hook up with other guys or girls”
“I want to treat you rough. Throw you around, spank and slap you.”
“You are my f–king wh-re”
Wow. That’s pretty raunchy, and the list keeps going. What people do in the privacy of their own cellphones and their own monthly text bills is no one else’s business–unless you’re a celebrity I guess. But are sexts on the whole wrong? Probably not. In fact, a Federal Appeals Court in Pennsylvania ruled that people cannot be arrested on child pornography charges because of nude or semi-nude photos on their cellphone. I don’t really know how that makes sense because if some perv had pictures of your tweenage daughter/son, you’d probably be pretty angry.
Sexting is a part of our everyday lives now, as Americans want to distance themselves further and further from human contact. Celebrities especially should realize that everything they do is of public interest, and that if you’re having an affair, you should probably erase all your sexual messages. I mean do you think JFK kept all of Marilyn’s love letters lying around?
