Addicted to Sexting Page #3

talk to them if you wanted to.

We didn't have technology,

but we had more personal interaction.

Let me give you the history

before...

You think sexting,

nobody did this before in the old days?

I'll tell you.

First of all, with the pictures.

This is what you did.

When you were a kid,

there was no digital film.

You couldn't just like, you know,

take a picture of yourself,

put it on the computer,

something like that.

It went on a film which means you

had to bring it to the photo matte.

You bring it to

the neighborhood drug store

and you give it to the lady

behind the drug store

where you buy all the cold medicine from,

and all that other stuff.

And you give it to them,

and you just hope that they don't look

at it before they give it to you.

And when you go to pick up your pictures,

you are worried.

And the women at the back,

they go...

And you know that they

just saw your dick.

To fully understand

the evolution of sexting,

we have to go all the way back

to the beginning.

30,000 BC.

The earliest known example of transmitted

sexual imagery date back to cave paintings

created in paleolithic times.

1150 AD. The preferred method

was the carrier pigeon.

It's not a stretch to imagine two

young lovers exchanging naughty words

by means of

an unsuspecting fowl.

Although, the months long wait

for a response,

might have doused the

flames of love just a bit.

1909 AD.

A clear proponent

of the long-form sext,

James Joyce was quite well-known for his

saucy correspondence with his spouse, Nora,

in which he employed similar prose

found in more modern sext messages.

"Nora, my love for you

allows me to pray

"to the spirit of eternal beauty and

tenderness mirrored in your eyes.

"Want to fling you down under

me in that soft belly of yours,

"and f*** you up behind

like a hog riding a sow."

1948 AD.

With the advent of instant film

and the Polaroid camera,

the sexter's cause

was greatly advanced

not only by the amount

of time saved,

but also by the lack of smirks

from photo lab workers.

1970 AD.

A certain numerical sequence

enjoyed prolific use

with the invention

of the pocket calculator

beginning in 1970,

and was popular with adolescents

and less than mature

mathematicians.

The cleverly crafted sext,

8-0-0-8-5, AKA, B*OBS.

1990 AD.

Although the technology

has existed since the late '50s,

it wasn't until the '80s and

'90s that pagers became more widely used.

And not just for emergencies,

lustful companions often used them to trade

sexts of the alpha-numeric persuasion.

1992 AD.

22-year-old engineer,

Neil Papworth,

is noteworthy for having sent the

very first text message in history.
