10 Reasons Sexting Is Better Than Sex

(Newser) – Sexting is getting a bad rap—but you really shouldn’t judge until you’ve tried for yourself. Simcha Whitehill offers 10 reasons why sending sexy text messages is better than doing the deed in real life, on The Frisky:

  • Imagination: As in, you actually have to use it—and so does your partner.
  • Lingerie: No need to spend any money on it!

  • Your “number”: Yeah, your sex partner number. Luckily, it won’t get any higher with a virtual partner.
  • Less risk: Similarly, you won’t be in any danger of an STD or unplanned pregnancy.
  • Foreplay: “You get to explore every aspect of a fantasy,” and if you do it before meeting up, “it’ll jump-start both your engines.”

Who in their right mind decides "well I COULD go over to her house and get it on with her but, ya know, Seinfeld's coming on and it's that one episode I really like so.... I think I'm gonna just settle in with some candles, Barry White and my iPhone." LAME!
