Webcams and online chatting have sparked a new "sexual revolution" among youth, Dutch researchers said Thursday.
In a large but nonscientific survey, nearly a quarter of males and 20 percent of females said they had recently had "cyber sex" _ defined as pretending to have actual sex while sending each other sexually explicit messages or images. Three quarters of girls and 80 percent of boys said they had flirted online.
"Just like the sexual revolution in the 1960s and 70s of the past century, the Internet has made whole new forms of sexual relations possible, and they are being used for the first time en masse by a new generation of youth," researchers said in a summary of their findings.
However, the survey found that 26 percent of girls and 10 percent of boys said they had had a negative experience related to online sex, ranging from inappropriate sexually tinged remarks to outright harassment.
Yeppers that's how it goes. Girls do it and get called hoes. I had never heard of any guys getting harassed at school by girl(s) that they showed off or wanked with though.
"Parents talk only about the danger and risks of the Internet; they are very focused on how to protect their children from online predators," she said "These data suggest they should be thinking about something else: that the kids are all 'doing it' online already."
Arrghh! It aint' about danger, it's about jackasses and knowing how things work. If you show it on a computer somebody will cappit and share it. Oh and then there is this kinda stuff.
