So, you want to level up your sexting game? We don't blame you, sexting is the ultimate 21st century form of foreplay, and it can be just as fun to send messages as it is to receive them! We put together a little guide for you to be the sexiest texter there is, and warm yourself up for the real action that comes after the digital.
What is sexting?
Okay, so this one's probably obvious, but sexting is the act of sexually explicit texting. This includes flirting, descriptive messages about what you want to do to the person on the other line, naughty pictures- the posibilities are endless really. If you're not an avid sexter, we're going to show you how you can be (and why you should be!), because sexting is an awesome way to incorporate the tech we use into everyday life, and turn it into something more fun and intimate.
How do you sext?
First things first, like we always stress here at Bang!, start with consent. No one likes an unsolicited dick pic. It's creepy and really gives off the opposite vibe of what you want sexting to be. It's supposed to be fun, flirty, and full of lust and anticipation. When you're receiving an unwarranted snapshot of someone's junk... well, that's not exactly what we're going for. So start off by asking for consent. A little, "hey, is it okay if I send you a pic? thinking of you 😉", goes a long way!
Take it slow
You can choose to be bold with an intro like that, but a good way to ease into sexting is by starting off flirtacious. Throw in some compliments into your usual conversation, and soon enough it'll be a back and forth. Then, it won't feel so daunting to drop something like, "I wish you were here with me right now" or "I'm getting so hard thinking about you, can I show you?". There's no perfect trajectory for sexting conversations to go, but a good way to approach it is to start off slow and build up to the good stuff. It'll feel more natural that way, and you'll know your honey's anticipation is real.
Be playful
Sex is fun, and sexting should be the same way. So don't take yourself too seriously or proofread every single message. Be playful! Include some teasing jokes or emojis in your sexts, and remember it's all in the name of fun. What's the point of getting turned on if you're not enjoying the time you're spending doing it? If you have an iPhone, iMessage effects can be a fun way to spice things up too! Consider sending a steamy message or photo in invisible ink, or congratulating your boo on their awesome tits by sending the text with confetti sprinkles! Whatever you choose to do, remember it's supposed to be fun, so get hard or get wet and have a little laugh too.
Have pictures ready
Is there anything worse than your crush asking you for a pic when you're caught off guard?! Sure, video calls and live sexting is hot, but let's be honest, we're not always photo ready when we're sexting. Sometimes we're horny, chilling in our PJs in a dimly lit room when they wanna see a glorious picture of our body... uh oh! But don't worry, there's a way around this, and that's to be prepared! On a good day with good lighting, take some stellar shots of yourself. For guys, this means a great dick pic that shows off your length and girth, and for the ladies, this can be anything from a slightly scandy cleavage shot to a full on bent-over-cheeks-spread nude. Feel free to get creative with the pictures, and choose a sexy photoshoot time that is well in advance of your sexting session. That way, you'll have the pics ready to go whenever you're called on, and you'll feel confident that you're showcasing your best self! Your partner will love it.
So there you have it, our short little guide to being a pro at sexting. This list is not all-inclusive, because sexting is a creative and steamy activity, and there's really no one "right" way to go about it. Just make sure you get consent, have fun with it, and have pics of your bangin' bod ready! ...Is my phone overheating, or is that just you? 🔥
