Sexting, Snapchat, and other forms of Online Porn Addiction and Internet Infidelity

Dr. Youngâ€™s new book covers how online sexual behavior is evolving quickly and describes the psychological, emotional, and social motives of online sex users. It also reviews how physical, sexual, and emotional abuse impact technology-based healthy sex as well as sexually deviant online behavior.

In the modern digital era, it is no longer necessary to seek out another person, in person, in order to have a sexual experience.

The proliferation of sexting and porn sites have ignited an intense debate of what is normal, healthy, pathological, legal, acceptable, etc. It has also sparked the debate over what is acceptable or ok to do at what age, and what are the meanings of privacy and normalcy.

A survey in Divorce Magazine found that only 46% of men considered intense Internet relationships to be infidelity, compared to 72% of women.

Snapchat is often referred to as 'the sexting app' because it makes it is easy to use and people believe it is more secure and private.

Users of Snapchat are various and include teenagers sending explicit Snapchat photos to their friends; adults sending Snapchat pictures to children; and couples sending photos of themselves having sex.

While some sex and porn addicts use compulsive masturbation as a part of their acting out, others engage only minimally in the sex act itself but nonetheless end up losing themselves to the endless sexual images and sites found online.

Some signs of porn addiction can include: an inability to stop the behavior(s) and porn use despite previous attempts to do so; anger or irritability if asked to stop; hiding or attempting to keep secret all or a part of the porn use; and living a double or secret life related to porn.

The costs of online sex and porn addiction can range from emotional, physical health and financial problems to legal, relationship, family, and career consequences.

Virtual communities make it possible to invent experiences and relationships. For instance, Second Life, contains a Red Light District, while Sociolotron enables users to participate in sexually coercive activities.

As users dabble with sex from the privacy of their home, office, or cars via mobile phones and tablets, they perceive their online activities as personal and untraceable.

Just as with other addictive processes, porn addicts need more extreme, unusual or deviant forms of pornography as the addiction develops.

This book covers:

New trends in sexting and mobile phone sex addiction.

Psychological motives and stages of online sex addiction.

How anonymity enables sexually deviant online behavior.

Current strategies to help you or a loved one avoid online sex addiction.
