Addicted to Sexting Page #6

Synopsis: "ADDICTED TO SEXTING", a compelling (and sometimes humorous) look at the rise and proliferation of this social phenomenon from several varying perspectives and how the lives of those engaged in it are affected. Throughout the course of the film, we examine nearly every aspect of what has become a national and international pastime. A vast range of opinions give their input about this delicate subject and, as such, discussions with notable figures in the entertainment, political and medical fields (among others) are included. The film touches on the many high profile scandals surrounding public officials and the resulting consequences of their actions. In stark contrast, an honest look at the possibility of sexting as a positive development within the framework of healthy relationships is also presented. Sexting exists and is not likely to disappear anytime soon. "ADDICTED TO SEXTING" shows the why, how and what possible purpose it serves.

No. Nope.

E-mail. Stick with e-mail.

I don't know if Viagra...

You know, people should've been

not having sex for a long time.

Like, should've been done, retired from

having sex, all of a sudden, having sex.

And you know,

they leave things around.

You know, so their phone's gonna be left...

You don't want, like,

the grandkids to find the phone,

and then it's like, ugh.

If you're an old person,

and you have a cellphone,

and you know how to text,

uh, yeah, go ahead,

knock yourselves out.

Look, we got parental blocks

all over the world.

I think it's about time we put some

grandparental blocks on some things,

and sexting might be the first

and foremost to put it on.

Some guy's going,

"Hey, look at this.

"It's going to work.

It's going to work."

The woman's going, "That might be

going to work, but my p*ssy's retired.

"So, I'm sorry.

It's gonna have to call in sick."

E-mail at maximum.

Maybe a family picture sent.

But sexting, no way.

No one wants to see those wrinkle sticks.

You can't make "Don't sit under the apple

tree with anyone else but me" sexy.

You can't.

Well, you know, with Viagra,

I suppose, you know,

why should they be left out of it?

But that's like putting a new

flagpole on a condemned building.

I mean, what the f***?

Breaking news just in to our

newsroom in New York City.

The New York mayoral candidate,

Anthony Weiner,

now admits he sent additional explicit

photos and texts to a woman online.

For the past few years,

I have engaged in several

inappropriate conversations

conducted over Twitter,

Facebook, e-mail,

and occasionally on the phone

with women I had met online.

What about the gods opening up the

clouds and giving us that one?

But it was just so easy,

you couldn't even touch it.

No pun intended.

Anthony Weiner, perfect example.

Sent a picture of himself

to somebody

he really didn't know,

and had conversations with that

person electronically he didn't know.

And look what happens.

He tried to...

As far as I can remember,

he tried to deny

that it was him.

Then people were,

"It's kind of a big dick.

He goes, "Oh, yeah. That is me."

The craziest part of the whole

Anthony Weiner thing is...

the guy never met you

face-to-face.

No, he never met me.

But I've had more contact

with you already.

You had to say to yourself

"This guy is one sick puppy," right?

Oh, totally. Especially after the

first scandal had already happened.

Brett Favre, the same thing.

Jen Sterger,

the New York Jets TV host

caught up in a sexting scandal

with Brett Favre.

It was all investigated

by the NFL last fall.

They concluded

Jenn did nothing wrong,

but fined Favre $50,000

for failing to fully cooperate

with the probe.

Oh, my god.

You guys saw Brett Favre's dick pic?

He had f***ing Crocs on,

and his dick was not even hard.

That's the worst thing

you can do,

is to be wearing Crocs

and have a small dick.

Before sexting,

Congressman Foley had

an instant message conversation

with a page,

where he said things.

Stupidly thinking that

instant message conversations

just sort of disappear

when you're done.

Not knowing that the person was copying

and pasting everything that he said.

He lost his job.

It turns out that James Franco

was trying to pick up a teenager on

Instagram, in case you haven't heard.

The Oscar-nominated actor was busted

for flirting with a 17-year-old.

You can hear him saying

to the girl,

"Tag me on Instagram" in that.

'Cause he, obviously, thought

she was hot,

and wanted to be able to find

where this person was.

Then they Instagram messaged back and

forth, and then it flowed into texts.

And then he said, "Well,

do you want me to come over?"

Uh, you know, I'm embarrassed,

and I, uh...

I guess I'm just a model of,

you know, how social media is tricky.

I used bad judgment,

and I learned my lesson.

I think we need to manage

our expectations

of celebrities and politicians

a little bit better.

The reality is that

these people are humans.

They're people.

We need to have realistic

expectations on their behaviors.

I think we expect people

in those positions

to almost be inhuman sometimes.

And then we shame them

for these behaviors.

And I think this should be looked

at as a symptom of our culture.

Hollywood actress, Eva Longoria,

caught her NBA husband sexting.

Sexting can lead to divorce just

like cheating leads to divorce.

And as a matter of fact,

sexting might be used

as evidence in a divorce case.

Sure. Sounds good.

How does eggplant Parmesan sound?

LOL.

Okay. Sh*t.

LOL. Whatever you like.

Ah. This just doesn't work.

Come on, that is a foul.

Clearly.

Eggplant is fine!

Again with the eggplant.

Um, yes, eggplant is fine.

Wait, wait.

"At attention"?

At attention?

Uh, yes it will.

Oh, sorry. Too late.

I think I just started

my period.

Hmm, okay.

It's gonna be fun

to deal with that later.

One of the things

we've already started to see

in this era of electronic

communication

is that some people,

for some reason,

don't pay attention to the

possible problems that can crop up

from sending something

from your phone to someone else.

I think that one of the problems

of this being such a great tool

is that then people

will rely on it too much.

And then you find that people will end

up having almost entire relationships

just using this.

You lose so much in just sexting

because you don't have the tone

of somebody's voice,

or you can't tell

what someone's feeling.

And so those really simple

subtleties are lost.

Things get just misconstrued,

where, you know, someone

says something.

You get a text and you're like,

"What did that mean? Did he mean it like

this? Or did he mean it like this?"

And then, something gets taken

completely out of context

and a fight gets started just

because of how something's said.

You lose the art

of actually socializing.

You know, people aren't

going out as much.

You know, you end up

doing this really weird thing

where you're at home isolating

to find somebody.

The exhilaration, the excitement

from a possible encounter

or to see where something goes,

far outweighs

the threat of danger.

Today, a Nova Scotia woman

is speaking out

about a tragic tale.

She shares her story of her

teenage daughter's suicide,

and the bullying

she encountered.

Rehtaeh's mother says Rehtaeh

experienced months of torment

after a revealing photo

was circulated.

That night, she says,

four boys raped her daughter.

While one of the guys

was having sex with her,

another guy said, "Take a picture.

Take a picture."

And she heard the picture click.

What did it show?

It showed a guy

having sex with her.

It's scary.

Her story is similar

to the case of Amanda Todd.

The BC team who put up

a video on YouTube

detailing how she was bullied

over a graphic photo.

A lot of the messages

are not just confined to

one person's phone.

There may even be
