Would You Make Your Ex Delete the Racy Photos You Had Sent Them?

We're all glued to our phones throughout the day. If it's not to check work emails, it's to keep in touch with the people in your life. We're also texting our lovers, sending them updates of our daily activity, and occasionally sending racy texts, videos, photos or emails.
According to a survey by tech security company McAfee, 54 percent of smartphone users do this. But only a third of people have asked an ex to delete those mementos when they broke up.
The survey studied the tech habits of more than 1,500 people and found that most of us get intimate over the phone, especially Millennials (70 percent of 18-24 year olds have sexted). And while 96 percent of sexters trust their exes with tech history, only 32 percent have asked exes to get rid of the evidence once the relationship was over.
The issue here is that even if you trust your ex, revenge porn is definitely one possible matter. The other issue is if their phone got stolen or hacked.
There's nothing wrong with sexting if you trust the person on the other end of the screen, but it's important to be smart about it. For example, you could make sure your photos are taken neck down, and warn your partner if you're going to send them a sext in case their phone is open.
