Answer: The more Likes they have, the more it pays off financially because the promoters see that they are followed by many people and they offer them products or contracts.

We see that many stars share aspects of their intimacy via social networks, sometimes several times a day. Usually, what attracts the attention of the spectators is the hypersexualized content. The more sensational and revealing the content, the more Likes the stars gather, thus increasing their popularity. So, it is better to be followed on social networks for who you are, rather than for the clothes you wear or those you don't wear...

Answer: All of these objects can be associated with intimacy.

• Your toothbrush : Apart from mingling with other toothbrushes in the bathroom cabinet, a toothbrush is personal. It is not shared.

• Your diary : Writing in your diary is to jot down a lot of personal information. It sounds funny to share one's mood with a Facebook© status or tell a secret by texting to a friend. The difference is that with a diary you are the author and the only reader. It allows you to free yourself by expressing everything you feel on paper, without telling anyone.

• Your underwear : it's intimate, although some types of underwear are more visible. That said, you wouldn't go to school in your underwear.

• Your cell phone : A cell phone is no less intimate than other objects. It can contain private information, such as photos and videos, your contacts list, the content of text messages exchanged with your loved ones... In short, it can tell a lot!

• Your Facebook© account: Some may consider their Facebook© account as very intimate, because of the information it contains, depending on how they use it.

In short, although these objects are used in different contexts, they all have links to intimacy, to what is revealed about oneself and what one needs and/or wishes to protect.

Answer: All of these words can be associated with what intimacy means.

Something private is something personal, intimate, that belongs only to you. It's the opposite of what is public. For example, taking a bath is private. You would not take it in the middle of the school cafeteria.

Modesty, or to be modest, is to be discreet about certain aspects of one's intimacy or, in other words, keeping a little shyness. We wish at that time "to keep a little shyness" so as not to reveal intimate parts of our body.

When we talk about private parts, we are talking about the genitals, breasts, buttocks, in short, what we usually hide in our underwear.

A secret is something that usually concerns us personally or people very close to us. So, as a general rule, when you tell a secret to someone, it's because you trust them.

Answer: False

There are a few differences nonetheless.

Emotional intimacy:

We are emotionally intimate with someone we feel close to, with whom we share emotions, moods, interests, dreams, etc. We feel good, comfortable, safe with this person. You can experience emotional intimacy with your best friend, your parents, your brothers, your sisters, your lover, and so on.

Sexual Intimacy:

We are sexually intimate with a person with whom we share sexual activities, caresses, kisses, tenderness, but also their desires and needs. Sharing a sexual intimacy is usually associated with a relationship between two people: communication, respect, trust, and pleasure. This intimacy is built over time. It is not enough to be naked with someone to feel that you share real sexual intimacy.

Answer: All these answers

As we can see, a sext can be in various forms. While this may sound "naughty," "sexy" or "hot" between two willing people, it's important to remember that there is always a risk of exposing one's intimacy. It can also become a means of intimidating, threatening and abusing another person. In the case of shared images of minors (under age 18), charges of distributing child pornography may be laid. That's illegal!

Answer: All these answers are possible. Whatever the reasons, there are risks involved.

Even if you trust a person, you send them a sext of your own free will, without pressure or blackmail, you never know in whose hands it can fall. Once sent, you completely lose control of the sext. In addition, when sexually explicit photos or videos of minors are exchanged, this is a form of child pornography and criminal charges may result. Even though you may feel like everyone is doing it, don't do anything that makes you uncomfortable.

Answer : False

Pornography is material that shows explicit sexual activity, in a raw way aimed at provoking sexual arousal. It's true that it allows us to see people in action and, in this sense, it allows us to "see" certain sexual behaviors. Pornography presents a montage of various sexual scenes in which a limited and sometimes false image of sexuality is portrayed. It doesn't give us access to the complicity, affection, tenderness, and emotions that people feel. Rather, it presents a sexuality show that becomes something banal and mechanical and which, at most, does not require the consent of the other person.

Pornography can be the cause of some physical complexes if one compares one's appearance to that of porn stars. It shows hairless muscular bodies, big breasts (often redone), imposing penises, etc. Remember that in "real life" every body is unique and there is not just one attractive model. Finally, pornography conveys a fictional and negative image of the genres since it presents dominant men on the one side and inferior and submissive women on the other. Pornography, therefore, does not present an example of a healthy sexual relationship, egalitarian and consenting. It is wrong to believe that one must obey this model.

Answer : False

The law prohibits children under the age of 18 from accessing pornographic material, among other things because of the lack of maturity or the difficulty for young people to distinguish between fiction and reality. Thus, there is a risk that young people will equate pornography with reality.

Although the majority of adults who consume porn do so by being critical and lucid about these sexual scenes, it is possible that, just as among young people, the consumption of pornography is harmful. Thus, some adults may be more influenced by pornographic images, hoping to reproduce the same thing in their private lives or even have trouble living real sexual relations without all this artifice. They don't feel the same desire anymore. For others, consumption takes up too much space (e.g.: porn addiction) and has negative consequences on their personal life, their life as a couple or their professional lives.

Answer : True

Before the Internet, it was rather difficult to obtain pornographic material (e.g.: only adults aged 18 and over could get porn magazines or videos in video clubs). Today, we are only one click away from viewing full sex acts on a screen. One can even, without wanting to, stumble upon pornographic content by accident. In short, porn sneaks around us, even on social networks that greatly facilitate its accessibility.

Answer : True

Pornography is found in many media, even in cartoons. The problem is that children (and teens) are naturally attracted to animated films. They may be attracted by these images and develop a curiosity, which can be harmful. In addition, associating the cartoon usually related to childhood with explicit sexual images for adults is rather disturbing (e.g.: some Mangas).
