(Raises right hand.)
I, Joe(you can count on me.)Nation, do solemnly swear that I will never, ever, never,ever, never send a SEXT of myself to any other person for any reason, in any manner, form, context or design.

I do this in order to keep hope and love alive in the universe.

Joe(and, AARP Members, don't send me any either.)Nation

Prude.

((I have gotten far less restrained as I have gotten older. By the time I am over fifty; which is not that far away, who knows what I will be up for.))

I am available for in-person, um, interviews.

I'm going to continue because I can do it in my PJ's without makeup.
But I won't do it while driving.

@sullyfish6,

It's okay, sully. If they stop you, just tell them the PJs are sweats with a different cut.

@Joe Nation,

I'm with you, Joe:

Unseemly & undignified, even, in elders!

I figure I have earned my right to be unseemly and undignified-- and if I have learned any in my years, it is not to worry about such things.

@ebrown p,

You do understand my tongue was in my cheek when I made that comment, ebrown?

Actually, I couldn't care all that much what anyone else does, so go for it, by all means.

I didn't even know that people over 50 were allowed to engage in sexting.

@Setanta,

It's news to me, too!

Do geezers over 50 even know how to send text messages? Probably mess up and send it to the wrong person.

@Diest TKO,

Well dealing with all this new fangled technology, Diest, is challenging! Wink

So you've sorta gotta admire an oldie who manages the challenges of sexting! Even if they look like a silly goose for having done it! Laughing

@msolga,

From what I understand, old people start to get really sexually active near the end of their life. The retirement home we put my Grandfather at was full of sassy residents. It weirded me out enough that sexting is pretty low rent in terms of mental images.

This is the main issue. I have never owned my own cellphone. My wife and all my children have cellphones. When they asked me to get a cellphone, I told them that cellphones are only a fad. Why should I get one?
