Teenagers aren’t the only ones sending racy pictures and text messages over their cell phones. Believe it or not, the AARP says “sexting” is catching on with the 50-and-up crowd.

Debbie Nigro is 52 and started getting “sext” messages a couple years ago.

“The world is becoming ageless. There is no expiration date on sexy. There just isn’t,” said Nigro, who runs FirstWivesWorld.com, a group she helped create for divorced women. She told CBS 2 HD with so many out there, sexting is becoming a lot more popular.

“Women in particular are crashing that middle age stereotype. And divorce, being what it is in this country right now, has half the population out dating right now at a much older age than they’d ever imagined,” said Nigro.

She said it’s a lot more common than one might think, since folks don’t run around talking about it. She said it’s important not to cross the line of respect, and that sensuous talk is a lot better than blatant sexual messages. But have fun.

“The only difference between being 50 and sexting and being 20 and sexting is you need reading glasses to see what the heck they’re saying,” she said.

    The unfortunate side of things is that our minds won’t decay as fast. Fortunately there’s a pill for that. (mildly NSFW)
