The Shocking "Sexting Codes" Teens Are Using That You Need To Know About

Gone are the days where texting lingo was as harmless as "LOL" and "ROFL".

These days, as technology advances, so have our teens and their texting habits. On Friday, the Northern Irish police team PSNI Newry and Mourne shared an infographic containing the most used sexual acronyms and emojis that teens have been using to convey different types of sexual requests and acts.

The guide appeared on Facebook and has since garnered more than 4,000 shares worldwide.
