Looking for an out-of-this-world sexual experience? Many people turn to cyberspace for gratification. Whether single, committed or somewhere in between, cyberspace often seems like a harmless way to have some naughty fun free of consequences. With cybersex, individuals achieve sexual gratification through instant text messages or video chats. Serious cybersex aficionados may even don virtual reality equipment. These virtual encounters seem like a big deal because there is no physical interaction with another person, eliminating the risk of pregnancy and sexually transmitted diseases. In fact, the outcome of cybersex usually involves participants pleasuring themselves. In many cases, cybersex is often had with anonymous partners, so there is no inherent risk of any emotional complications. This begs the question -- is cybersex really cheating? It really all depends on who you ask.
