New York: Do you exchange sexually explicit message with the opposite sex either to get into the mood or fulfill your partner's fantasies? You may be faking orgasm “non-physically”.
According to an interesting research, lying while sexting was found more common among women - at 45 percent - compared with 24 percent among men.

The participants listed several reasons for lying, including wanting to make a partner happy or fulfill a partner's fantasy.
Some said they lied to avoid upsetting their partners.

The findings appeared in the journal Computers in Human Behavi
