ICT influences in sexuality
With the arrival of information and communication technologies better known as ICT, they have caused a revolution in the way of communicating and relating: due to their great speed to transmit information on a large number of topics. Among the issues is including sexuality, since, it has made this theme more accepted among society, since it must be remembered that since ancient times sexuality has been a problematic and taboo issue, despite being common and necessaryFor people, even today schools and families do not cause good sex education, but the network cannot be explored with such security, because, it also has its other side due to the existence of pages on the network that promotes it in a wayTally wrong causing an erroneous message.
For Castro, Guzmán, & Casado (2009) ICTs are a series of supports and channels, whose central nucleus consists in registering, storing and disseminating informational content, that is, to share the codes (images, videos, texts, etc.). Among the most popular electronic media are computers, cell phones, tablets, among others. The use of these different devices is increasingly present in the daily life of society in general, since, they are having a series of consequences that can be considered both positive and negative because this will depend on the perspective that each person takes on some subject, for these reasons personal relationships have been modified in daily life, a clear example of this are applications to meet new people or to have quotes.
Although all the information shared on the different platforms, for some it is correct and for others, the ICTs are distinguished by the influences of emerging habits in society, so that technology only transports us to new scenarios and ideas, which, whichThen with the help of the research and analysis of its effects they help take positions to choose a path and the direction to build a society, but who decides the address will be man (Sánchez Duarte, 2008). Although ICTs bring bilateral information, they have helped normalize controversial or taboo themes such as sexuality.
Sexuality is a primary aspect of the human condition, which will be present throughout life, it covers sexual orientation, gender roles, eroticism, pleasure, affective bond and reproduction, these are experienced and expressed in the form ofthoughts, fantasies, beliefs, attitudes, values, behaviors, etc. It is important to mention that sexuality is influenced by factors: biological, psychological, social, economic, cultural, legal, historical, and religious (Silverio Barriga Jiménez, 2013). Despite being something normal and important to meet, for many people it is still bad to talk about sexuality, because, as González, González, & Valdez, (2016), despite the fact that there are important cultural changes and abundant information, there are no changessignificant about sexuality, since it is still a taboo subject. However, with the arrival of ICT, information about sexuality was very quickly spread even more accepted than before, a clear example of this the greatest acceptance of the LGBTI community, since there are hundreds of pagesin which they demonstrate that the importance of including in society the members of this community.
But on the other hand Giraldo (2013) mentions that with the arrival of ICTs a door was opened to a new virtual world, expanding the spaces of knowledge and sexual exploration, however, the virtual manages to cross conventional limits, allowing to visualize the blood , internal organs or coital sex, in photographs and videos, without altering the organic integrity of men and women. This is why ICTs will always be a double -edged sword, because in the network there are no restrictions to access pornographic pages, which promote erroneous messages about what sexuality is: among the most notorious is that people start at earlierage in sexual life and as sexting do as normal to send photos completely or partially naked.
As a conclusion we can say that to learn sexuality with the help of ICTs which influences at a high level to this, there are knowing limits between those accepted and what is not acceptable, this could be achieved by introducing family members and educators, Authority in charge of the education and sexual welfare of people and the tics themselves in a single set to learn, that is, it is not enough with a single source of information, all the available ones must be taken, because well the ICTs have completely reformed the way in which people communicate to exchange information or simply learn something new for their great speed to transmit, making this impossible to prevent it from being used for its benefits, and although it has achieved that sexuality is better understood by the society teaching what their importance for people is, breaking the taboos, it has also exceeded the limits, because, in ICTs it is not possible to evidence itar that pornographic pages or sexting are promoted which ICTs make these as normals regardless of the consequences they bring for people.
