Jill and Joe Biden reveal ‘Fexting’ — but may not know term’s obscene roots
Harper’s Bazaar Monday that she and her hubby hash out their “occasional” fights via text message, describing the act as “fexting.”But while the Bidens might think the slang term is a cute amalgamation of the words “fighting” and “texting,” Urban Dictionary defines the word as a crude colloquialism that actually means “f–king while texting.”The website asserts that “fexting” can also be used in a variety of other contexts — but never as a slang term for fighting via text. According to the site, the word can also mean “fake text messaging,” as well as “sending Facebook messages of an extreme sexual nature.”The first lady may soon bring her own G-rated definition of the word into the public lexicon, saying she and Joe have been “fexting” for more than a decade.
