The studies of subject of the sexuality are quite seldom. Parents and teachers tend to undervalue the significance of the sexuality education and are negligent of it. It is very important to educate the sexuality, especially during the teen years. Therefore, this really dramatic period is analyzed in this work. Virtual environment is likely the main environment where young people communicate discussing the topic of sexuality. The teenagers’ inappropriate communication in that environment makes strong influence on the communication among them in the real life environment. Accordingly, teenagers’ communication in virtual environment is the subject of this work as well. The empirical research helped to reach a goal of this work.
