This seems like the type of video I'd expect in a response on Reddit. That is, it's a response that's trying to be funny (or link something funny) rather than continue the conversation at hand.

I was really hoping it would be a link providing evidence to one side (Snapchat is primarily sexting) or the other side (only a small % of snapchat usage is sexting).

The joke can't exist in a cultural vacuum. It has a lot of views and resonates with people because sexting on Snapchat is A Thing.

You can't really have much more than anecdotal evidence at this point, so I offered this.

Having cybersex on Skype is a thing, but you people just don't say Skype is used for cybersex.
