The list goes on. You can be opposed to something, and never have done it. Not necessarily a bad thing.

I personally don't have a problem with texting; in fact, while living in Europe for many years, I texted for business reasons more often than making calls.
However, my issue with texting is that, for most texters, whenever a new message is received, their instinctive reaction is to make a gunfighter-like draw for their smartphone to read them immediately.
