Can someone explain a/s/l in texting?

Question

My phone keeps mentioning a/s/l in texting and i've no idea whether it matters. It worked fine a few months ago, which is the confusing bit. Is it worth turning on?

age, sex, location. chatroom shorthand from the irc and msn days, someone asking who they're talking to. nothing on your phone is generating it, it's just what a person typed.

And if a random stranger opens with it, you don't owe them any of the three. That's half the reason it got a creepy reputation.
