A Kiss Is Still A Kiss -- Or Is It?

Science Daily had this great article on kissing, but here are the highlights.

"While many forces lead two people to connect romantically, the kiss, particularly the first kiss, can be a deal breaker."

"Kissing is part of an evolved courtship ritual," said Gallup. "When two people kiss there is a rich and complicated exchange of information involving chemical, tactile, and postural cues. This may activate evolved mechanisms that function to discourage reproduction among individuals who are genetically incompatible."

"According to the researchers, not only do females place more emphasis on kissing, but most would never engage in sex without kissing. Females were more likely than males to insist on kissing before a sexual encounter, and more likely to emphasize the importance of kissing during and after sexual encounters as well. By comparison, males said they would be happy to have sex without kissing, and far more males than females expressed a willingness to have sex with someone who was not a "good" kisser."

"Males, however, were more likely than females to initiate open mouth kissing and kissing with tongue contact. The researchers speculate that the exchange of saliva during kissing may have biological consequences in its own right. Male saliva contains measurable amounts of the sex hormone testosterone which can affect libido."

Very interesting, it all makes sense now. I hold kissing to a high standard, like if I was dating someone and he fucked some other girl I would be angry and ditch the guy but if I caught him kissing some other girl, man, I would be LIVID! I would probably kick the living shit out of the guy. Kissing is really personal for me. Sex is so causal and you can really do it with anyone (as long as they are, you know, clean) because all sex really is, is a moment to release and just feel euphoric. That’s why people do it so much and with so many people, and why must murders are because we all just need a release. Kissing, your not going to kiss just anyone, because it is a bit more personal and now because of this article, it all makes sense as to why it is more personal then sex.

I’ve always said, Sex and Love never go well with one another and have nothing to do with one another.

Again, thats bible brainwashing.
