Why Do We Kiss? by LIC3ion(m): 5:13pm On Sep 23, 2014
Humans have been kissing one another for thousands of years. But is smooching more science than art, more biological than poetry?
Little wonder, Mae West said "A man's kiss is his signature". Kissing varies from romantic kiss, social kiss, the air kiss, affection kiss, familial ties to deep respect kiss.
The ancient Romans were big on romantic kissing, but the Greeks viewed kissing as a way to pay homage or give social recognition. In Biblical times, washing and kissing another's feet was considered a gesture of humility and respect.
Humans have been kissing for many reasons- for a very long time. But where did the custom come from and why exactly do we do it?
Why are people attracted to the lips of other people?

Passionate kisses elevate your blood pressure and cause your heart to beat faster, getting you more excited
as a result of several nerves in the lips grin

Calm and gentle kiss is a good way of showing passionate love

Kissing someone you love tastes awkwardly good



And lastly, when you ask a woman a question and she lied, the next she's gonna do is give you a kiss...it's call "masking lie kiss*
They all do it!

Kissing began in the days of the bible.

I was actually asking about pre-colonial sub-saharan african culture.

Do you think our immediate ancestors kissed one another as a form of greeting or sign of affection?

Well undecided undecided
I should think so.
Maybe not in the way that we've modified it.
Maybe they weren't so open about it either.

Buh Ty, it's the 21st century bro.
People change
Things Change.

One question, D'ya think our ancestors wore Jeans?
Precolonial times?

Why do we wear it now?

Kissing is a normal thing....So far as it is between two people that admire and understand each other...

I see no reason why two people in a relationship should not kiss....It is a normal thing....
