Kissing?
#21
RE: Kissing?
Wikipedia says:
- anthropologists are divided as to whether kissing is intuitive/instinctual or derived from kiss-feeding as noted above;
- kissing is referenced in Sanskrit, Sumerian and Egyptian texts but did not really get to Europe until Alexander the Great; the Romans then spread it all over the friggin world;
- that being said, Romantic/sexual kissing (as opposed to affectionate kissing) is pretty new (within the last couple of centuries);
- in many countries, kissing (especially in public, but not always specified) is a crime; in India, it is technically an offense carrying a penalty of three months in prison (high courts often overrule convictions but it can be used by local governments to harass);
- kissing involves 146 muscles and is associated with brief physiological that are good for the heart and lungs.

Don't worry, my friend.  If this be the end, then so shall it be.
