Why do we kiss?

We're obviously programmed to have sex but why the kissing?

As far as I know, it's a universal thing so it can't be cultural too.

I was just pondering that it's funny that when you find a person attractive, you naturally want to stick your face on theirs, as opposed to rubbing ankles for example.

Anyone know why?

    Putting your mouth on something is a way of showing that you are not a threat, its a way of being close. It does really come from our ape ancestry, where our mothers would clean us using their mouths. It's a way of recreating that intimacy.

    All animals do it, not just us. When our cat knows he's been naughty and wants to say sorry he'll come and lick our hands.

    Also why it's nice to have your hair stroked. Picking nits out of another apes hair is another sign of affection :)

    I love this, I wish every day that I was a monkey so I could show affection to my other half in this way without seriously disturbing him.

    As for kissing, I've never really questioned why... I just do it, a lot. :heart: the kissing.

    Hehe. I can't tell if you're being serious but now you come to mention it I DO love ankle rubbing... secretly while in public and also when lying in bed. Under tables it's very covert and always a challenge to see how high you can get your foot :naughty:

    Ankles are very sexy, they're the new T & A I swear ;)

    The best part of the kiss when kissing a person for the first time, is the little time fraction shortly before it comes to the actual kiss.

    When I was visiting the fair lady from thesite in london we were sitting plastered on her sofa (it was night and rainy) and I we were kinda leaning on each other... It was almost agony the 'waiting' until it would happen. Seemed like she was waiting on it, because I was focused on my hands streaking up and down her thigh. when I looked up it was maybe a 0.001 second where our eyes met and we both knew instantly to close in for the kill...

    sorry to get all soppy on you, *sigh* :yeees:

    Because kissing leads to the aforementioned sex, and all the foreplay in between :thumb: :lol:

    I like kissing in the morning after a heavy night of drinking before I brush my teeth.
    I'm actually not a huge fan of kissing. Its alright, but nothing too special.
