Kissing

A Brief History Of The Kiss  

A long time ago, scientists proclaimed that people found kissing pleasurable because when the two lips met during kissing, an electric current was generated. 

We now know this to be completely untrue but new studies have shown that when two people embrace, hormones are released into the blood stream which immediately induces a sense of euphoria when you feed on the sweetness of your mouth.

On a final note, let me stress that kissing does not merely involve the lips! A real kiss makes use of the tongue, that sensuous organ you can use to delightfully explore the inner reaches of her mouth.

*The average person will spend an estimated 20,160 min kissing in their lifetime.

*Kissing helps reduce tooth decay because the extra saliva helps clean out your mouth

*You burn 26 calories in a one minute kiss.

*Kissing releases the same neurotransmitters (chemical messengers in the brain) as those that are released when you engage in intense exercise such as running a marathon or skydiving. This causes your heart to beat faster and your breathing to become deep and irregular.

*Our brains have special neurons that help us find each others lips in the dark
