You see kissing as something fun, playful, and relaxed. You look for partners who are easygoing and extroverted like you, but you don’t need a lot of fuss when it comes to kissing. All you need is the right person and a place the two of you enjoy, and you’re ready to lock lips. Whether it’s at a baseball game or during your favorite show, kissing for you is an act of relaxed intimacy between you and someone special.
-harhar. Natakdan ko Mara sa mga personality quizzes over the Internet. And maybe some far-out one-page feature in one of the Cebu dailies on kissing.
Which reminds me. Jef, Verna and I, with Jef's 19-year old younger brother Jake, were eating at Ayala last night, and we were talking about France. Which of course led to the topic French kissing. Verna said that the French refer to it as an English kiss.
So this leads to the question, why is it called a French kiss? Does anyone know? Tell me what you think.

Sheesh... the eccentricities of language. Di-mabangbang!
Sige ra gud. Be like Butch Dalisay always dissecting the etymology of a word. Latin ikaw ba yan.
Hmmm. Unsa kaha ang Latin root word for kiss.
Why is it called a French kiss? Haha, researched that for a story. The term was coined in the 1920s. The Americans, if I remember correctly, hated the French. It was sort of a derogatory term for high-passion-sexy time, since people back then thought that the French are morally, er, decrepit people.
That ends today's lecture, :p
yey, thanks sash. =D
