Kissing is good for you.
Another one of those kooky studies...
Research showed a "long and passionate kiss" lowered blood pressure and cholesterol levels, reducing the risk of a stroke.The study team concluded that kissing released a large quantity of bacteria, stimulating the production of antibodies which fight off infections.
And kissing is also good for keeping your face fit as it uses 25 facial muscles.
But the majority of men questioned in the study, carried out in Germany and Austria, said they felt kissing was "more of a duty and obligation".
Women said they "considered it far more intimate and of a higher value than sex itself".
What? Who are these people sleeping with?

heh.
i think the generations of women over 50 or so generally weren't told they should like sex. so maybe they just don't try. some did get the message that sex can be quite nice, and thank goodness, they passed it on to us whippersnappers. but still, some young women are being told it's better to be "innocent" (that's the way their husbands want them) than to figure out what works and be sexually satisfied.
if your husband is having orgasms and all you're getting is a mouthful of bacteria, ladies, you're being cheated.
Obviously with the men who feel that kissing is "more of a duty and obligation." If he doesn't get off on kissing, how much fun can he possibly be in the sack?
Oh Jami, what a load of old pish-tosh, what you think ... your generation invented sex ... we were the first generation liberated by the pill. It would appear other generations are so hung-up on clitoral stimulation they miss the point. What a waste!
Most of my generation, in my country at least, have it anywhere and everywhere and go off with a proverbial BANG! The ones who are really screwed-up are between 31-40, there is an entire age bracket out there who wouldn't know what an orgasm was if it blew their brain out!
Sex is like food the stuff of life: breakfast, lunch, dinner and all the snacks in between.
"If he doesn't get off on kissing, how much fun can he possibly be in the sack?"
Quite a lot, actually. I've never enjoyed kissing much, but I know damned well that I can keep a woman more than happy in bed. Really, it has nothing to do with how much you enjoy kissing so much as how much you're willing to let yourself be absorbed in the other person. This goes for both sexes. The best lays I've ever had were the ones that could shut their fucking brains up for the time that we were fucking and just enjoy it.
Hey, I'm 50! No one EVER told me I shouldn't like sex. That's not even true of women MY mom's age. Some cultural groups may do that, but many don't and never have.
