The Art of KISSING



Well, I saw this in the magazine today and wish to share~!!

Your lips have a hundred times as many nerve endings as your fingertips. This explains why things can get hot and heavy after a particularly good kiss!!

It turns out that kissing isn't just about intimacy and romance. If you're trying to lose weight, smooch more. It is widely agreed that a 60 second kiss burns about 26 calories.

Kissing is so popular that an entire branch of study is dedicated to it. The science of kissing is known as philematology.

"I married the first man I ever kissed. When I tell my children that, they just about throw up." Barbara Bush

Couples may transfer an average of 9mg of water, 0.7mg of protein, 0.18mg of organic matter, 0.71mg of fat and 0.45mg of salt with each kiss.

A french kiss moves about 29 muscles in the face.

The average person spends 20,160 minutes kissing in their lifetimes.
