The Boylet Chronicles - Do's and Don'ts Part 2 - The Kissing Game

Any self-respecting, dating girl will tell you, it's all about the kiss. Relationships - permanent or otherwise, have been made or broken by kisses. Literally. Despite all the crap women have been served, we still subscribe to the fairy tale that there's this magical kiss that tells us he's the one.

Clueless men will ask - what's all the big fuss about kissing? If the objective is sex, does one need to bother with the preliminaries? If a man thinks that way, it's a wonder how he manages to hook up in the first place - unless he looks like hunky Papa P that he could get away on looks alone.

Evolutionary psychologists suggest that kissing as a mating behavior started as a way to test potential partners' immune system. In short, our salivas are supposed to contain neurochemicals that are tested if we're compatible with each other, not to mention if we're healthy and fertile. If that's the case, won't saliva exchange be enough? Why go through all the myth that kissing is magic if it's just a neurochemical reaction?

Well, if kissing's going to be SOP (standard operating procedure) in preliminary mating rituals, we might as well wring all the pleasure we could from the act. Besides, nature also added a lot of nerve endings in our lips so might as well enjoy it.

But I have kissed some guys and the chemistry was all there and it didn't lead anywhere ... then again, I have kissed guys and it was bland and it did not lead anywhere else.

girl, that's because you're like a fertility goddess. Evolutionary biology might say that's because your genes are topnotch that's why the chemistry is there for a lot of guys. But I think you just have to enjoy kissing a lot of frogs before finding the prince. =)
