The art of kissing

By Donald The Neosapien Mokgale

I know what you are thinking, no I am no expert on the subject at all however, I know a thing or two I feel I should share which I am certain a lot of people will relate to. Travel back in time with me a little, I remember seeing two adults kiss on TV, this was actually the first time for me, on the furniture old Days Of Our Lives. The couple connected lips but proceeded to do a wave like motion while the lips were together, I had no clue what they were doing with their lips and I always wondered, until I experienced it myself eventually, quite a few times in fact leading me to the crux of this post.

Fortunately for me, the first time I kissed a girl was a very pleasant experience, it was simple and it had a flow about it there were no complicated acrobatics involved. Let’s look at the various things involved when kissing:
• Emotion/feeling – positive feelings/emotions make the whole experience more pleasant, a kiss after a mind blowing time on a date with a potential can send you flying to cloud 10, unfortunately one cannot always control this aspect but I feel that I should mention it anyway (the assumption is of course you will be in good health at least).
• Lips – the condition of one’s lips definitely affects the experience; the softness/hardness/coarseness will most likely affect the usage of the next two aspects. It is vital to have graceful lip work, it is gauche to suck on the other person’s lips as if your life depends on it. Lips are meant to dance sensually not bump into each other violently like a Mike Tyson fight. It is vital to take care of your lips; ladies not all lip glosses and lipsticks taste good, bear this in mind when prepping for your date and gents, LL Cool J may have made licking your lips look cool, but all that maltase makes the lips dry when the saliva evaporates.
• Tongue – to all my Frenchies, facile le fait. Generally speaking, you will know when to use the tongue and when you do remember to do it elegantly, based on the synergy between the two of you, do not shove the thing down the other person’s mouth as if to feed a baby or test their deep throating abilities. The tongue usage is meant to be reciprocal, tasteful and sensual. Please keep your saliva down, of course there will be some swopping but do not drown the other party, this is digusting !
• Teeth – now this one is for your more advanced kissers who know how to use teeth to create an extra sensation on the lips of the kissee, do not masticate the poor person’s lips, graze gracefully the softer portions of their lips while using the tongue to sooth it all over.

The rhythm of the kiss will be determined by the vibe between the parties involved and in all instances it is repugnant to wave your head as if you are Stevie Wonder on his keys while kissing. A kiss can determine the course of your entire relationship depending on how important it is to the other party so it is vital to be, at the very least, a decent kisser.

Okay so I have said a mouthful, hopefully you nodded your head in agreement while smiling as images of your great and horrible experiences came to mind. Kissing is truly an art and not all of us are artists naturally but we can all be trained to be. Mcwa!

    Definitely an interesting reading, i wish i could have had a few of my exes read this.hahaha…Also the biggest misconception (based on my experience of course) is that it is necessary to do the “Stevie wonder” with your head and that is repulsive to me and i from then on know that i do not want to do it again (kiss the guy).Thank you Donald!!!

    Hahahahahaha INCREDIBLE!

    I strongly agree that kissing is an art and definitely has to be pleasant, nothing worse than a rough, dry and sloppy kiss.
    Interesting to note, that alot of what you have said is true and I can identify and relate to it all.
    For me, sometimes I enjoy when my partner takes the lead so I can get use to his style. I am all for closing my eyes when kissing as well as holding or using your hands.

    Kissing is truly an art as you are completely engaged with another person’s body, from the face,lips and minds all connecting at once. You have the potential to create a perfect moment, deeper than deep.

    LOL :)
