TWO KISSES.....WHY

Post by martin »

I wonder if anyone knows why it is always expected that when ever you meet a woman in Portugal you know - you have to give them two kisses...why two? and why is that the women dont ever kiss the men?

doh :oops: i forgot ! XX

Hmmmm, 3 kisses, thats dutch :D

Sorry Martin, I have to ask, is this an official complaint? If so I am on you side :P it should be way more than two. :D

Why dont they ever kiss men? Dunno, may depend on the aftershave.

Re: Mothers/fathers day - a subtle hint at who is "really" in control :lol: :wink:

In Texas (long may it wave) kissin' a Guy, or his Wife, could get someone in Serious Trouble. :lol:

Texas(long may it wave!) not like Russia then Coop?
I believe the 'men'there kiss each other on the LIPS---can you just imagine --being that close to Boris Yeltsin :!: :!:
Didnt Clinton and Schroeder(splg!) have to suffer that :roll:
Seems like Peter Bel& Eva want more than three--and why not? Whats wrong with an extra kiss or 2 or 3 or 4--or more? :) xxxx

Hey Ellie

Another admirer!! GSOH too - I am sure he is taking the micky out of himself with the 007 and 69 and the cute email address.

Appears to watch Friends also, so must be in touch with his feminine side.

A right good all rounder.

Well Mads----we'll have to see eh?
Im sure hoping 'Chris' is all male ------ Ive only ever watched 'Friends' a few times --hope he wont hold that against me :)
In touch with his feminine side eh? Does that mean you dont mind ironing your own smalls Chris? :)
Does this topic remind you of that Hot Chocolate no.--'It started with a kiss" ! :)
