We find ourselves assuming that we know everything about the French kiss almost to a T, only to wake up and actually think more about it. What does this sexual encounter mean in terms of intensity and emotional appeal? Is it nothing more than mere lust, or does it have its deeper meaning and more complex background associated with the human relationship?
As it turns out, the so-called simple thing is in fact a well-orchestrated dynamic between perceptions, neural reactions and emotional affiliation.
The Tongue: Big Head and Little Head
The tongue appears to be very ordinary at the first glance, however, it is one of the most complicated and competent structures of the human body. It is made of eight super supple muscles and is directly connected to regions that lead to delight and feeling and thus it is critical in the way we experience taste, touch, and emotional inclination.
Tongue is a delicate, but very potent messenger during a kiss. It is more than contact, it triggers a flow of neural activity which directly goes into the brain. This makes a French kiss to be more than a mere physical activity; it makes haste to become emotionally charged, even changeful.
Why this Kind of Kiss Makes such an Impression
French kiss is a kiss that allows vulnerability unlike a casual kiss on the cheek or a peck on the lips. It is a physical show of trust and intimacy – a form of communication by saying nothing, but “I am trusting you.”
This kind of kiss has a rhythm to it, there is an unspoken choreography to it, where one partner reacts to the other. Such an emotional and physical matching is not the ordinary thing, so a recollection of these kisses usually follows us much longer than we might have thought.
What Really Goes On in Your Body when French Kissing?
Amazingly a whole lot is very much going on than you can imagine. Here is the stuff behind the scenes:
In the brain: Bank parts that are related to pleasure, memory as well as emotional connection get stimulated strongly, which is also one of the reasons that a really good kiss is remembered.
Oxytocin Release: also known as the cuddle hormone oxytocin fosters feelings of trust, intimacy and emotional security.
Physical Reaction: There is an acceleration of your heart rates and breathing and your body enters a state of relaxed increased arousal.
Immune Sharing: Saliva swapping is intimate and not only that, since you also learn to resist new illnesses, with which your bodies are unfamiliar, through each other (as in a small scale, biological exchange).
More Than Romance- A Ritual of reunification
The French kiss can be a positive kind of reconnection especially to couples. Neither drama nor seduction, it is rather reflective and appreciative moment that says simply, and yet powerfully, that we are still here, together.
Even a spontaneous kiss when one is making dinner or when watching a movie can revive the closeness. It is these little moments in common that usually mean more than the grandiose things – as intimacy lies in little things.
The Golden Rules on How to Make the Most of It
A kiss can be spontaneous, yet some simple habits can make an experience to both of them become more pleasant:
Around 80 percent of people say that bad breath is their biggest turnoff. Brushing your teeth and gargling mouthwash is not only a health practice it is also a matter of respect and courtesy.
– Mutual Consent: A kiss can only be a magic when both parties desire it. Listen to body languages and signs.
Accommodate to one another: one would like tender and slow passages; the other would prefer daring energy. It is neither of the right way, it is just mutual understanding.
A language of Kissing 101; It Speaks volumes
A kiss is the best kind of touch that is possible. It is a period of communication, shared emotion, ‘understanding without words’. A French kiss does not only bring together the lips- it can rather bring together the hearts, memories and the minds.
