I’m addicted to read something in the Wikipedia everyday and my hobby is to follow the most strange link in an article. So I stumbled about this masterpiece about ‘Tongue kiss – redirected from French kiss’. Here are some snippets for you:
Because of the intimacy associated with it, in many regions of the world tongue kissing in public is not acceptable to most, particularly in the case of extended duration. See: public display of affection.
Another milestone in the history of encyclopedias.
It is known colloquially as tongue wrestling, tonsil hockey and, in the United Kingdom, snogging or getting off (the latter of which is slang for experiencing an orgasm in American slang)
So British kissing equals American orgasm. America, here I come! (Pun intended.)
The term has been attributed to the French’s more open views on cunnilingus and oral sex in general (see soixante-neuf/sixty-nine), as the two acts are similar.
Similar? As peeling potatoes is similar to circumcission?
The only other species besides Homo sapiens that engages in tongue kissing is the Bonobo (Pan paniscus or Homo arboreus)
Thanks, now I got a gross image for my nightmares to work with…
