One of my students wrote the following for her communications class and I found it very interesting: (Thank you Sophy!!!)
Philematology, listening to this word you might think it is a science of some sort, but actually it is the scientific name for kissing. My speech today is to introduce my fellow classmate to the benefits of kissing. There are over 20 different kissing styles, for example, buzzing, cheek, Eskimo, French, hickey, teaser, and vacuum. Daniel Heinsius once said, “You may conquer with the sword, but you are conquered by a kiss.”
Kissing has many benefits that people do not acknowledge. It helps prevent tooth decay. Dr. Peter Gorden, Dental Advisor at the British Dental Association, explains. “After eating, your mouth is full of sugar solution and acidic saliva, which cause plaque build up. Kissing is nature's own cleaning process, it stimulates saliva flow and brings plaque levels down to normal.”
It also relieves tension. A passionate kiss is a great relaxation technique, says stress consultant, Michelle Kay McNabb. “When your mouth is in a kissing position, you are almost smiling and as our emotions and body language are so closely linked, it's almost impossible to smile and feel tense at the same time," she explains. "Also, your breathing becomes deeper and your eyes close when you kiss; that's what you do when you relax. It's a perfect way to shut out the world."
It helps you lose weight. You need to burn 3,000 calories to lose one pound, in a simple kiss can burn up to 10 calorie a minute and in a passionate one 26 calories per minute. A long kiss makes the metabolism burn up sugar faster than usual; the calories burned depend on the intensity of the kiss. The editors of Environmental Nutrition—a leading newsletter of food, nutrition, and health—have just launched their new "kissing diet," Kissing Diet recommends a group of five amusing kisses that it believes may help people lose weight, and add delight to any relationship. On average, a kiss will shed about nine calories per smack. But some kisses can shed more than 300, depending on the enthusiasm of the dieters. This light diet also requires its followers to couple their kissing routines with at least two romantic interludes in the bedroom per week, in order to make the diet effective in shedding at least nine pounds per year.
Additionally, it slows the aging process. Kissing helps to tone your cheek and jaw muscles, so they're less likely to sag. Men who kiss their spouses every morning before going to work live 5 years longer than those who do not practice this frequently. It is proven that increases fitness levels. Your heart is pumping, your pulse is racing...If the kiss is exciting you release adrenaline into the bloodstream and your heart pumps more blood around your body. It's a great cardiovascular workout.
Statistically, it has been shown that women prefer to kiss: 39% - military men, 37% - lawyers, 27% - accountants, 14% - sportsmen. On average, a woman kisses about 79 men before getting married. Each next generation begin their “kissing experience” earlier than the former one. 70 % of young people from 16 to 24 years old have had their first kiss by the time they are 15, while only 46 % of their parents had such an experience.
So remember kissing can be highly romantic, building to a succulent crescendo of emotion and passion or passed off as something that is expected and therefore no big deal. Furthermore, when love is present, kissing is an important part of expressing that love. Pay attention to it. Breathe. Relax. Slow down. Concentrate and engage the electricity in your body. Ingrid Bergman once said, "A kiss is a lovely trick designed by nature to stop speech when words become superfluous."
