kissing

Roofshadow and I have been talking kissing: how beautiful (and nerve-wracking) it can be, and about the idea that kissing is where the real intimacy in sex is found. Of course there are movies that spell out this idea: Pretty Woman, and one we both love so much - French Kiss.

What's your take on kissing? Is it really where the intimacy is? Would you kiss a stranger, and why or why not? Do you like kissing for kissing's sake, or is it just a means to an end? Are you a good kisser, and if so, how do you know? Setting aside oral sex for a moment, where is your favourite other place on the body to kiss, apart from the lips? To receive a kiss? What, if anything, can you tell from a first kiss? Any good kissing stories?

My own answers? Hmmm...I asked you first. ^_~ (But I will answer later.)
