the starting point of sexual
love. And it is for that reason that the manner in which the kiss is performed is so vitally
important.
There are still young women extant who believe that babies are the result of kisses
Actually! this is a fact! And this condition exists because our parents, in the main, are
either ignorant of the methods of explaining sex to their children or are too embarrassed
to enlighten them. The result is that their children obtain their sexual information from
the streets and alleys or else remain ignorant of it and believe such things as was
mentioned above.
KISSES ARE BUT PRELUDES TO LOVE
Man and woman are born to love, marry and beget children. Woman is so physically
constituted that she is the one who bears the child. Man, on the other hand, is given the
duty of being the protector of his wife and, after they are born, of his children. Therefore,
he must always be the one who takes the initiative. He must be strong, he must be
willing, he must be physically able to take care of his charges, He must be the aggressor.
It is, therefore, necessary that the man be taller than the woman. The psychological
reason for this is that he must always give the impression of being his woman's superior,
both mentally and especially physically. The physical reason, with which we are more
concerned, is that if he is taller that his woman, he is better able to kiss her. He must be
able to sweep her into his strong arms, and tower 6ver her, and look down into her eyes,
and cup her chin in his fingers and 1 hen, bend over her face and plant his eager, virile
lips on her moist, slightly parted, inviting ones. All of this he must do with the vigor of an
assertive male. And, all of these are impossible where. the woman is the taller of the-two.
For when the situation is reversed, the kiss becomes only a ludicrous banality. The
physical mastery is gone, the male prerogative is gone, everything is gone but the fact
that two lips are touching two other lips. Nothing can be more disappointing.
PREPARING FOR THE KISS
A paragraph back, we mentioned that the woman's lips were slightly parted when she
awaited the lips of her lover. There was a reason for using this description. Always, in
any sort of kiss, just before the male's lips settle onto the lips of his partner, the female's
lips should be slightly parted. One reason for this is that cherry-red lips serve as a
charming frame for a row of gleaming, white, even teeth. The picture that confronts the
kisser is one that draws him onward. And even, months later, when he thinks back to the

nestling in their frame of-cherries.
The deliciousness of a long-remembered kiss was beautifully expressed in a poem 'called,
"Three Kisses," in which occurred the verse:
I gently raised her sweet, pure face,
Her eyes with radiant, love sight filled.
That trembling kiss I'll ne'er forget
Which both our hearts with rapture filled.
Another reason for-parting the lips is that there is a definite gratification the male obtains
from the delicious odor that emanates from his loved one's mouth. John Secundus, in
describing a kiss,. said - that !& lover's kiss was like:
"... every aromatic breeze That wafts from Africa's spicy trees;"
The odor of a woman's hair can send shivers of joy coursing up and down a man's spine.
The odor of her body can convulse him with throes of passion. Odors are as necessary to
love as is love, itself. That is why it is so essential that the lips be parted just before the
kiss. And that is why the breath should be kept always sweet and pure so that, when the
lips art opened, the breath will be like an "aromatic breeze." Sometimes it is advisable to
touch the corners of the mouth with perfume. But be certain that there is only the faintest
suggestion of an odor and no more. Another thing, lipstick is definitely out in the kiss,
because it comes off so readily. A very light coat of lipstick should be worn so that, when
it does come off, it will not serve to betray you. Similarly, the teeth should be kept
cleaned and polished. Nothing can dampen a young man's ardor, or a young woman's for
that matter, than a row of brown-stained, unkempt teeth.
