Or unpopularly if the snoggers are in public.

Oh, I was kinda hopin' this article would have some points of technique...

Say, how come your names are in itallics and mine isn't???

Pointers and technique to kissing.
Spit: To much is a bad thing. I once had to wipe my nose after a particulalry slobbery kiss. It's like being liked by a dog, but then a dog doesn't really have lips so dogs can be excused. Swapping spit is a good thing, swapping drool leave no room for romance at all.
To little spit is a bad thing as well. Chapped lips add and element that denies the fleshy feel of a good kiss. Not to mention, the lack of spit also causes bad breath *scientifically proven* and can be brought on, strangley enough, by the use of mouth wash.
To test: kiss the top knuckle of your index finger, mouth open slightly dragging your lips across to pursed lips. Your knuckle should have a moist feeling, but the spit itself should be next to invisible. If you can bring your lips to a purse as they are stuck to your knuckle, you do not have enough spit.
The kisser should pick one lip, top or bottom, to kiss. If bottom lip, you should suck the lip into your mouth, gently. This kind of a kiss can then be brought to nibbling the bottom lip, or in cases of intercourse, biting. If top lip, the kisee can then suck on your bottom lip.
This is the basic romantic kiss.
I have more pointers, but this subject is making me feel very lonely right now. If you have any more questions, just ask and I will continue with other forms and pointers.
