Kissing
Researchers predict we will spend about 20,160 minutes of our lives engaging in kissing. Kissing produces the same hormone in our body that firing a gun does. IT burns up to 26 calories a minute, helps reduce tooth decay, and half of the population tries by the time they are 14. Kissing is far more than a simple science. Just as no two people are alike, so are no two kisses alike. Like snowflakes, each one is different from the one before and the one after. Kissing dad and grandma signifies familial affection. Kissing the rings of kings and popes and mafia lords illustrates reverence. And while kissing can also symbolize betrayal (Judas) and transformation (that lucky frog prince), it's watching our favorite actors smooch in the movies that shows off kissing at its best.
