Great Job Judith - very interesting subject. Are you requiring your student's particiapation?
Ms. Meyer,
Very interesting article. Never thought about some of these ideas.
As a diet aide to curb hunger, sure beats SlimFast! Don't think about the why's at all:)
Great blog site!
I never really ever thought about why we kiss. I always thought kissing was a sign of an emotion but who would of thought that one kiss could mean so much, or would trigger the body for such a response.
Great job! Who would have thought that kissing could send such power messages. I only thought of kissing as a symbol of togetherness,or closeness. Wow!
One kiss can determine if you will kids with this person and how far the relationship will go. Wow I never thought of it that way. It kind of makes you not want to kiss, or at least hope and pray your a great kisser. :)
I really enjoyed this especially the part where it says "Kisses can convey important information about the status and future of a relationship". Never knew that so much was involved in a kiss.
WOW! I never knew kissing does so much. I did know that a bad first kiss stops the relationship from progressing because I once stopped a relationship after a Horrible first kiss. This was a really interesting article. Thanks Ms. Meyer
WOW! I never knew kissing triggered so many different things. I did know that a first kiss cold stop a relationship because I was stopped a relationship after the first kiss it was BAD! very interesting article.
I read the article about kissing. It was very interesting. I beleive that there are many difference reasons why people kiss. Greeting one another, comfort someone, or a farewell kiss which is an expression of affection that will show people that we care.

kissing is overrated.
I never really thought of it like that. I love to kiss my boyfriend now everytime i kiss him i'm going to think about this article and mrs meyers lol like that other blog about memory and who wants to be a millonaire lol Esther Wilson

I found this article to be so informing. It made me look at kissing in a whole different light.
I did find interesting the part about kisses conveying important information about the status and future of a relationship. I found this to be totally true. I was in my late twenties and I fell in love by a first kiss. This was my third serious relationship and the first time I had ever felt this way. Still have a relationship with the same person after 15 years.
So that first kiss can hold true to their being a relationship or not. Amazing what one simple thing can do. Truly enjoyed this article.

LOL kissing is way over-rated its not in the kiss it is in the heart, now a days its not good to kiss cause you can catch stds. So the best thing to do is blow kisses and feel on each other.
I completely aggree about a bad first kiss stopping a relationship in its tracks. Who would want to keep dating someone that can't kiss?
gross! ;)

kissing is part of are daily lives and there are different kinds of kissing. but the truth is that kissing is a symbol for so much more
This is article is very interesting. I had never thought about kissing so in depth or even considered the history of it. I believe kissing can be very powerful and that from of the information in this article that some people take it a little to lightly.
