Why Do We Kiss?

As a romance reader and writer, kissing is obviously something I spend a lot of time thinking about. Even the tamest romance novel has to at least end with a kiss (although I recently reread a series romance novel I'd read and enjoyed when I was rather young and was surprised to find that the hero and heroine merely held hands at the end. And no, that did not work for me anymore).

Still, despite the less than satisfying book mentioned above, there's clearly a lot of kissing going on in books, but more importantly, in the world at large. So...how did all of that get started? Why kissing? Well, Hank Green from Scishow explores those questions and more in the video below.

Sherry, I'm glad you enjoyed it. I'm a big fan of SciShow and the Vlog Brothers (Hank and John Green).
