:::Thanks for feedback, all of you. So is there now a consensus towards moving this to the article page? [[User:Sideways|Sideways]] 17:23, 30 August 2008 (EDT)

::::I am throwing in my support too. A lot of these sensitive topics can have family-friendly pages if they're written carefully, which I think the proposed text does very well. I especially thought the part about kissing in different cultures was handled well. In some cultures (I'm thinking France) - they think hugging is really intimate but a kiss on the cheeks ("le bees" is what they call it?) is just a normal greeting for friends and completely not erotic. -[[User:Foxtrot|Foxtrot]] 19:32, 30 August 2008 (EDT)

While i know this is for Americans, it would be apprpriate to add words like "In the United states, kissing on the lips means..." Russian men kiss on the lips and are not homosexual. Islamic men (from some countries, forgive me for not knowing which) kiss on the lips or cheeks. I'd hate to think some 16 year old assumes the president of Russia or President Bush are gay because they kissed eachother. (not that I think this has ever happened, but...)--[[User:MHayes|MHayes]] 16:29, 30 August 2008 (EDT)

:Thanks for the feedback. I've made a couple of slight changes to the text in response. See [http://www.conservapedia.com/index.php?title=Talk%3AKissing&diff=507536&oldid=507504 here] for how I've reworded that paragraph. If you want to make further changes to it yourself, go ahead - just put a short note here summarising any changes. I'm hoping that this can now soon be set up as a proper article.
