Kissing. Why is there so much news about this act we all do every day and have done for time out of mind? We don't know; we just report.http://www.newser.com/2008 - Newseren-usNewser Feed GeneratorThu, 20 Nov 2008 4:00:21 CSThttp://www.newser.com/story/28787/lesbian-liplock-sparks-stadium-pda-dispute.html?refid=rss_all_defaultThe Seattle Mariners' response to a fan complaint has set off a dispute about gay rights and public displays of affection. A Safeco Field employee told a lesbian couple they had to either stop kissing in the stands or leave the game, KOMO TV reports. One of the women says the kiss was a peck on the lips, but security received a report of "groping and making out," the team tells the Post-Intelligencer.http://www.newser.com/story/28787/lesbian-liplock-sparks-stadium-pda-dispute.html?refid=rss_all_defaultFri, 30 May 2008 13:03:07 CDThttp://www.newser.com/story/28697/jeffs-photos-used-to-bolster-custody-case.html?refid=rss_all_defaultIt was an obvious stunt by Texas child services: entering photos of Warren Jeffs kissing two "child brides" in a custody hearing for a newborn. Reeling from an appeals court ruling that they failed to show that 450 children were at risk, officials wanted to hype the "pervasive" abuse at Yearning for Zion. No surprise. The surprise, writes Rebecca Walsh in the Salt Lake Tribune, was that the young parents whose newborn was at issue actually helped the state's case.http://www.newser.com/story/28697/jeffs-photos-used-to-bolster-custody-case.html?refid=rss_all_defaultFri, 30 May 2008 13:04:32 CDThttp://www.newser.com/story/26779/madge-reprises-lesbian-kiss.html?refid=rss_all_defaultMadonna revived a rare classic last night—and it wasn't a song. During a performance in Paris to promote new album Hard Candy , the Material Girl, 49, grabbed a female backup dancer for an on-stage lip-lock, reprising a headline-grabbing steamy stunt with Britney Spears during a 2003 MTV awards show, the Daily Mail reports.http://www.newser.com/story/26779/madge-reprises-lesbian-kiss.html?refid=rss_all_defaultWed, 07 May 2008 15:29:42 CDThttp://www.newser.com/story/23261/quickies-are-the-way-to-go.html?refid=rss_all_defaultSize may or may not matter when it comes to sex, but length (of time) definitely does, reports the AP. A recent survey of sex therapists reveals that 3-13 minutes is ideal. One researcher wanted to refute the notion that "more of something good is better, and if you really want to satisfy your partner, you should last forever."http://www.newser.com/story/23261/quickies-are-the-way-to-go.html?refid=rss_all_defaultFri, 04 Apr 2008 18:37:41 CDThttp://www.newser.com/story/76817/americans-learn-the-global-art-of-the-cheek-kiss.html?refid=rss_all_defaultShake hands? Kiss? Or kiss-kiss-kiss?This is the quandary for Frank Higgins, one of today's global business soldiers. He is employed in Glendale, Calif., by Swiss-owned Nestlé USA Inc. as president of two divisions, one of which markets to Hispanics.

Outraged Hindus held rallies and burned Gere in effigy after he planted a few kisses on Shilpa Shetty at an AIDS awareness rally. "The case brings a bad name to the country," a justice from the country's Supreme Court said.http://www.newser.com/story/21635/india-lifts-gere-kiss-warrant.html?refid=rss_all_defaultSat, 29 Mar 2008 9:51:19 CDThttp://www.newser.com/story/21199/lame-duck-sings-swan-song-for-press.html?refid=rss_all_defaultTwo years after Stephen Colbert stunned the Washington press corps by not just roasting but slamming the guest of honor at the Gridiron dinner, this year's dinner wasn't televised. But a bootleg of President Bush's swan song promptly appeared on YouTube. He performs “Auld Lang Syne” and joins hands with—and then kisses—Helen Thomas.http://www.newser.com/story/21199/lame-duck-sings-swan-song-for-press.html?refid=rss_all_defaultSat, 29 Mar 2008 9:51:19 CDThttp://www.newser.com/story/18997/lovefest-film-puts-putin-in-romantic-light.html?refid=rss_all_defaultA warm and fuzzy Russian movie about a politician's rise to the Kremlin, released today for Valentine's Day, bears more than a passing resemblance to Russian President Vladimir Putin, CNN reports. "It's a film about the life of a politician, about love, and the relationships every person has," gushed the producer of The Kiss Is Off the Record.http://www.newser.com/story/18997/lovefest-film-puts-putin-in-romantic-light.html?refid=rss_all_defaultSat, 29 Mar 2008 9:51:19 CDThttp://www.newser.com/story/18714/put-your-honey-where-your-mouth-is.html?refid=rss_all_defaultFrom a peck on the cheek to "get a room"-level PDA, kissing is everywhere, but for an activity common to almost every culture, it's remarkably underscrutinized, reports the Washington Post . One study of college student kissers found that men see kissing mostly as a precursor to sex, while women pay careful attention to taste and smell, possibly using kissing to assess potential mates.http://www.newser.com/story/18714/put-your-honey-where-your-mouth-is.html?refid=rss_all_defaultSat, 29 Mar 2008 9:51:19 CDT
