How to Kiss Someone Passionately. A demonstration filled with skill and humor.
I found the humour limited. But the girl was fruity.

Yeah, I watched several and they were funny and annoying in about equal measure. But the girl is hot. She also reminded me of my ex-wife, which, you know, makes me pathetic. I'll go shoot myself now.
The "How to be the Perfect Girlfriend" was pretty accurate, though.

Don't shoot yourself, EB. We like you. We like you just the way you are.

I personally found it hilarious, partly because I dated a guy who broke every one of those on a regular basis. Every single one. The man seemed to think I loved his tongue as much as he loved onions.

I get bored after about seven seconds of kissing. And that's when I'm watching two women doing it. When I have to kiss, I'm bored even before I start. You could say that I'm not the most romantic guy when it comes to kissing.
You know how many words the Eskimos have for kissing? They don't. That's because ESKIMOS ROCK.

If eskimos kiss, they may have to be separated surgically.

And did you tell him otherwise? Most women I've kissed enjoy tongue gymnastics and are eager to compete, but I've kissed one girl who seemed repulsed to her very core by the mere notion that I actually had a tongue. There was nothing on the surface that I could tell to distinguish her from the others, yet - alas! - I poorly guessed her preference one night, and I turned her off to me pretty effin' quick. How was I to know?

Yes. And he was also quick to remind me that the other girls he'd been involved with in the past (and present, it turned out) hadn't minded.
He... um... kept a list which named every girl he'd slept with and what she was into. Bad kissing technique was the least of his issues, is what I'm sayin'.

I French-kissed one girl and she freaked out, saying she thought that "that kind of kissing" (like it was some sort of unusual fetish) "is reserved for people who are engaged." And that was pretty much the end of that.

Re: How to be the perfect girlfriend . . . .
A witty female friend of mine once said, upon hearing the old adage "the path to a man's heart is through his stomach," replied "I know a shortcut."
And it ain't beer.
Funny stuff.

Do you know how many words Eskimos have for snot? None. Because they just use one of their words for snow. I think it is the one for what non-Eskimos call packing snow. They use it because they don't have snowball fights since there is no point in hitting the girl you like right in the face with a snowball when all you can delusionally hope for is to get a snotty nose rub.

I thought when you got engaged is when you get to finally give up on the kissing already.

No, no, you dirty minded people. I meant . . . . picking out silverware.
I didn't even know people got "engaged" anymore. It's so quaint.

Sarah Coyle's the name of the woman in these vids, eh? Has she done other things? She's talented and the camera is very kind to her.
The term "love bites" used to be "hickeys" How come that fell out of favor? Is it racist in some way that I never heard about?
Back when I was a smoker, I could only kiss other smokers, which at the time didn't seem like much of a problem. If she liked how I kissed, she stuck around. If she didn't, or if I didn't, that was on more than one occasion pretty much the deal breaker. The real test is when the two people are comfortable enough with one another to talk it out.
If you don't like your partner doing X, tell the person, otherwise they won't know. And of course that's a two way street. If the two of you can't take directions on a simple kiss with one another, raising a kid's gonna be pretty much impossible without heavy artillery and lawyers.
I like the one about How to be the perfect boyfriend.
1. Listen to her (pretend to be interested. make up responses if she finds out you lost interest)
2. Love her friends and family (remember their names. pretend you like them.)
3. Be a man (unless she's gay, in which case, be a lesbian)
4. In the bedroom (be Elvis Presley, Bruce Springsteen, and Aerosmith)
5. Suprise her (this is where women tend to cost men a lot of money)
6. Be hygenic (don't fart. don't smell. in other words, don't be a man)
7. Be faithful (they spent the least amount of time on the last one. must not be very important)

My first kiss happened to be from an overly eager boy who instantly decided an overwhelming, wretched French kiss would be the way to go. Wretched as in I almost threw up because he stuck his tongue so far down my throat- literally. And yes, he knew it was my first kiss.
After it was finally over, I walked into my house and nearly swore off kissing for good if that was what it was going to be like.

They were always called love bites when I was a kid (in Ireland). I think this may be one of those US vs UK things? My last name is Hickey so I hear a lot of the same jokes over ... and over ... again now I live in North America.
