To think snogging is weird?

Who ever thought ; "I know lets show our attraction to each other by licking each other's tongues a bit?"

Weirdos

Also - do people still say snogging?

We say snogging.
Or sometimes my dp will ask me if I fancy a quick 'neck on' when the kids aren't around Smile
we love it

SalemSaberhagen · 30/04/2016 20:45

Put and around the words you want to strike through Lulu.

DP is a wonderful snogger! I could snog him for hours, I love it.

SovietKitsch · 30/04/2016 20:47

We say snogging, and we love snogging! But don't snog at random times, only as a pre-curser to, and during sex because once we snog we can't stop

"I've often wondered how us humans decided it was a sexy thing to do confused"

One theory is that it's do with how some mothers used to feed their babies from mouth to mouth (still happens in some places).

"I don't know what to do with my tongue really or where to move my head. "

This is me. What am I supposed to do with my tongue? I think once you overthink it, it becomes impossible.

ClaudiaApfelstrudel · 30/04/2016 20:53

I liiiike it!

PookyHook · 30/04/2016 20:54

I don't like kissing at all. I never have. DH and I have a great marriage and a good sex life, but I just don't like kissing. I don't mind a quick peck and I don't mind a little bit of kissing in the middle of sex, but that's it.

When I was a teenager and everyone was trying to get as many snogs as they could I was totally mystified as to how anyone could enjoy it.

cheapskatemum · 30/04/2016 20:56

Snogging is French kissing! In teenage years you could ask, "Frenchie, or normal?"
before the first one. I'm a fan, very sexy if done well.

ProfessorPickles · 30/04/2016 20:56

I've never done it because I don't know how Blush
I remember at school everyone made a HUGE deal about it and everyone would be telling everyone else how good or bad the other person was at it, it terrifies me and ever since I have a mental block. It was called 'getting off' when I was at school, sounds terrible. So they'd say "did you get off with him?! Was it good?"

ProfessorPickles · 30/04/2016 20:56

Terrified*

"I've often wondered how us humans decided it was a sexy thing to do "

I think this ALL THE TIME
How did this practice evolve for a start
and then how did snogging survive through medieval times when everyone had pus filled gobs full of abscesses?

I like kissing, with lips! tongues you can keep -for using somewhere else

frumpet · 30/04/2016 21:06

A really good snog is better than actual sex Grin

Lets break the act of intercourse down , now that's noisy , messy and some positions get the weird vote Wink

Do you think the first ever people to have sex had a conversation like - "I wonder if that would fit in there?"

noCanapes it's probably where the saying every holes a goal came from [hmm, Grin

EBearhug · 30/04/2016 21:56

I was out with some friends and their then-13yo asked what French kissing was. On being told, he exclaimed, "ugh! That's so unhygienic!" I've often wondered if he still thinks it (they emigrated, so we don't meet these days.)

Technically, he's correct, but a good snog is heavenly.

Sandbrook · 30/04/2016 21:56

I would have thought that when you snog someone for so long they get better at it if you're good at it iykwim.
So how can a DH still be a bad kisser if you do it right, surely you match after a while no?

Sandbrook · 30/04/2016 22:00

Whoops hadn't finished talking! Bad phone!

I remember having a snog in my 20s with this man who was like a washing machine, lots of tongue in and whooshing around till we were both dribbling Confused
I slowed it right down and lessened the tongue and he started to match my movements Blush

Wagglebees · 30/04/2016 22:23

First boyfriend was an amazing snogger. We were about 14 so they were 10 minute long snogs. Full body tingles the entire time. Proper A* jobs. Met up with him again years later and attempted to sleep together once and once only because it was awful. Really, really bad sex that I we gave up on half way through.

Next BF, pretty bad awkward kisser. Clumsy, too self conscious, D-. But fantastic in bed.

So the theory that good kissing equals good sex isn't true ime.

Wagglebees · 30/04/2016 22:26

Grin at 'getting off'. Yes!

"No way, she got off with Deano last night at Macca's 18th!"

"oh my god, do you reckon they did it?" Shock

NewLife4Me · 30/04/2016 22:38

There's only one thing better than actual snogging and that's telling dd we're going to snog she soon disappears. If she's not quick enough we start laughing and making slurping snogging noises, she hates it and says she's never having a boyfriend because you have to have sex and snog. Grin

Sometimes she'll talk about a boy and then she remembers the snogging bit Grin
Oh to be twelve. If this isn't enough she has 2 grown up brothers.

You dirty mare.

Gileswithachainsaw · 30/04/2016 22:47

Yanbu. logically it is weird.

however when done right......

I used to love kissing. proper long sessions that left you barely able to breathe after...

I miss those days

Quietattheback · 30/04/2016 22:55

I like the term Pashing but it is best with minimal tongues and zero slobbering imo.

DH is a terrible kisser. He has improved a bit through some coaching but then he gets over enthusiastic and slobbery, yuck.

I miss pashing.

PollyPerky · 30/04/2016 23:02

If you think that's weird, what about licking each other's genitals? or having a peniss put in your vagina?

Folks do all kinds of odd things, don't they?

LogicalThinking · 30/04/2016 23:25

I love a good snog. I find it a huge turn on - fortunately so does DH.

MargotLovedTom · 30/04/2016 23:39

I've never snogged anyone with a full beard and tash. Don't you have all that hair getting in the way, and end up feeling like you've been scrubbed like a dirty pan? Stubble rash is bad but I'm guessing a beard is softer? But still - does all the hair not detract from the lip to lip thing?
