There’s another very famous celebratory kiss the false feminists are not amused with:  V-J Day, Aug. 14, 1945, in Times Square.  Sailor George Mendonsa, thrilled he wouldn’t have to return to the Pacific, reclined Greta Zimmer Friedman and planted a huge smacker on her lips. 

The iconic picture is emblazoned in America’s cultural consciousness, almost as evocative as the Flag Raising at Iwo Jima.

Like the Rubiales-Hermoso soccer kiss, it was celebratory, not romantic. Though Greta did not give her consent, George chose to smooch with her partly because she was nearby, and partly because her attire reminded him of the nurses who cared so compassionately for our troops and sailors. In fact, she was a dental assistant who said, “It wasn’t my choice to be kissed.” Oh well, at least she didn’t ruminate in feminist furor.

One day someone is going to have to say:

“Kiss my *ss”

Men can go too far and I am no exception but mature adults know how to deal with this in ways other than those happening in this matter.

The world is increasingly intoxicated and immature with all kinds of things including legalized marijuana.

So we are here in the Twilight Zone.

Maybe it’s ok in Europe to kiss a non-spouse on this lips…

…but around here, that’ll earn you a black eye (at least)

The way the Soviets cheered things like the Soviet Union Military Parades was to just stand there and glare at the parade. That’s what coming in the RATs new world communist utopia. Don’t let the excitement get you carried away.

The Soccer Federation President and soccer player or coworkers.

Let’s see if it ruins your professional life if you walked up to a coworker and kissed that coworker on the lips.

If he had kissed another man, he would have been hailed a hero.

What a perverted world we live in.

It doesn’t look like a big deal to me, maybe because I’m used to the Italian greeting with a kiss on the cheek. Some people (not I) greet with a kiss on the lips.
