Last time we had this thread, I posted this video. I still stand by the fact this is VERY VERY weird.
Not very likely to be a parent then, are you.
The pictures of the mams with their baby daughters are cute. Pictures of old dads with their teenage daughters are weird.
(this is a “small child cannot be parent” joke, not the other reading)
Our baby tries to snog you, so you really havent got much choice sometimes.
I think this about a lot of things but I also enjoy a kiss
Same with putting your mouth on other peoples private bits. SO WEIRD but also not weird at all.
I don’t do it myself - I’ll kiss my daughters on the cheek or forehead.
But then I looked at the photos in that article and I don’t think any of them look weird doing so.
So yeah, no massive problem with it.
Pictures of people kissing other people on the lips FULL STOP is weird
How about clapping? Smashing your hands into each other to show appreciation for a thing? Dead weird.
Proper weird.
I also find sleeping is a bit werid. We all go lay down in the dark for HOURS and forget?
I don’t really do it but I don’t think it’s weird
This is the best description of sleeping I’ve ever heard.
Yep, very odd at the least I’d say.
Eating a thing that then turns into a smelly brown poo and making it come out of our bumholes? Weird.
Pretty much this.
There are points in a kid’s life where things change, like kissing or covering up rather than being naked in front of parents. I think these things seem to have shifted to a slightly younger age than previously but there shouldn’t be any issues about them.
I voted not weird because I assumed we were talking about small kids. It’s weirder as a teenager or a grown up kid (as in Meow’s video - yikes) but I’m not sure why. Maybe at a certain age a kiss on the lips takes on a different significance.
I don’t actively go in for a kiss on the mouth but my son sometimes wants a kiss on the lips so that’s no bother. Kids don’t really seem to understand a kiss on the cheak. I quite like kissing them on the head, Barthez style
There’s also the fact that in order to get to sleep the best thing to do is lie down in the dark and pretend to be asleep.
Yeah and I’ve accidentally kissed them on the lips before and nobody freaks out.
Yeah, that is also weird. I might start a ‘Things that are weird’ thread, is there any clamour for one?
Maybe flip it to ‘things that aren’t weird’ for Meow’s sake
