怎样接吻_翻译国外医学论坛的一篇经典文章(2)

Rachel Myeroff, 26, can attest to that. On a second date with a guy, says the New York City-based sales manager, “he just went in for it and attached himself to me in the sloppiest, most horrible kiss ever. He was just consuming my mouth. I most definitely did not call him again.”

“在接吻的时候，存在一种非常复杂的信息交换…它可能是利用到了潜在的进化机制” 来为是否双方基因匹配提供线索。这是此项研究报告的合著者，纽约大学心理学教授Gordon Gallup做出的解释。 “这么说吧，一个吻可以决定’关系成败’ “
26岁的 Rachel Myeroff能作证。在她同一名男子第二次约会的时候，这位在纽约市做销售经理说：“他很喜欢接吻，把我和他用天底下最恐怖最烂的吻连在一块。将我的嘴巴当成了消费品。我是绝对不会再给他打电话了”
Gallup’s research suggests that men and women have different agendas when it comes to kissing, an act that occurs in 95 percent of human societies and is believed to have been first recorded in Vedic Sanskrit texts around 1500 B.C. in India.
For men, kissing is more often used as a means to an end — namely, to gain sexual access. Men also are more likely to literally kiss and make up, using kissing to attempt reconciliation.
Women on the other hand use kissing as a mate-assessment technique, Gallup notes. They subconsciously evaluate mating potential from the chemicals in their partner’s saliva and breath, for instance.
Women also use kissing as a bonding gesture, as well as to monitor the status of the relationship. If her partner’s kissing frequency or technique suddenly changes, that perhaps is a sign of his waning interest.
Gallup的研究显示男人和女人在接吻一事上打着不同的算盘。接吻是一种95%的人类社会会发生的行为。对接吻的最早的记载是在大约公元前1500年印度的梵文里面。
对男人来讲，接吻更多时候是为了达到一个目的–也就是，获得性接触。 男人们更有可能会去”接吻后重归于好“，用它来缓解(矛盾）。
另一方面，女人们用接吻当成一项评估方法。 比方说，她们会从对方唾液和呼吸中的化学物质来潜意识地评估对方的配偶潜力。
女性还会把接吻当成亲和举动，以及检视关系的状态。 如果男方接吻平率或方式突然改变，那也许就说明他的兴趣在消退。
Other gender differences uncovered by Gallup’s research:
在Gallup的研究中的其它性别差异有：
• Men show a greater preference for tongue contact and open-mouth kisses.
男性对舌头和开口吻更青睐
• Men are more willing than women to have sex with someone without kissing, as well as to have sex with someone they are not attracted to or consider to be a bad kisser.
男性比女性更愿意和某人不接吻就发生性关系；男性比女性更愿意和自己不喜欢或认为对方接吻表现差的人发生性关系。
• Women place more importance on kissing throughout a relationship, whereas men place less importance on it as the relationship progresses.
在关系过程里，女性会一直更注重接吻；而男性随着关系进展注重程度会减低。
Improve your kiss
提高接吻质量
If you’ve ever been told to kiss off after smooching someone beneath the holiday mistletoe, fear not. Like other skills, one’s kissing technique can be improved upon. Michael Christian, author of “The Art of Kissing” (under the pen name William Cane), offers classes, and there’s a myriad of how-to books and DVDs.
