French kiss
Origin of the term French kiss
The term French kiss dates back at least to the 1920s. I think it has something to do with the specific culture of France in the roaring 20s. The States had the Great Gatsby and decadence expressed in materialism, while the French had a decadence expressed as a culture of passion, during the 1920s. To be French was to be passionate, oh la la etc. French kiss.
The above is the popular idea of how French kiss was started. However, I have another theory about the term French Kiss. The term might have started during the colonial wars of the 1700s when many idioms and expressions like French kiss, came about as the English looked for ways to put down the French.
In the book ‘Last of the Mohegans’ during the French and Indian war of the 1750s the English commander makes a put down of the French courage by saying “the French would rather make love with their face than make war” This book was written in the 1800s. So I believe ironically, French Kiss could come from this time of French and English anomosity. Why else would a classic book make sure a reference.
Why French kiss

How to French kiss
The best way to French kiss is not going in like a shark attack, rather it should be slow and more exploratory.  You should lead with our lips not your tongue, you do not want too much cream not enought milk. Oh and close your eyes. Also try Eskimo kissing with your nose as a variation during a French kiss. Now Americans have a low tolerance for public displays of affection. In fact if we see people doing a French kiss in public, we say, they must be Europeans, as it makes us feel uncomfortable. Which I find silly because a French kiss is really innocent compared to the movies we have.
French kiss as a gift
No money, or not time, or no interest in a commercial Valentines present. The give your girl a French Kiss for say 1/2 an hour. Or give her a French Kiss 1 minute for every month you have been together for a Valentines day gift. I think no women in the world would be unhappy about 30 minutes, nothing else but a French Kiss. I think a French Kiss is better than any money or commerical gift. It sounds corny but give her the gift of a French Kiss.
