RE: your May article about kissing (Make sense of la bise, p19)
I am a member of a French masonic lodge and on my first encounter with French masons I was taken aback by the amount of kissing that occurred but now accept it as normal.
One Frenchman explained the intricacies of kissing ladies as follows.... on first meeting a lady only shake hands; if you know her well, kiss both cheeks; if you know her very well, then there may come a time when you can kiss all four.
