Why is that some providers do not kiss?  I never really understood this, but then again I'm not a hobbyist.  I have heard many theories behind this.  The one that I hear is that it is too personal.  Is this true?  I would figure the sex would be more personal than the kissing.  Any ideas?

I have read a few books concerning this very thing...most women consider kissing to be more intimate than sex.I think the girls could give you a reply on the board here and they can explain it from a woman's point of view. All I know is that the kissing just puts me into another galaxy! Gotta have that sweet kiss!!

Other reasons include:1) Bad Breath - always brush your teeth guys. Do you like kissing a woman with bad breath?2) Smoking - some of the non-smoking provider refuse to kiss smokers. And I personally hate to kiss ashtrays. However, the providers that I've seen who do smoke, have done a great job masking the effect by using lots of breath mints and brushing their teeth. Moreover they don't smoke in my presence.
