My mom's side of the family does this, I always turn my head to try and get cheek but they always get my lips...it's gross, I hate it.

Hey, different cultures. People from my country do it, and I don't get it either
WillJeSuis
I agree and I actually avoided it with my niece as she grew up, she would go kissing others (family) on the lips and I'd turn away so she
would not kiss me on the lips and on the cheek instead. I just feel it's weird and if she grows up thinking it's normal and it ends up doing
it to strangers whereas the kiss on cheeks is more standard.

nellynorgus
Weird-outers: That's creepy.Kissers: you think that's sexual? sick fuck!
Just wanted to point out how excessively aggressive the attitude is on one side of this divide. Almost like frantic self affirmation.
mynameisnotalice
I have the opposite "problem". Always feel sorry for kids in families that are not affectionate towards each others. Physical contact is (1)
Bugleisthebomb
Agreed, I have no family contact, 1 email a year saying happy birthday and that's all from a family of 5. Hugs are underrated
Equreuil
My family hugs and gives kisses on the cheek. that's plenty affectionate
WhyShouldILoveYou
You can be affectionate towards your family without kissing them.
You can but you don't need to.
potatiskatt
I don't kiss my mom on the lips but we are very affectionate with each other. Lots of hugs, cuddles when we're watching TV, etc.
@OP is talking about kissing lip on lip not about hugging, cuddles or even kissing on cheeks.
And I talk about affectionate physical contact. Should have exclusively include kissing on the lip. In my head that connection was clear ^^'
littlebear4415
I disagree, I find a long tight hug from mom or dad is much more comforting then a kiss on the lips..
Me, too. So not sure what you're disagreeing on ;)
Seems relevant, but you're actually not talking about the same thing OP is...
For me 'kissing' (also on the lip, it doesn't really make a difference for me if it's the lip or the cheek) also counts as sign of affection
I guess? How accepting would you be of people in a society where it is normal to rub your child on the butt cheeks? It's not OVERTLY sexual.
Same. If the kid communicates discomfort it's something else though. But then it doesn't matter if it's a kiss, hug or handshake.
important for the mental well-being of kids (and adults for that matter...) There are families that don't even hug or cuddle... (2)
mykneesaremeatarmsspaghetti
Have fun making out with your kids then, weirdo
Attaleros
Can confirm. My family didn't hug or cuddle at all. I struggle with physical contact as an adult because it scares me and weirds me out.
Krismizter
Same with me... the only time i cuddle or hug anyone is when im on MDMA.
There are only two people whom I will hug without major discomfort. Anyone else, I just freeze in fear and hope they stop hugging me.

I didn't read the article, but I know it's also good while breastfeeding. It picks up on what your baby needs and alerts your body to

I don't kiss my parents or siblings like that anymore, but I do kiss my 4 yr old on the lips. Sometimes I don't even notice. Love is love.
She isn't grossed out. She's my baby. But I know I will stop at a certain age. She's still too precious to not get all the kisses.
I read a study that determined kissing your kids like that transmits cavity causing bacteria. :/
I went to school for dental assisting. I'm not worried about it. If anything it strengthens your immune system. Plus it's not like I'm >
BattlesTARDIStroyer
Well yeah kissing anyone ever transmits bacteria.
