The French Kiss And Other Things You Always Wanted To Know About France
by  A.H. Anuar

For centuries, the French have fascinated visitors and arm-chair admirers around the world. The way they dressed, the way they ate, the way they lived...few other peoples have generated as much admiration, curiosity, misconceptions and misunderstandings as the French, and for visitors who may be wondering about some of the things they might encounter, here are are few things you might want to know!

No, this is not about the one with all the tongue! In France, it is customary to greet friends and relatives with a light kiss on the cheeks. Known as la bisse, it is seen as a normal and completely unsexual act, despite continuous Anglo-Saxon fascination with it. As a visitor to France, you may not have the opportunity to faire la bisse, but if you ever do, just remember:

- Men kiss only women or men they are fairly close to;
- A quick peck on the cheek is usually safer than a firm planting of lips;
- Its you're choice which cheek to kiss first, but most people start on the right;
- The eldest or most senior person usually initiates the ritual;
- The number of times you kiss depends on the region, but two is most common in Paris;
- And if any of this feels at all uncomfortable, a firm handshake will do! Read more
