What’s an Eskimo Kiss?
If you have ever wanted to know what’s an Eskimo kiss, then read on.
The kiss is a traditional greeting gesture and is usually interpreted as a friendly gesture.
Eskimo kisses are also known as a nose kiss or even a nose rub. It is not unusual to see Eskimo kisses performed on the streets of Alaska.
However, not many people know how to perform this type of kiss.
In the arctic climate, the Eskimo kiss has evolved from earlier traditions of exchanging kisses. Although it doesn’t involve the mouth, it is a sign of affection. The Eskimo kiss may have been exchanged by a parent when you were younger, but it does not have to be familial. Holly Richmond, a psychologist and certified sex therapist say the Eskimo kiss can be a very intimate gesture.
As mentioned, an Eskimo kiss involves placing the partner’s nose against the other person’s upper lip.
