Do women ever lift a leg when they kiss like in old movies? I never had a woman lift her leg. Am I kissing wrong? Have any women here ever lifted their leg while kissing? ---

Only when I’m marking my territory. ---

Once, just to see what all the fuss was about … But seriously, if I’m being kissed good and proper, I’m all weak in the knees and stuff, and there ain’t no way I could hold myself up on one leg then. ---

I’ve seen it done maybe five times, but each of those times were at rehersal for a play. Such a kiss was called for in the script. I’ve never done it in real life, and haven’t ever done it myself. I wonder where the leg-lifting thing even came from…hmmm…off to GQ… ---

i do, sometimes. Depends on how the kiss goes. Sometimes I hang on to my BF and lift both of 'em 🙂 ---

I tried this out once when I was about six or seven and some relative was hugging me. He teased me mercilessly about it and I have never done it since then. ---
