This thing has always bothered me cause I have seen it occasionally done either on movies or documentaries.

I don't understand it, maybe it's a culture thing but this shit is revolting to me.

Depends on culture and family. In my family it is normal for parents and grandparents do that with small kids like until 8 or something.

Its more of a cultural thing and also depends on the beliefs as well of the family itsef.

I cringe everytime I see that. It feels so wrong and incesty.

What is wrong? It is affection fam. When folks grow up some parents stop doing that but it is not sexual.

do europeans only kiss their parents or even relatives and friends? if so those songs and problems about never been kiss should assimilate to european culture already

This is a pretty good way of explaining it, kisses aren't automatically sexual. This is a cultural difference.

No. It was also American before everything was sexualized. I've seen it in plenty of old movies.

It’s to show affection, no need to sexualize it.

My relatives did it to me when I was younger, nothing sexual about it. It's not like they're sticking their tongues out and French kissing. It's the equivalent of a peck on the cheeks.

WTF, I've never seen this before. It's creepy as fuck
I only kissed my father once when I was -5yo, but this was because I didn't know it was wrong, and I was also was really young (probably influenced by Disney movies or smth) In my family is normal only to share food and kiss on the cheeck.

I'm a straight man, just to make it clear looool

It's just a cultural difference (it's mainly Europeans who do it I believe) and because they grew up with that being the standard all their lives they don't see anything wrong with it; just don't slip any tongue in there lol. Personally I think it's disgusting and it freaks me out but there's nothing necessarily immoral about it I guess.

It is probably just a cultural thing, in my country I have seen it in people who live in poor neighbourhoods. It feels creepy in third person but because of the connotations of such act, I guess people who do this doesnt really have the same ones so I dont care

First of all, why do parents 'kiss' their children?

It's an act of affection. Nothing sexual.

To show love? That would be my guess. People that associate a sexual intent to this should touch grass, unless you're Chris-chan in which case you should still touch grass.

Different cultures do different things. Better question is why are parents allowed to kiss their kids against their will and force their kids to kiss other family members or close family friends?

My mother only ever kissed me on the forehead. I never saw my father kiss anyone. People would greet each other with a kiss on each cheek. I can't believe that some of you have been locking lips with your parents. Next thing you're gonna say you used tongue too like this is normal.

Let me be clear, if my lips touch another persons lips intentionally we are going to be having sex. And if my tongue enters their mouth we are in the middle of sex.

The gesture is actually seen quite different throughout the world, there are cultures where the gesture doesn't just holds romantic or sexual meaning to it but also others where it's almost nonexistent or is just seen as straight up disgusting as well no matter who you're locking lips with.

For example I believe mine was one of those where it really wasn't a thing until westernisation. Though chick kissing has become a form of greetings that some people practice on the other end to this day lip to lip is something that you almost never see being it in public or in our own media or even at weddings.

I was raised in Europe but I have never seen anything like that. I guess it is okay, though. As long as it is not too sloppy...

It's isn't locking lips. No one is shoving their wet tongues inside each other's mouths. It's just a quick and doting peck. My grandma from my father's side still does this to all her grandkids to this day once a year when we all get to see her.

I personally don't think it's a good way of showing love, not because of sexualizing the relationship or anything like that, but because there are creeps in this world. If your kid gets used to that early on and start thinking that's how you show affection, creeps can take advantage of that.
I sometimes forget to finish my sentences.

My mom used to peck my lips, which eventually stopped as I got older. It's not a weird thing to do, especially since it's just a way to show affection
