Among the bad things we've recovered from the old normal is the return of the two kisses on the cheek as a greeting to women in the professional field by those who want to be known.

It was like taking off our masks and falling back on a weight from which the covid had freed us. Just because a stranger brings his cheek close to yours doesn't just mean that he rests his lips lightly on your face without you offering or asking for it. But too often it acts as a repellent because it means coming in contact with the smell of your aftershave, the fat on your skin or, worse, a trace of your saliva or the pump of your breath.

I just don't understand why this social convention, which is more imposing than usual for women, needs to be rescued. It is still nonsense that those two kisses that explode against the face continue to resonate in the workplace or professional spaces in a society that wants to be equal. If we really care about the values ​​of equality, then gentlemen, please extend a hand to a woman so that she can shake her hand and stop looking at her cheek as if they had known her for a lifetime. Formality is a bad excuse to give back to this greeting a long life that it does not deserve. The oddities in this world, and there are so many of us, think that a couple of these double kisses for work a day outweigh the maximum ration of unwanted contact we can assume in an entire week.

I know it sounds weird, but I'm a lot of kissing, even cutting distances. Ep, with one condition: only when there is trust and permission. I appreciate my inner circle too much to tolerate what raids. Let's be selective. So it is worth shortening distances, and embracing, and embracing us. The magarufes. They denote more sincerity, release emotions and harmonize energies.

Kisses ?, Let them be real. Kisses that are born of affection, friendship or both. And the others, kisses that arise from passion, above all. Those who time the beats and fill their lungs with air. Tender, slow. Those kisses where you would stay to live forever.
