Why kissing is so important. The limbic system, what some researchers call the primitive
brain is where our bodily functions, such as heart rate, breathing, and perspiration
our controlled automatically. The limbic
system is the center for controlling our actions that insure our survival and
having sex ( to insure the survival or our species.)
Kissing is important
because it actually excites the limbic brain center so that that it “command
central” can send the cascade of hormones that increase the libido and prepare
the body to have sex. It is up to the
cerebral cortex, also called the new brain, where logic and conscious thought
occurs to put the brakes on or stop us from having sex with the wrong partner
or at the wrong time or to monitor the process enough to ensure we have safe
sex.
