研究表明：男女接吻的目的各不相同

A New York study finds that women and men kiss for different reasons. Women kiss because it’s romantic and men kiss because it’s sexy.
U.S. psychologists asked 1,041 college students a series of questions relating to kissing. According to their study: “… females place more importance on kissing as a mate assessment device ….. In contrast, males place less importance on kissing, … and appear to use kissing to increase the likelihood of having sex.”
Over 50% of the college men surveyed said they would have sex with someone without kissing them. Only 15% of the college women answered similarly.
The article “Sex Differences in Romantic Kissing Among College Students: An Evolutionary Perspective” by U.S. psychologists Susan M. Hughes (Albright College, Reading, Pennsylvania), Marissa A. Harrison (Borough of Manhattan Community College, The City University of New York, ), and Gordon G. Gallup, Jr. (University at Albany, State University of New York) appears in the journal Evolutionary Psychology (2007 5(3): 612-631).
The paper’s abstract states: “This study provides a descriptive account of kissing behavior in a large sample of undergraduate college students and considers kissing in the context of both short-term and long-term mating relationships. Kissing was examined as a mate assessment device, a means of promoting pair bonds, and a means of inducing sexual arousal and receptivity.”
“A total 1,041 college students completed one of three questionnaires measuring kissing preferences, attitudes, styles, and behaviors. Results showed that females place more importance on kissing as a mate assessment device and as a means of initiating, maintaining, and monitoring the current status of their relationship with a long-term partner.”
“In contrast, males place less importance on kissing, especially with short-term partners, and appear to use kissing to increase the likelihood of having sex. The results suggest that kissing may play an important role as an adaptive courtship/mating ritual.”
One of the conclusions of the study states: “Nonetheless, this study provides evidence that romantic kissing may have evolved as an adaptive courtship strategy that functions as a mate-assessment technique, a means of initiating sexual arousal and receptivity, and a way of maintaining a bonded relationship. While both sexes participate in the adaptive benefits of kissing, we found sex differences when considering the pursuit of short- versus long-term mating strategies.”
纽约的一份研究发现男女接吻的目的各不相同。女性接吻是为了浪漫，而男性是为了性感。
美国心理学家对1,041位大学生问询了一系列与亲吻相关的问题。 根据他们的研究：“…女性将亲吻的重点放在增加伴侣感情上..... 相反，男性将亲吻看得不那么重要，…并且看上接吻是为了增加性关系的可能性”。
在受调查的这些大学生中，超过50%的男性表示愿意不接吻而直接发生性关系，而女性愿意的比率只有15%。
做该调查的人因此写了一篇论文，在论文中：“女性将亲吻的重点放在增加伴侣感情上，并将亲吻作为长期伴侣开始、维护、检验感情的一种方法。”
“与此相反，男性将亲吻看得不那么重要，尤其是短期伴侣，并且看上接吻是为了增加性关系的可能性。结果表明接吻可能在求爱/交合方面扮演着重要的角色。”
研究得出的一个结论是：“研究提供的证据表明，浪漫的吻是女性特有的求爱方式，一种产生性意识和接受性意识的表现，一种维护伴侣关系的方式。但当涉及到短期或者长期伴侣时，不同性别则表现出不同的目的。”
