I don't really like the "I used to live in America, so I'm fine with kissing my friends," thing. It's just such a cliche excuse, and not very accurate to boot. That kind of stuff is just not common.
ahh soooo agree!!! it is sooooo stupid! NOT ACCURATE AT ALL! lol. i grew up in the nw of US and i- NEVER see ANYBODY just kissing their friends like that. MAYBE a family member, and certainly between parent and child when they are young, you know, not even between siblings. it's always an adult to a younger family member. but still in my experience very very rare. It is SUCH an overused cliche to use as an excuse to have 2 characters kiss, so sick and tired of it. and tbh? downgrades my opinion of an author when i see it used :/
oh and, for starting out saying all of the girls are straight, there sure are a lot of couples starting to show up. way to go back on your word lol.
Well, to be fair America is the whole continent. And in some places in Latin America is fairly common to greet people with a kiss. Even between males.
It's usually more a cheek to cheek but count as kissing greeting.
I live in Brazil and i can confirm that
Not the between male part though, that's news to me
I live in Brazil too, and is pretty common for people to hug and kiss family and friends, sometimes even strangers , it's kind weird when you don't like to do these things.
Argentina and France are some of the countries where the male kissing thing is not that rare.
