Art of the Kiss: For the Love of Vampires!

The Art of kissing Vampires?

Vampire fantasies seem to flow to and fro over the years…Of course Dracula in popular culture has been the most prominent blood sucker although he has growing rivals…

One could provide endless derivative works on the psychological reasons for this bloody fetish…The movie in the above video is Dracula a 1979 film staring Frank Langella with Kate Nelligan as the willing victim Lucy…provides a feast of fetishes and fists full of potential scenarios for a mind affixed to vampire fantasies…

Imagine his bloodiness transported into another film etc….

Romeo and Juliet: Juliet speaking: “Dracula…Dracula where art thou Dracula?”

CSI Gil Grissom to Sara Sidle: “Sara what lovely blood you have.”

Sarah Palin to Barack Obama “Barack you come a step closer and I will shoot this wooden stake into your heart with my shotgun.” Barack Obama to Sarah Palin “Sarah I have no heart.” Sarah Palin to Barack Obama “well my blood runs like ice in my veins.”

Dracula to Michael Jackson…hmm better not...bad taste…oh that is also kind of funny…oh well…

Hmm…actually none of these are very humorous…maybe vampires are not funny…do you know a better example?

Why do people seem to find vampires to be so romantic, sexy and alluring?

The First Interracial TV Kiss Kirk and Uhura Video

Yes this is the first interracial kiss on US TV….

As Kirk and Uhura kiss it is often not noticed that an interspecies kiss took place during the same Star Trek episode…a Vulcan and a Human…

Certainly as we have this opportunity to look into the future it is equally interesting to look into the past and compare them both to the present…

With interracial relationships how far have we come? Around the globe where are the most tolerant and the least intolerant places towards these kinds of relationships…and what can make the situation better?

Ever had an interracial relationship? What kinds of pressures did you encounter…and equally what kinds of blessings?

Is this a non-issue?

Happy Days Cross Dressing Video Nature or Nurture

A day when cross-dressing was considered humorous because of its outlandishness…A 70’s show about the 50’s…Happy Days…an episode when ultra cool Fonzie dances with boy next door Richie…

We live in a new millennium when cross-dressing, being transgendered and gay marriage are becoming supposedly oh so mundane…is there anything left which could be utilized as such humour?

Gender roles have changed the way people see dolls…society so very often puts the hammer on masculinity in favour of neutered…or feminine roles…

Politics is seen as a blood sport which needs taming as it is based upon opposition…and other such ideas flood the media…yet for some reason still most of the time women are the primary care giver of children even if they are the better educated and higher on the money food chain…generally women still do most of the cooking…

With all of the changes…today…most of the time…who asks the other to dance today?

What is it nature or nurture…or both? 

Art of Kissing Fashion Darling: Milan Fashion Week: Looking Good: Lace: Frilly Shoes: Skirt below the Knees: Rounded Shoulders

What is the Art of Kissing fashion darling?

Is it looking good to tango in lace…leggy with a skirt below the knees…having “those’ shoulders to model the latest (and to shoulder a scrumptious bag)?

Lots of beauty in Milano, fashion as art is Art of Kissing fashion…Alright I am a guy…a straight one at that…sure the ladies look good…some actually do not look like walking skeletons…but I do love the fashion…I love art…and fashion is a form of art…one that breaths into our everyday life…

Sticks and Stones: Skinny and Bones: Victoria Beckham Video: Nosh for Posh

While in London this past week the papers were all atwitter not looking at Victoria Beckham’s skeletons in her closet but her skeleton barely confined under a lite dusting of skin….

This being said what passes for newspapers in London generally cannot be described as “news” papers…it is more lifestyle, gossip and celebrity obsessing along with sensationalizing anything they can get their hands on. It is almost to the point where you can take the ludicrous horoscopes as seriously as any news reports. In short the London papers are boney thin on substance and real reporting!

We at Art of the Kiss would never want to obsess about whether Victoria seemed in need of deboning, or if she seemed healthy looking, we would never ask our dear readers if they think she is too thin and boney, or too defensive about how her appearance is being reported etc…However we are interested in why people are so interested in celebrities, what people think of Victoria’s fashions and the latest in celeb games…what is your high score with Nosh for Posh? How do you think David scores…?

Paradise by the Dashboard Light: Meatloaf Video: Loneliness

Ain’t no doubt about it…..we were doubly blessed…a song that tells the story of a young couple…barley 17…parked….and glowing like the metal on the edge of a knife….praying for the end of time…This is Paradise by the Dashboard Light….a song with creative imagery and storytelling…

The story is more than cheap sex by the dashboard light of a Ford (probably in danger of break down)….it is cold and lonely in the deep dark night….it is the struggle between intentions, power thresholds, youthful passions certainly but also an opera of sorts…there are the performances…acting, music, costumes…a setting and it is certainly a dance of desire and the will enthralled to determination…it is drama…gender politics…all wrapped up in sport euphemisms and the passions of teenagers…

Songs artistically tell us stories of life...they can become anthems of sorts…they can shore up metanarratives or introduce splintering concepts…the argument goes that art imitates life but life can also imitate art…

Humans get lonely…lonely in the deep dark night…surely this can be sexual but also sheer loneliness…so lonely that we trade convictions for the comfort of another body…so lonely that we exchange fluids with strangers we would not make a cup of coffee for in the morning…thus comes regret…

This begs the question…why do we get lonely?

I believe we desire to transcend self…we are designed for relationships…and because it is dark by the dashboard light we often do dark things in relationships…but indeed relationships and sex are to be part of the light not the darkness of our hearts…

We live in a world swamped in loneliness…we get lonely….there are other ways to diminish that loneliness than by the dashboard light…where do you go to perish the loneliness? Where do you go?

Where do you find Paradise? In the Light?
