Arroyo to men: Stop kissing me
http://www.cnn.com/2004/WORLD/asiapcf/08/11/arroyo.kiss.ap/index.html

MANILA, Philippines (AP) -- Annoyed by a stream of unwanted kisses, President Gloria Macapagal Arroyo has warned overzealous male fans and supporters that to avoid embarrassment they should not pucker up in her direction.

"First, show some respect. Secondly, I am conservative. I do not want to be kissed by any man but my husband," she told a town hall meeting in Laguna province, south of Manila.

Arroyo often receives kisses on both cheeks by unknown admirers in a practice known locally as "beso-beso" ("kiss-kiss").

1. Don't blame her
Although not for the reasons she stated.

'Kiss-kiss' is insincere, gushy, and unsanitary.

I'd prefer a simple head-nod to all this hand-shaking and cheek kissing.

So did George Washington I believe.
