Who is the beneficiary in this scenario?
1) Man filled with lust/love kisses his girl on the neck.
2) Man filled with lust/love kisses his girl on her breasts.
3) Woman sees, as she puts it a" cute, delicious" baby, and proceeds to kiss/bite the baby's cute cheeks.
4) Man sees his mother after months of longing and being apart, rushes to her and kisses her cheek.
I will reveal more based on your answers, which I look forward to.

Re: Who is the beneficiary in this scenario?
A couple of things: firstly your original premises are too simplistic. For most episodes I have been personally involved in, the gift giver receives more than the gift recipient.DP Brah wrote:If we were to say that in a scenario where Adam buys Eve an anniversary gift, Eve is the beneficiary, and that in a scenario where Eve cooks Adam a delicious dinner, Adam is the beneficiary, who is the beneficiary in the following scenarios:
1) Man filled with lust/love kisses his girl on the neck.
2) Man filled with lust/love kisses his girl on her breasts.
3) Woman sees, as she puts it a" cute, delicious" baby, and proceeds to kiss/bite the baby's cute cheeks.
4) Man sees his mother after months of longing and being apart, rushes to her and kisses her cheek.

In 1 and 2, you are implying a relationship where the actions are part of normal behavior. Therefore (just as in your original set up scenarios) both receive a benefit. In 3, the woman receives much more than the baby, though the baby does receive something. In 4 the mother receives more (assuming a typical parent/child relationship).
Don't like you style of holding back.

I think that licking and spluttering and biting and sucklig on ungodly, unforgivably sinful, impure and vilely debaucherous corporal things is the biggest gift you can receive or give. That is the first reason why all religions ban them.
