Making out

Making out is a term of American origin, dating back to at least 1949, and is used variously to refer to kissing, petting, and necking, but may also refer to non-penetrative sex acts such as heavy petting.Snogging is a term with roughly the same meaning in British English and related varieties of English.

History

The sexual connotations of the phrase "make out" appear to have developed in the 1930s and 1940s from the phrase's other meanings of "to succeed". Originally, it meant "to seduce" or "to have sexual intercourse with".

Studies indicate that at the beginning of the 20th century, premarital sex increased, and with it, petting behavior in the 1920s. The Continental experience at that time is amusingly illustrated by a letter that Sigmund Freud wrote to Sándor Ferenczi in 1931 playfully admonishing him to stop kissing his patients, in which Freud warned lest "a number of independent thinkers in matters of technique will say to themselves: Why stop at a kiss? Certainly one gets further when one adopts 'pawing' as well, which, after all, doesn't make a baby. And then bolder ones will come along who will go further, to peeping and showing – and soon we shall have accepted in the technique of analysis the whole repertoire of demi-viergerie and petting parties".

Petting, Bavaria

Petting is a municipality in the district Traunstein, Bavaria, Germany. It is located on the shore of the Waginger See, a diluvial lake.

The first mention of the municipality was in 1048 with the name Pettinga; however, it is possible that the settlement already existed at the time of the Roman Empire. In 1180 it came into the ownership of the monastery St. Zeno.

    Summer Song

    by: Podunk

    There is nothing like the
    Smell of a summer breeze
    Nothing like the chill from
    The shadow of a shady tree
    Gonna go down to the river
    Gonna go down make it right
    And send all my love to your maker
    For making you right
    Are you ready for a new day, a new day
    Blow me a kiss and send it straight to the sun
    And if you want to take it my way, my way
    Then this could be our summer song
    There's nothing like the
    Way that you say your on my side
    And I want to know that
    Words help me days go by
    Gonna go down to the river
    Gonna go down make it right
    And send all my love to your maker
    Ffor making you right
    Are you ready for a new day, a new day
    Blow me a kiss and send it straight to the sun
    And if you want to take it my way, my way
    Then this could be our summer song
    Let me make you understand
    Just take me by the hand
    Let me show you all i can
    And be your only man
    If I could only make you see
    Just what you mean to me
    You know it won't be to long
    Till we sing our summer song
    Are you ready for a new day, a new day
    Blow me a kiss and send it straight to the sun
    And if you want to take it my way, my way
