Is kissing OK in Japan?
This article explores the cultural perspective and etiquette of kissing in Japan. Kissing is not widely accepted or practiced as it is in other countries due to cultural norms around modesty and respect for others' personal space. However, there are certain types of kisses that may take place between family members and/or romantic partners depending on their comfort level with one another. It's important for individuals participating in any type of physical contact (including kissing) to remain respectful at all times so as not to cause offense or embarrassment for those around them.
