Significance
Celebrating the significance and pleasure of kissing[1][2]
Another date, February 14, has also been identified as the International Kiss Day, as it is the romantic holiday Valentine's Day.[7] July 6 is also the observance of the feast of Saint Valentine in the Eastern Orthodox Church.
The concept behind the International Kissing Day is that many people may have forgotten the simple pleasures associated with kissing for kissing's sake, as opposed to kissing as mere social formality or prelude to other activities.[3][2]
