Yesterday, my classmate’s wife trusted me enough to let me play with her 5-month old baby. And so I did. I took him and went around the room meeting nationalities of the world.
The curious thing, very curious thing, about the baby is that he doesn’t kiss properly. When he tries to show his affection to his mother, he just opens his mouth, making some “MUHHH MUHHH” sound, and sticks it onto his mother’s face. Sort of like licking, with his mouth wide open. And he repeatedly did that. His mouth is still on his mother’s face. And he only does it to his mother (not stranger like me).
And so I conclude, if babies don’t know how to kiss, it means that kissing is not natural.

Playing music is also not natural…

They just wobble around aimlessly either trying to imitate what other people do or repeating the movements that they see that other people laugh at (positive reinforcement)… That is just as bad as just opening your mouth and slobbering the other person aimlessly or going to a piano a banging on some random keys.
