 I have never understood what a human bite mark on the neck or elsewhere has to do with love? lust? or anything else...in my day it was said that if you had love bites for the world to see then it mean't you were sexually active. Love bites can be 'dirty'...that is not a moral judgement though, I am talking about infections, bacteria and all that stuff. If a dog bites you then you go to a doctor and get a tetanus shot and some antibiotics. Basically your mouth is full of bacteria and if they create a wound on someone's neck by breaking the skin then you can end up with some lovely scabby marks, a swollen neck and much soreness! Being a vampire is so over-rated...try garlic instead.

I don't think they are at all dirty. Go for it if you want to give or recieve love bites that's your choice. They only thing that i would say is do them on parts of the body that aren't in full view of everyone else. Let them be a special private thing that only you and your man know about.

I think though if you are with someone you love and either of you leaves one more respectable love bite then it's not dirty, I think it can be a good reminder of a passionate encounter :)

reader, anonymous, writes (15 July 2006): I'm not really sure what you mean by "love bites" or what a "tart" is, but my answer is going to have to be no. Everyone has the freedom to be who they are and do as they please, without concern for the stereotypes of others. I hope that answers your question. =)
