Cultural Anthropology 101: How they greet each other in Lawrence



4473865_550x550_mb_art_r0_medium

When traveling to Lawrence, Kansas, the local custom is for one man to touch another man on the boob. It's kind of like Europe, where they kiss each other on the cheek(s), but less chic and more awkward.

Under no circumstance is a man supposed to greet a woman by touching her boob. In their culture, that's just "icky".

Not that there's anything wrong with that.

Have you seen "Meet the Spartans"?

Leonidas: That is how men great each other in Sparta: high-fives for the women
[high-fives Queen Margo]
Leonidas: and open-mouthed tongue kisses for the men!

Hail to the Purple, Hail to the White
Wildcat in spirit, Wildcat in fight
Hail Alma Mater from sea to sea
Onward forever, Hail Victory!
