Condoleeza can kiss cheeks!
My Palestinian hairdresser was complaining that Condoleeza rice had developed the habit of cheek kissing that is particular to Arab men. I told her that Condoleeza was a man by proxy and had the right to do it, as she had by her position, unparalled in the Arab world, taken on the role of a male in middle eastern eyes.

Here, we're kissing cheeks all the time... I suppose you shake hands, right?
Yes we are not the kissing sort. Our culture descends from cold northern European peoples. Hands off, except when we do the nasty. Then we only touch with the necessary bits!
