. When a  man is presented to a 
lady, and he kisses her hand, does he then actually  kis the hand, or does he 
just pretend that he is kissing the hand?
I  have done both, but not sure wich is correct.




And since you ask that, I have another question.  At least in the 20th  
century, a gentleman only kissed a MARRIED woman's hand.  I would like to  know 
when that started.
