Why and how did Eskimo's "nose-rubbing" take the place of lip kissing?

Asked by john65pennington (29258points) November 22nd, 2010

Over and over again, I have watched male and female Eskimos rub noses together. Where did this tradition come from? Why do they not kiss each other, like everyone else? Question: Is Eskimo nose-rubbing a prerequisite for sex, like kissing is for other people?
