The culture of kissing in the 18th century varies regionally, although in the culture of Eastern Europe, including the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth, kissing another man was not associated with romance and was common among people of both sexes. Representatives of the upper classes kissed as a sign of friendship, humility and respect, and the places of kissing were differentiated depending on status, age, level of relationship and the ceremony of the meeting. Friends often kissed each other on the face, neck or shoulders. It was common to kiss hands, and the greatest sign of respect was kissing knees or shoes. There were often kiss fights in which nobles tried to show humility trough a kiss, so often one tried to kiss the other "more and lower". Something unbelievable for 18th century French man.

"People used to wear Anemone flower close to them to scare away bad luck. They believed that carrying an Anemone flower in their pocket is going to bring them luck in important life situations. The truth is they never brought happiness, but hidden pain."
