 Wired News: Study: Couples Love Kissing Right
A German researcher has found that your kissing partner is twice as likely to turn his head to the right than to the left for smooching.

But, like the kissing bias, favoring the right foot, ear and eye are twice as common, which led the researcher to believe those traits might all be determined by the head-turning preference in the womb.
