Kissing On The First Date, An Abominable Act?

Kissing shows intimacy and is considered a form of expressing affection between lovebirds. Sometimes, prospective couples share deep, very wet and sloppy kisses on their first date.
The question remains, is this right? Naturally, more guys will welcome the idea of a kiss on the first date but the ladies will be more reluctant and apprehensive about such intimate gestures. Their reluctance is often not as a result of them seeing kissing on the first date as being wrong but simply because they are wary and scared of sending a seemingly wrong signal.

Ladies seem really scared of appearing 'cheap' but guys care less. Surprisingly, not all guys consider girls who share a kiss with them on a first date as promiscuous or cheap.
Remember, a kiss shared cannot be retracted.
Would you or have you shared a kiss with someone on the first date? What do you think of it? What was your experience?
