Words - "Snogging"

[DrTre]

This isn't a flippant comment, I'm really quite perturbed by this. It's an area of the English language lacking in alternatives, but is there a better word for snogging than..snogging?! It's truly hideous.

Anyone?

(please don't delete this for a bit, mods, I'm genuinely curious)

Necking?

It's lasted a long time hasn't it? Still the word used from the 60's up to now

Kissing doesn't cover it. Canoodle...similar...doens't imply the whole tongue thing.
Pash, making out...dare i say a bit teenagery?!
Smooch...maybe...necking too..
Prefingering...call me a reactionary fuddy duddy but no one is fingering me after just a snog.

Petting is the one I've been using but people laughed.

With you, or at you?

[Justayellowbadge]

'Getting off with' but it does seem a tad adolescent.

Thats it yes, heavy petting.

When I was a teenager the phrase of the moment was 'moying on'.

As in "have you seen our kid?", "aye, he's moying on with that slapper from number 32"
