No, can't say as I have. However, I have been recommending that kissing is excellent exercise for both your embouchure and lungs.

Our BD once told us that u can tell the diff when u kiss a clarinetist and a saxophonist. He said the clarinetist is very persistent and kisses very tightly while a saxophonist is more relax..  |

could that be due to the fact that saxophones are bigger than clarinets therefore creating larger vibrations which causes loose lips? if thats the cause than bari players must have really loose lips lol

Not really, it's just the difference in embrochure between sax and clarinet. Not really to due with size as much as technique.

I've always heard that play a wind instrument improves uh... performance when kissing.

Maybe... but I've always heard trumpets are the best kissers.
