Why is French kissing called French kissing?

Q: I know eskimo's kiss by rubbing noses, but how did the English then Kiss? Or the Spanish etc?

A: Jesse Ray seems to be onto something but he neglected to mention that "down south" for an Australian implies the hooves of a sheep, perhaps the genuine down south kissing is specifically for the English, Spanish and other nationalities. The French are well known for procrastination.
