Question

Which parts of the body of women a men can allow to touch or kiss, and which parts are prohibited for men to touch or kiss and vice versa.

Answer

A man/woman can touch any part of each other's body. A man/woman can kiss any part of each other's body besides the private parts (the breasts are not included in private parts). It is not ethical to kiss the private parts of each other's body. This may lead to oral sex which is regarded as makrooh (reprehensible) according to the Jurists.
