What does this mean?

I have seen lots of pictures of this but I am not sure what this behavior means or if it should be encouraged.

First Skye began to put his (or her) head IN my mouth and makes clucking noises. Now for the first 5 minutes each time I hold him he bows down, puts his head up, pins his eyes, and just clucks like crazy. During these times I can do anything that I want to him (kiss, pet, scratch). Here is a photo of what he does:

Is this mating behavior? If it is would it be more prone to males or females? I am dieing to know what he (or she is)!! at 10 months there is a definate shadow but I know females get shadows too :-)
