Do you have issues with public displays of affection? Are you affectionate in public?

I have no problems with holding hands, hugging...however, when two people are going at it in a store or somewhere where it doesn't make sense to be french kissing and so forth, that is crossing the line. If they are at a park or something similar, I have no issue with that. Just out of the ordinary places i don't understand.

I feel the same way you do, Irene...I think that the heavy stuff should remain in the bedroom, or at least in privacy. I've had friends that made out with their boyfriend RIGHT in front of me as if I wasn't even in the room (made me feel like a third wheel, really). I don't mind a hug, hand holding, or even a kiss on the lips, but anything more is just really disrespectful to the others around you, IMO.

I have no problem with it as long as your not tonguing your significant other down in public. I was in the grocery store one day standing in line and there was this couple just kissing away. There a time and place for everything.

I'll kiss my husband (a peck) in public and hug and hold hands, but I don't have a make out session with him. Also rubbing on your significant others butt while standing in line at stores looks bad and inappropriate especially when there's little kids around. Mainly I don't want to see it.

I agree with you guys.

i brought this discussion up because it was a topic on the radio today. One caller called in and said his five year old son asked him, why are they kissing? The boy was referring to two guys kissing in a grocery aisle. The father went up to the guys and told them to please not do that in the store because there are kids around, and since his son saw them kissing, he didn't want to have to explain to his five year old abt homosexuality, at least not yet. The guys got mad at the father and told him to mind his own business.

There was a couple in the supermarket yeaterday that was pushing the PDA limits to the max. Holding hands is fine, an occasional peck on the cheek is okay, but the joined at the hip, giggling, kissing and googly eyes thing is a bit much.
No two people should be that happy to be at the Food Emporium at 2:00 on a Sunday afternoon.

Hey, maybe there was huge sale????:p j/k

exactly. at the grocery store...gimme a break. If people are like that in public they must be trying to prove something.

Believe me, if my local Food Emporium had a big sale on items that I actually need, I'd grab the manager and give her a PDA she would never forget.

:eek: :eek: :D :lol:

I do not agree with you:eek: :rolleyes: :rolleyes:

*agrees with teh almighty irene, mmk?*

a peck on the cheek or something or a quick kiss is fine, but 5 minute long make outs are a little inapprotiate for public.

I've always had a feeling that when couples that slobber all over each other in public, it's dudsville in their bedroom.

I agree with those of you who said a quick kiss is ok. Making out, bad. It's not necessary to make out in a public place, at least wait until you get back home...or even to the car. :lol:

Only problem I have with it is that I get jealous when I see it :)

Except when they're eating each other's faces. Calm down and get a room.

PDA is gross. Like everyone's said, a hug, hand holding, a peck is fine, but damn....I did not go to the store to see porn.

I've never had a boyfriend yet so I don't know personally, but I do feel uncomfortable when other people go to the extreme.

Just the other night I was at the Brewers game and there was this couple sitting at one of these tables in the concourse area. The guy was sitting in the chair and the lady was sitting on his lap facing him strattling her legs around him! They weren't doing anything else- like kissing or even worse, but just the way she was sitting on him looked bad. This wasn't even a young couple (like teens) they were at least 35 I'd say!

It can be fine just as long as it doesn't look like they are about to have sex with each other. I am talking about the couples who get all hot all over each other in public places (grocery stores, schools, post offices, and the like).

I don't really see too much of it among adults, to be honest. I remember when I was in high school, I would see the teen couples get all hot and heavy and french kiss in the hallways. At my college/workplace, I don't see that as much. The couples I have seen usually are only holding hands or just general kissing or pecking.

I've been in a movie theater where a couple went all the way. :rolleyes:
:eek: :lol:

I may sound old fashioned , but, ANYTHING past hand holding is not something you should be doing anywhere except behind closed doors.... or in a tent in the rain....in front of a fireplace while it snows lightly outside ...or.... oops sorry, got carried away :eek:

I totally agree with you. Some people just have no respect for others.

Ewwww, those are sooooooo gross

Somebody needs to buy that couple some porn videos for Christmas.

That kind of stuff makes me absolutely sick. It even bugs me if it's done in a park or something, because that's a public place, where there's often lots of kids and stuff, and they don't need to be seeing a bunch of ass grabbing, and slobbering all over the place, when all they really want to do at the park is run around and play. I remember seeing that kind of **** as a kid while hanging out with my parents, and it always felt so embarrassing, and ackward. Even back then I was like geez, have a little respect for others, and get a damn room!!! That's what they were created for.

I'm a "GET A ROOM" person. OMG I don't understand people that feel that they have to make out in public. It's funny that a lot of you were talking about people going at it in grocery stores. I was a night manager in a supercenter and people would do that a lot, some in front of their own kids!!! I mean, wouldn't you throw up if you saw your parents making out? ewwwwwww Is there something erotic about canned goods? LOL

I love hugging in public,holding hands,etc............

Very much so.........
