Is PDA okay?

Public display of affection is defined by people in so many ways. I think holding hands or seeing someone with their hands around another person’s waist is fine. There are people who take it to the extreme.

Would I want to see people making out? No. I have a child and there are things I don’t want his innocent eyes to see at his age. As for me, I should not have to see any couple getting down like that. I think it is a respect issue. How much do you respect yourself and the person you are with? If there is some degree of respect then PDA will be limited to holding hands and maybe even a peck, but not a lot of tongue action or lip locking and fondling right?

What do you think?

I believe pda is sometime overlooked and sometimes underlooked (Is that a word?) Anyways. I believe its ok for a couple to hold hands at lunch at school, and I believe that the male should be allowed to have his arm around her while they sit. However, I draw the line when I see a couple making out in the hallway.I believe that couples if they choose to do that, should do it in private. I’m ok with telling someone who I like, but I am not gonna start making out and stuff with her in front of everyone. To me that would be way to open, I would be embarrassed honestly. That is private stuff, its not for the public eye to see.

There’s a couple at my school who licks stuff off each others face at lunch… GROSS!!  There’s another one who just hugs with the occasional makeout. I choose couple 2

I think that if someone wants to express themselves in the form of PDA, then they should be able to. Got a problem, don’t look. They have the right to show off their love if they please. But that’s just my opinion.

I think its wrong..I mean nobody wants to see people all over each other in public.. its kinda gross. holding hands, hugging, or a little kissing is okay but when you start touching or sticking your tongue down each others throat thats a little too much. That is your personal business and it should stay personal.

I think that PDA should be limited because you and whomever you are with should not be displaying your affection everywhere.  I think there is a time and a place for all of the ways you show your affection toward who you are with. I also think that having sex in public places shows how mature and conservative you are.

If it’s ok with both of you, I think PDA is fine. Not to the extent of having sex in public of course, but like making out. Don’t do it in middle of a crowd, but if you’re both comfortable with it, then it’s not a problem with your relationship, it’s a problem with other people not wanting to see it. Don’t say it’s a respect issue in a couple unless you really mean it and don’t say it just because you don’t want to see it. One person in the couple should tell the other if it’s not ok with them, but if it’s ok with both of them, to the extent of making out, I personally think it’s fine. I’m talking strictly about the couple’s feelings towards each other, not the public norm or what other people think about it. Of course, most people unless they never get to do anything, would not want to see it, so I’m not saying you should do it, but I am saying that it doesn’t neccessarily mean that there is a problem in the relationship if you do do PDA.

PDA is ok to a certain extent.
it really depends on your definition of “public”.
because you could technically be in public, but at the same time your not standing in the middle of a crowd. know what i mean? i guess the answer to this would depend on the person. or the people around you.

I think to much PDA is wrong. To hold hands, maybe give a pop kiss or just hug is cool. I hate to be in a park, movies, or be eating out and see someone all over each other or have their tongue down each other’s throats.
