People Should Kiss More In Public
Kissing in public is fun and it is a great way to show someone how much you love them. People should kiss more in public and stop worrying about what others think.

There's nothing Wrong With Kissing in Public
Unless You Were Snogging A Dog Or A Cat
Then That might Cause Problems

Oh, definitely. It's a great way of showing off that special guy or gal that you're so happy to be with.

(minor) Kissing, holding hands, and (minor) hugging is public shouldn't be argued against. Making out I can see problems with. But a brief hug, (or even a prolonged hug) or a fairly brief kiss shouldn't really bother anyone...

If you don't want to watch it, then don't stare at it. Ignore them.

Really, I don't see people's problems with minor handholding, hugging, and kissing (not too long, nothing sexual, etc). What if you're on a date with someone at a restaurant or an amusement park? Shouldn't you be allowed to hug and kiss, even if it's in public?

Kissing in public is great. Prolonged kissing is a bit awkward for the spectators. Get a room ! Would my friend say...
No kisses at all between husband & wife in public is being shy or too prude.

I do not think there is anything wrong with public display of affection. As long as it doesn't go too far. I don't think couples should worry what others think, most of them are just jealous that they don't have someone to do that with. I find it very romantic and loving. To just kiss anywhere shows that you truly do love that person and can't wait until you get somewhere private.

Yes, and gay men and lesbians should be accepted as OK if their should give their beloved a quick kiss while waiting for the red light to turn green or when celebrating a birthday or anniversary.............just as opposite-gender couples do.

I agree! I don't see anything wrong with kissing in public. It isn't that offensive. People don't want to walk around with their partners and be afraid to show any affection just because of other people. There isn't nudity involved and it's just a display of affection, like holding hands.

PDA is sick. Every time I turn a corner I see a couple making out and I hate it. It's okay to love someone and to show them, but please make it on your own time. Don't bring your personal life into mine. I know some people are very openly affectionate, but some of us are not. I'm not a big fan of open emotions, and I know I'm not the only one.

That's fine if you are an extrovert, or when a couple is foot loose and fancy free. We all posses the ability to be physically affectionate.

If you are the opposite, someone more introverted, public displays of affection, will be torture.

Yeah, no. Were in public, you have to respect other people. Some people are offended by it, and that does matter. We all have to use public spaces, so respect that fact and keep that stuff for private areas. To be fair though, in certain public places that will be acceptable. It all just depends on what public space your talking about. In a Best Buy? Not appropriate. At a romantic restaurant? Appropriate.

No way. I do not think that people should kiss more in public. To begin, it is disrespectful. No one wants to see you lip locking with another person. In today's society, people do not know how to simply kiss in public. Usually when they do kiss each other, they are usually only one step away from having sex and no one wants to see that. A simple peck is okay, but anything more should not be done. People should respect others and kiss each other in private. Kissing is a great way to show your feelings towards another person, but it should be between you two only. No one else needs to see it.

 wel, if its just lips touching, thats just affectionate.

if its tongues, then, holy cow. get a room spare the eyeballs.
plus, if kids might be watching then, tongues is too much.

People should kiss less in public. Public space belongs to everybody, and that includes me and I don't want to see that.

On a more serious note, kissing for many individuals is a private act and should not be exposed to those who don't want to be exposed to that. Although many don't have any real problem with a couple showing their affection in public, and many would say a little kissing is ok, when it gets to be so egregious that its like you are sucking their face-skin off, I can see why some people would not want to be part of that.

See, that's exactly what you're saying is wrong. You're saying, people shouldn't worry about what other people think, which, right now, is that you shouldn't kiss in public. However, if everyone thought people should kiss in public, people would be pressured to kiss to be accepted by other people. I think it's solely the decision of the people themselves whether or not they're comfortable with PDA (Public Displays of Affection, that is).

A personal thing should be maintained personal and it should not be brought to the forefront of general public. I agree that there is nothing like nudity in kissing but kissing your loved one consists of emotions and passions which the other people would not understand. Others would take it as a free movie and enjoy it thoroughly. They can pass some wrong comments which would not be apt for the judgment of your emotional ground. And apart from this, social codes should be kept in mind. You must think what the others are thinking by watching your kissing scene. Holding hands and kissing is complete different thing according to the density of affection. I feel strongly that kissing needs a high emotion wrapped with it. People would not give the proper value of your emotion and also you should not bring your private feeling in front of others.

Kissing in public is doing something very emotional and private in public. I agree that nudity is not involved in kissing but still there are people who take offense. I am a strong supporter of freedom but I still believe that you should keep the social codes. If kissing in public would be considered as OK then the extent of physical activity may get more intense in another 5 years and take the social boundaries with it.

What others think matters. Social decorum matters. It's embarrassing for other people when you kiss in public. You should have some regard for their feelings. Let's say two 70-year olds were standing at the bus stop kissing each other. Would you really want to be forced to watch it while you were waiting for a bus?
