    Do you hold hand and kiss your partner in public? Were you bullied when did you do that before?

    When I was dating a girl because I was trying to change my sexuality we made out all the time in school.

    Ewww lol. :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes: I actually don't like public displays of affection. I don't like the idea of someone hanging all over me either lol.. I'm big on personal space and being conservative in public. It would be the same if I liked women also.

    I don't kiss my boyfriend in public usually. It's not that I don't want to, or because it's frowned upon, but I don't normally like watching people kiss so I don't do it. There's nothing wrong with quick pecks on the cheek or mouth, though. We do hold hands sometimes, but I'm a fair bit taller than him so it's kind of hard in that way.

    When the times call for it, sure, I would. I just don't feel the need to display it to the public. I mean, I guess if we were trying to prove a point we would but I would prefer our relationship to be conservative. That being said, i'm big on flirting. So that would be ongoing most likely.

    I used to hold hands with my (now ex) boyfriend, but we never kissed in public, mostly because I was still in the closet.

    Not yet, because I don't have one, and yes I would hold hands in public, although not kiss, except for maybe a greeting or goodbye peck.

    And I would only do either of these things while open carrying.

    Hand holding is totally fine. Quick kisses are ok when not in the presence of authority figures like parents, family, teachers, bosses, etc. I think there are special circumstances that allow for a more passionate kiss in public (somebody returning from/leaving for the army, leaving for college, engagements/weddings). Maybe not a full on make-out session, but something more romantic than just a peck...

    For the most part, I think that type of stuff should be left indoors. I don't want to see other people trying to stick their tongues down each other's throats, so why would they want to see me do it (unless they're straight guys of course)?

    My gf and I hold hands and cuddle in public. I am not much for kissing in public either. It has nothing to do with us being a lesbian couple though. I just think it should be private. We have not been bullied, but we have gotten a few dirty looks from older men. I do live in the Bible Belt though so it is to be expected. For the most part, people don't care. There are always going to be a few that do though. You just have to learn to ignore them.

    On the rare occasion I do have a BF, most of the time THEY didn't want to, but I have and I've had people give us looks but never said anything....which is good, ya know, for them. Cause I have this slight anger management issue and let's just say....I'd take it all out on them

    I've never had a relationship, only made out with guys/girls at parties. But, if I was in a relationship, I don't see any problem with kissing in public. It's a free country. If I see two people kissing each other in public, well.. I don't really know what to say. It just doesn't bother me in the slightest. They're not directly affecting anyone else by doing it. If they want to, why try and oppress them? I see no problems with it whatsoever.

    Hold hands? Yes yes yes. I'm a hand holder. I've grown up with my parents holding hands all the time so it is just ingrained in me.

    Kiss? Even if I was straight, a quick hello/goodbye kiss would be it. Passionate kissing and stuff. . . Just go get a room, you know where that is heading anyway.

    Yes. We held hands, held each other, kissed, and made out...BUT we were in what would be the "gay" side of town.

    Sumtimes we still got rude remarks, but more often we had people cheer us on or try to pick us up.

    I have held hands with other girls before but then I was bullied because of it so I don't really display affection publicly anymore

    ^This ^ I find it hard to understand what people find wrong about other people kissing in public.
    I mean it's not like they're having sex in front of you or anything.
    A kiss, even French, can be purely romantical.
