Showing affection in public

Yes, I have seen it, and no I do not mind it. Yes, I would do it. I would like to point out though that public affection can be taken too far and that goes to everyone no matter what your orientation is or what you identify yourself as. I have a perfect example.

Working in a restaurant for as many years as I have I have seen so many couples like making out at the table. I am not talking about just a kiss. I am talking about full blown making out where it is obvious that they need to get a bedroom. This is taking public affection too far in my own opinion! Kissing is one thing, slobbering all over each other is another. Take that to the bedroom please.

 

Seen? Yes. Have I? Not with another girl. Would I? Sure, if we were in a relationship.

Mind, it depends on what kind of "kissing"/"affection" we're talking about here. Nothing wrong with a little kissing/cuddling on the same side of a booth table. When you start getting into "get a room" territory, I really don't care who is participating, it's generally not appropriate for public spaces.

 

I have seen PDA with glbtq couples. Here's my thing though, my partner and I try to imagine what we'd be comfortable with our kids seeing and keep that to our PDA. Gay or straight we'd never be okay more than hand holding or light kissing and playful flirting in front of our kids and I have see her say something to all kinds of couples being just generally disrespectful. Esp of kids (not just ours) are around.

 

My girl and I dont care what people think of us in public, we hold hands, kiss each other hello/goodbye/i love you when we feel. Have we gotten strange looks?...Yes. Have we pulled unwanted attention from overzealous men?.....Yes. Have we been the target of bigots?.....Yes. Would either of us hide ourselves or our love ever again?.....Never. We've been through too much to ever hide it again. They don't like, fine, you don't have to watch now do you lol.

(*hug*)

 

erm.. two guys kissing hmm... nope, Have I done it... Hellz noo, Will I do it you must be kidding ? well maybe in a gay friendly city like Madrid I would lols other cities nope.

 

I don't remember ever seeing a gay couple kissing in public, aside from when going to pride. I've never done it. As for whether I would do it or not would just depend on how the other person felt about it.

 

nope never see lgbt ppl kiss ,i feel embarrassed to kiss my bf out in public bc i have this thinking that we`re making a porno ,which isn't appropriate. So we kiss in private but we hold hands tho

 

I completely would do it if he wanted~

 

Yes yes and yes. I'm just realizing I don't think I've ever seen a homosexual couple kissing/showing affection where I live *now*, but where I grew up it was totally the "gay district" and it was completely common and normal, actually.

I've never really felt iffy about showing affection in public, I can't count the number of times my ex and I kissed or cuddled in public, restaurants, parks, movies, etc. I never noticed any negative reactions from anyone.

 

Yes, yes, yes.

 

Can't say I have seen any so it would catch me off guard when I actually do but I don't care otherwise its just another couple.

 

I haven't. I would be affectionate, though

 

No, I haven't seen any gay couples kiss in public. I don't know, if I would myself. Depends on the location and how many people are there. A hug would be fine, no one ever pays attention to women hugging in public. Kissing is a bit risky. Maybe try to sneak a quick peck on the lips while no one is watching.

 

Yes to the three of them. I have seen it pretty often in both Madrid and London and I done it in both cities.

You may get some funny looks and turn some heads. But in most of the cases, people do not care. If we want it to be normal someday someone has to break the norm I guess.

But to be honest, as many others have pointed out i don't thing it is right for couples of any orientation to engage into anything more than hugging/holding hands/ or light kissing. I find anything more than that a bit out of place in a public environment

 

I've seen lots of lgtb couples kiss on public. Maybe it's because I live on a big city.
I don't have a girlfriend, but if I did, I wouldn't do it- I'm way too shy and I can't stand people staring.

 

I saw a lesbian couple kissing, I've never been in a steady relationship and I'd be too scared to.

 

I don't think I've ever seen a gay couple kissing in public. I've seen two girls holding hands in the hall at school, but I'm not entirely sure if they're a couple or not (even though I'm pretty sure one of them is bi). I do wish other gay couples would be more open in public around here though, it would help me feel less alone!

I'm not against being affectionate in public, there's just things that I'm not willing to do depending on the place and such. In places where there's a lot of strangers, I'd be happy to hold my girlfriend's hand or have a quick kiss (haven't kissed anybody in public yet, I'm just saying I'm not against the idea). However, if we're surrounded by friends or people we know, like at a party or in the hallway everyone hangs out in after school, we'll end up being slightly more cuddly than usual when we're sitting together. I'm not going to make out with my partner in public though, no matter what gender.

 

I've never seen a gay kiss in public, apart from the first time I kissed a guy in this club the other week.

Wasn't really paying attention to how people were reacting at the time but just after when we left the dancefloor some girl started arguing with the guy I was with. I told her to fuck off and sort of pulled him away from the argument.

I don't think there's anything wrong with kissing if you're in somewhere like a club, and I'd do it again whatever anyone else thought, it was nice! :icon_bigg

 

i have seen couples french kissing, heard them discussing what they're going to do with each other in public and think it's disgusting, what they do in private is they're business but it should BE private. that goes for all couples.a quick kiss, hug or hand holding fine. i have and will do that.
