A Public Display of Affection (PDA) is the physical demonstration of affection for another person (Spouse/Lover) while in the view of others. Holding hands, hugging or kissing in public are common examples of Public Displays of Affection.

To You Forumites, Is it a turn on or Is it for attention? Do you do it? And most importantly, why do you do it?

It can be both: turn-on and attention. I don't do it. It's kind of corny to me---get a room. undecided grin

This topic had been posted million times!

Anyways, there's nothing more annoying than a couple that can't keep their hands to themselves. It's just common courtesy to restrain yourself to what would be acceptable in a G rated movie. I don't want to be near people who are getting it on in public, it sickens me.

Ive recently been dating a guy who is very affectionate. When we re walking downtown he regularly pulls me to the side and starts kissing the heck out of me! I think I turned a few shades of red the first time that happened. If we re sitting at a resturant booth he often slides in next to me lays against me and reads the menu. Always hand holding, etc. This was a new thing to me and I kinda like it! I think public displays of affection are fine if its not overboard,like groping of somethin like that.

Re: Public Displays Of Affection In Relationships by Nobody: 11:10am On Jul 09, 2011
Ill never forget, I was on a trolley with my guy and there were no seats left so we had to stand. He stood over me to help keep our balance, gazing intently into my eyes. Stroking my arm, kissing me off and on while I held on to him and we looked out the window Damn!!! It was so intimate! The whole trolly was electric and people kept watching us. Very subtle, cool

Re: Public Displays Of Affection In Relationships by MsPotato(f): 2:48pm On Jul 09, 2011
I personally do not like to see other people smooching and eating each other up. To me its gross so I dont do it. But however, if its like holding hands or a small smooch is ok by me
Re: Public Displays Of Affection In Relationships by Nobody: 2:59pm On Jul 09, 2011

Re: Public Displays Of Affection In Relationships by Nobody: 3:03pm On Jul 09, 2011
I love PDA and have been guilty of taking it a bit too far sometimes. This reminds of John Legend's song, the chorus part when he says "we just don't care" is exactly how I felt smiley

[b]Duh, Got these Spanish kids living beside my space and anytime you find 'em outside their crib,they always stop just short of having full-blown sex,

I see more than enough everyday,in malls, in queues, banks, restaurants, and even on bridge railings! (like some kinda Scottish 15-16 year olds i saw

on the Clyde bridge sometime in February seriously necking while sitting on the edge of the railings, a couple of days later,newspapers reported that a

young couple were in an ''embrace'' and fell off about 60 meters into the river from almost the exact spot i'd seen those teens earlier.  undecided undecided

I take subtle public displays as an affectionate medium of showing-off and exhibiting your "blossoming" relationship to whoever cares to care (i've done

a bit of that anyways), but there's a thick line somewhere between showing your extent of affection and showing your extent of belly-churning

stupidity, If my girl stops in the middle of a public express road or on the railing of a suspension bridge and decides to brandish me a kiss there shocked she

can soooo expect a fisticuff and some good ol' military shoving!   grin  grin cool[/b]
Re: Public Displays Of Affection In Relationships by Nobody: 4:02pm On Jul 09, 2011
Lol @ "good ol' Military Shoving"! May that not be her portion! grin

if you are under 16, yay

if you are over 25, nayy

if you are between 16 and 25, depends on the situation and circumstances.
