PDA: How Far Would You Go?

PDA: How Far Would You Go?

by Aamyko 14th January 201112:44

 

A lot of us have a boyfriend/partner/hubby etc.. and sometimes when we are feeling romantic there is nothing better than just grabbing his hand and walking slowly down the street. Many think this sounds nice and would totally do it in public, however there are some that cringe at the idea of any PDA. (Public Display Of Affection) Is it really that bad to show someone how much you care for them in public by innocently holding their hand, kissing them gently on the lips or stroking thier bottom while you both stroll around town?


It seems as though straight people can get away with a whole lot more than gays when it comes to PDA's. But seriously I think we need to draw the line somewhere. Last week I was on the tube and there was this couple sucking face and it was just beyond annoying. Do we allreally need to see that much affection in public? There were many on the tube that had that "Get A Room" look in their eyes. In London it's quite an everyday thing to see gay couples holding hands and sometimes even kissing on the streets. BUt is all this dispaly of affection really necesarry or just for show?

 

 

This is where you all come into play the wonderful Mancentral blog readers. Do you have a problem with PDA or would you like to do a bit more of it? How much is too much and should there be a limit as to what we should be doing in public? Have your say!

How far would I go!

Plain and simple. With bodies that those two have. I would go all the way.
They are very nice indeed.

I like PDA but I agree, sucking each others face off in public can be more of a attention seeking thing rather then a love thing. Although it might be annoying/gross to some to see others "at it" so to seek, I don't really care as I know I would do the same and have done just because it can be fun and you only live once! lol

There is no problem with showing affection to someone of the same sex as long as it is done for the correct reasons and not to just 'show off' that you are GAY and try and push it down others throats, dont forget not everyone approves of us....do they?

Dunno what to say about the whole PDA thing but all I know is that the guy in this pic (not the one down on his knee kissing his stomach, the other one)is SO DAMN HOT! I wanna fuck him senseless & rimm his beautiful ass. SO horny.

I'm all for showing the same amount of affection as the straights. The more we do it the more they might accept it, as long as we don't go OTT. Holding hands and light kissing has got to be acceptable, otherwise we are all kidding ourselves about equality. Mmmmm kissing!! bring it on.

However much I loved him, I'd try to wait until we got into bed as we could then really let ourselves go without fear of interruption.

we should have the same rights as the Staights when we are out and about , As I think it is wrong because when thay are doing in the Street I just feel sick and would like to ask them to stop and do it where i done have to see it .Than's I think we are the same as them .

I regularly hold hands and kiss in public, it is not a showing off thing just an affection thing.
If straight people can do it then why can't we?
I say that seeing we are searching for equality in this world, PDA should not be frowned upon now.

Enjoy and live life, we only have one. Enjoy you and what you have I say.

There is nothing wrong with a little "bottom rubbing" and a kiss when meeting, straight people do it with no comment so Gay People should have same freedom

About the PDA thing, I think there is a time and a place for affection.... you dont need to be snogging the face off people ( gay or stright ). there seems to many people want to push it down our throats.... its not the done thing espically when kids are about.

I think it all down to a time and a place with PDA.  I don't think it should be any different because you are gay or straight.  holding hands and a quick kiss is fine, any time.  A bit more is ok too, but not really much more!  The only exception to the  rule is at Airports and train stations when you may be saying goodbye or welcome back - then a big snog is ok too - but not too full on - get a room!

I dont like pda, not with straight or gay couples. Save it for when your in private i say.
sometimes light pda is ok, like if you've had some good news and u go in for a hug, or if you're given a present or something and you give them a little kiss.
But full on sucking face or groping is just not something i want to see when im out and about.

Whether it is a guy and a girl or two guys or two girls, Kissing but not snogging, Holding hands or an arm around each other in public is ok, BUT ANYTHING more is not really acceptable and should be at home or in a nightclub.
Anyone who gropes in public cheapens themselves and there partner ???.
Every adult has their own oppinion, The jeolous ones are those not getting hot passionate sex.
My problem is if there are CHILDREN AROUND who will see any untoward attention between 2 people groping each other,

i think sensual pictures make it easier for other gay people to express themselves,so the more you see the better.

I feel there are degrees to which I can tolerate other peoples' public displays of affection. No probs with holding hands, a gentle kiss on the lips or cheek, etc.its when peeps get heavy with it, and look as if the next thing they'd like to do is f--k each other, then I get embarrased & want them to disapear or discist! Its like don't do anything to frighten the horses or scare the children, OK! Nick(London.UK)

I am a 67 year old gay man, I believe holding hands,a greeting or good-bye kiss is harmless and all this is ok in front of children as all straight and gay are teachers of love and affection. Groping by anyone is not for the publics eye.

Holding Hands, a hug hello/hug goodbye, little kiss on the cheek is fine in public, but nothing more - in a gay social setting (gay club/venue/setting/event) perhaps a kiss on the lips or a cuddle is fine - anything else should be private - some countries such as in Dubai (UAE) have very strict rules about both straight and gay PDAs so we do have to be careful about the correct types of situations that we are in when we express affection in public

Acceptance of PDA from holding hands to whatever is dependent on the level of acceptance/mindset of the people/community where the couple showed that form of PDA

There is a difference between the right to do something and the need to do it . The right to be able to be open and accepted as a gay,bisexual, straight or trans-gender is just plain common sense; it is part of a reality that many have pretended otherwise over the centuries. However , everyone has differing tastes and preferences. It is unfair to foist personal tastes on those that are unfamiliar or uncomfortable with them - that is a form of bullying. In practical terms , hand-holding should not be too challenging to most and would probably be acceptable in adult company. In PDA terms , less is more !

Holding hands and hugs hello and hug goodbye is ok for me but all this of course depends on which country you are living in.

In a polite society such a display of affection could land you in jail.  There is such a thing as going too far. now don't get me wrong a set of studs like those I'd want to watch/help them go as far as they want. But me personally, I think a sweet kiss between lovers is sufficient display, keep the rest in the bedroom where it's meant to be displayed.
