Showing affection around family, friends or in public... Question?

You have to be comfortable with actions in public....do the things the way you want to

But I think if the straight can do that even we can do!!!

 

I think people should be able to be comfortable wherever (within reason) and with whoever~ If i had a boyfriend i would want to shiw affection wherever we were, i always show affection to people, like i will hug people goodbye and stuff and if i see a shop i want to visit or something i will grab their hands and pull them instead of just saying i want to go there~

I think some people get embarassed by people seeing them >.<

 

IMO straight people need to see MORE pdas from the gays, not less. You know, so they'll get used to it.

 

Now, how can I say this without upsetting anyone.

I don't like seeing ANYONE kissing in public. Any gender or orientation.
I'm not talking about the peck on the cheek, I'm on about the full-on snog.
I see it as the next step to sex and would rather it was kept private.

But that's just my conservative view.
Holding hands is affectionate and something different.

Perhaps I'm being too miserable, but as I say, it's just my opinion.

 

Personally I hate egregious PDAs.

Hugging, kissing and holding hands is beautiful for any couple.

But making out and groping and dry humping essentially is a total nono, regardless of who is doing it (gay or straight couples) in my opinion. "Get a room" totally applies here.

 

I suggest yes, if you want to walk with your boyfriend and hold hands, go right on ahead, but be careful when you are in highly rural or non-supportive areas. Remember the couple in NYC who got beaten up for holding hands, remember Matthew Shepard and all the rest. Hold hands, hug and other such affectionate things but I wouldn't suggest going to romantic.
It's one thing if people are staring at you, another entirely if they beat you up.
Be cautious.

 

I would have no problem being affectionate with my girlfriend in public or in front of family and friends. They have to accept that I'm gay and going out with a girl, if we get married they are going to see us kiss at our wedding so they might as well get used to it.

 

Honestly this is the Bullshit I can't stand (excuse my french :*** I walk outside , I even come from work late at night I'm on the damn train I'm on the bus at the mall and straight people show affection all the time sometimes a little too much some times it's cute but I am jealous of them they can show affection and no one bats an eye . But me showing affection to my girlfriend like holding her hand hugging her kissing her causes a stir and makes people uncomfortable . :tantrum: give me a break ! , I put up with most of my life watching straight people slobber each other and I can't do it ? That's straight people getting off on straight privilege if you ask me :dry:
Now I don't like showing affection in public it wouldn't matter my orientation I will not do french kissing in public . But I will hold hands , hugs a light kiss on the lips it's all fine .
but If my family said my girlfriend and I couldn't show affection , or we had to fake being friends I wouldn't talk to them after that you can't accept me well then you don't need me good bye . Because I've seen my straight relatives get away with a lot and I mean a lot to where one of my cousins was having sex with her boyfriend in the next room and no one batted an eye . :tantrum:

 

I have no issues with PDA (within civilized bounds). Either seeing it or being a participant. Straight, gay or other.

 

This reminds me of something funny. My sister and I look like we're the same age (I have a baby face and am super short), so sometimes when we hang out together we get dirty looks from people, and I'm assuming they think we're gay. Neither of us is straight and we probably both give off that vibe anyway. So anyway, just to mess with people, we'll hold hands and kiss each other on the cheek and people stare even more, when in reality we're just doing sister stuff :roflmao: Never gets old.

Anyway, when I have a girlfriend I won't hesitate to show affection with her in public just as I would if I were straight. Nothing over the top, cause no one likes that regardless of sexual orientation. But simple stuff like holding hands, hugging, quick kisses etc, I don't care what people think, let them stare
