Hello,
I am wondering your thoughts on PDA. Do you or don't you... and why?
Thanks!
Depends on what you mean by PDA....

.....Melyssa and I will walk down the street arm in arm, hug if we're meeting or leaving each other for awhile, etc. but that's about all the PDA I'm comfortable with. As my hubby we hold hands, hug or kiss when we meet or leave each other and walk arm in arm but I'm not overly affectionate by nature.
Light, love and laughter,
Lynne

MsMike,
I don't care much to watch PDA, but I sure love to receive it. Humans are affectionate creatures, I see no reason to pretend we are not, in order to satisfy those who wish to pretend there is something wrong with showing we love one another. If people don't like seeing it, they always have the option of looking away.
Love always,
Elizabeth

I don't often instigate PDA apart from holding hands but am the recipient, usually done to embarrass me, I feign embarrassment but I secretly like it a little bit
Love,
Curly.

LOL Curly, you and me both! I was raised by a rather severe German woman (Mom) who would tell me that ladies don't cry in public so if I was going to cry I should go to my room. She was not a person that tolerated PDA so it's not natural for me but I'm getting better <G>!
Light, love and laughter,
Stormy

Yeah, my family weren't big on PDA either! Must be a European thing, lol!

^ Ditto, and my parents are of German (dad) and Italian (mom) descent . . . what a combination, eh?!
Broke that mold long time ago, love to hold hands or link arms together, etc., especially while he and I are out.
When Virginia and I are out, we don't generally have PDA in public (especially locally), mostly just so that Virginia can blend in and not draw unwanted attention to herself. Lately, whenever we've been out it has been locally, and I almost always see some of my 'customers' and occasionally a co-worker. They know I'm married to B, but they don't need to know about Virginia. It's on a need-to-know basis, and I've yet to meet someone (boss, co-worker or otherwise) who has the right to know what goes on in my personal life.

When I was younger I enjoyed the theater of extreme PDA. Or maybe I was just a horny boy. Nowadays when I think of it it is usually in the context of affection for my kids, and since it mortifies them, I avoid it.

AS long as I'm the object of it, I'm all for it!

I love it as long as it's not over the top. But mostly I love having my hand held in public. I think it's such an outward display of intimacy and affection.

Oh, I love all the little thigs about being a woman...Having my hand held...an arm around my waist...a quick kiss, snuggling while slow dancing...nithing crass, tho...going overboard usually means someone is quite insecure...usually.
