Do you think people should only be affectionate in private?

I think that there are things that should only be done in private, but I think that public displays of affection can help a relationship. If my husband refused to hold my hand in public I would think that he was embarrased by me. Another example is kissing. This can be done in public. I am not suggesting that it be a overly passionate kiss, but a kiss on the lips or cheek is fine. Hugs are good everywhere. They show love, friendship, and they are good for your health. (in my opinion) I hope this helps

I think there's different levels of being affectionate in public. I don't see one thing wrong with holding hands, a quick hug or kiss, or even walking with the guy's hand around her shoulder or waist. The other level should be kept at home, or in private...that would be long deep kissing, fondling, and stuff like that. While I do like to see people in love showing their love to the world, I think it crosses the line for public displays of affection to be too showy...and by that I mean when the people around them feel like they're a voyeur or watching the beginning of a p*orn movie or something lol.

No, I think people should show how much they care and love each other especially in a marriage. It is important for children to see their parents hold each other, hold hands, affectionate kisses, etc...in public. Children see adults fight often, they also need to observe parents kissing and making up. I do not think it's okay for "couples" to grope each other in public. There is a time and a place for that. I'm talking about soft gentle caresses, small hugs, and being able to observe obvious affection for each other in public places.

Yes I think so. Because I strongly believe that it is a very private thing.
