A public display of affection (sometimes abbreviated PDA) is physically demonstrating affection for another person while in the view of others, for example, holding hands or kissing in public (for more far-reaching forms, see indecent exposure). Many cultures have written and unwritten rules for showing affection in public.

This behavior is sometimes considered in bad taste, and in some jurisdictions it may even be criminal.

If the partners enjoy being seen, it may be considered a mild form of exhibitionism. Alternatively, they may be indifferent to being seen, and therefore not inhibited by it. Finally, the partners may prefer more privacy, but put up with being seen because they have no better place, or do not want to bother to go there, or to wait until they are there. Different inclinations toward PDA can cause tension between partners.

The same amount of intimacy is a lesser form of PDA if it is in a secluded place with few people around, in a dark place such as a movie theater, in a car, etc.

Some people disapprove of or are disgusted by it, but some find it pleasant to view, in a mild form of voyeurism.

In some societies, certain couples need to be quite careful about public displays of affection. For example, homosexual couples would be at risk of encountering aggression from homophobic onlookers. As a result of this, many gay rights activists have used public displays of affection as a means of defiance, treating them as political acts. In many places around the world, couples of differing race, religion or tribe may be subject to similar problems.
