Is it OK for lovers if they hug, kiss, caress in public places. Yesterday, in a corridor of Mall I saw a boy kissing her g/f and his hands were everywhere in her body, he even pressed boobs. At that time, that corridor was not full of people, but still there were occasional by passer like me. I was thinking they can do this thing in some private place instead in full public glare. May be I am jealous for not having such guts to declare I am having Gal.
What do you think?

PDA...i am totally against it....especially the one you described. personally i feel these people are inconsiderate....and have a major ego problem....they equate it higher society (culture) in reality it's slutty. next time you see that.....interrupt them and ask them to get a hotel room.

I don't think there's anything wrong with PDA, as long as the people in question remain clothed. I think that grabbing body parts in public is a bit tacky but I also think that if it offends people, then people have the ability and the right to look in another direction.
My husband and I get attitude from people about PDA all the time, and all we do is kiss, give the occasional hug and hold hands. If people have a problem with me holding hands with my spouse, I'm very sorry, but I'm not going to behave coldly towards him for the benefit of people I don't know and will never cross paths with again!
Edit: Saying "Get a room!" is very rude. Please don't stoop to that level. It's just as tacky as making out in public. My husband and I do not make out in public, but people have screamed that at us for, get this, HOLDING HANDS. And no, we don't live in some overly conservative third-world country--we live in the US!

Anything that attracts the attention of others is tacky. Etiquette is all about making other people feel comfortable, and full-on making out as you describe makes others uncomfortable.
Holding hands, a quick (non-passionate!) kiss, a quick hug are all okay, but making out in a back corridor of the mall? T-A-C-K-Y!

I think that they should save that behavior for a private room, not a public place.
Holding hands or a hug might be okay in some instances, but not groping in public. It's just rude.

I think limited PDA is okay: hug, hold hands. But making out and touching various places is not okay in public. It's annoying to see.

A hug, a kiss and holding hands is fine. Anything beyond that should be in private.

I think it shud not b thr. It turns me on a lot n makes me feel uncomfortable in public. Ur not jealous dear. Ur normal n they hv no other place to do such stuff.I've caught ppl like, a girl licking the guy, sitting on him and inserting her hands inside his dress,... its like so gross.

its TRASHY. thats all there is to it. a little peck here and there or hugging is acceptable. but making out or blatantly feeling each other up belongs at home, in the trailer park.
and no youre its not a jealousy issue - ive been with my fiance forever and we both conduct ourselves like respectable people. thank you on behalf of the rest of society for feeling the way you do.
:o)

I think groping each other in public shows lack of respect for themselves & for other people. Some things are best kept private.

Holding hands, arm around the waist, peck on the lips or cheek is OK. Anything more makes others very uncomfortable.
