Not much for the people prone to air kisses either.
But I was raised in a more traditional time... when you waited all year for pride, and the white party, and halloween, and the black & blue festival... and maybe a couple others.
PDA? I don't care

What on earth is an air kiss? lol I think I grasped the black and blue festival but you good sir talk in code.
I've never really known what to think of public displays of affection. If I'm in a relationship I have always typically differed to whatever my SO wants. That being said, there are several social settings in which I deem PDA inappropriate.For instance, I once went to a condo with a lady friend and her indirect family. I woke up one morning and got into a fascinating discussion of aqua dynamics with her uncle. By the time my friend woke up the discussion also involved her aunt and grand parents. She proceeded to plop down in my lap and smother me :blushed: the girl had no shame. Her grandmother later pulled me aside and explained appropriate times to display affection . Has anyone else experienced the wrath of a one who enjoys to smother? What are your takes on PDA?
Smartphones have all but made them obsolete. I never really cared for them myself and just preferred to write stuff on my hand.

It's just like any other social convention to me. People know what the general bounds are. Given, those bounds vary depending on situation. If a couple is going way over the top they're either inconsiderate pricks, trying to make an obnoxious statement to someone(s) (family?), or something truly amazing just happened and they can't help themselves.
Two out of three of those make you an asshole in my book. So, I guess a majority of the time I'm not a fan.
