I'm in a weird frame of mind tonight! I don't care much for the heavy duty face sucking in public, but I do like to see people showing gentle affection to eachother in public. And yes, when you are on a dark ride, what you do is between you, your date and the guy manning the security camera.

Lol (my apologies to the anti-Goonies Kar2oonMan if he happens to read this)

Affection is fine, but tongue hockey for minutes on end is not, you are subjecting other people to your behaviour in a Public Place. Although this is not as bad as someone standing on a Soap Box, spouting their political/religous/military whatever views. But remember other people are there. As well if you're making out on a Private Doombuggie that's one thing, but on the Monorail, that's another thing. (I'm just using rides as an example).
Originally Posted By Liberty Belle I was at a theme park on the weekend (not Disneyland, unfortunately, but the issue's the same) and as I stood in line, I couldn't look in any direction without seeing couples in their late teens/early twenties making out. I was with my 5-year-old nephew and frankly, it made me uncomfortable. I'm not a huge fan of PDAs anyway, but when it's happening from all angles you don't know where to look. You don't want to look like you're staring, but I don't have much interest in looking at my feet throughout a 30-minute queue either!

Originally Posted By mickey42397 <I can honestly say that in all my visits to WDW I've never seen a PDA that I considered out of line.> That is because it is too hot at WDW to even stand too close to another person, let alone be pressed up against them ! Really though, I never saw it either when I lived and worked there, at least not anything inappropriate. I guess it is a good way to pass time in a long queue, I never looked at it that way, but it is just rude when there are kids all around you, not to mention other people that have to stand reasonably close to you facing the same direction. Yuck.

We were waititng in line for TOT. There was a couple- who were about 15- Making out for who knows how long! I was about to say "Excuse me, can you guys get a room?!" Then I realized where we were...

Originally Posted By wonderingalice *LMAO* Awesome, SuzieQ! The women I worked with around the time of my 10-year (and first) reunion, told me that the guys would be fat and bald! It was so funny... While I was waiting for my husband to park the car and join me, the first person I saw was a guy I'd known and had classes with for years. He had played soccer, so he had a great patoot ;-) and this awesome, long-ish, beautiful brown, wavy hair. Well... 10 years later, he was fat and bald! I about busted out laughing thinking about what the ladies had told me - but restrained myself! At my 20th, a former cheerleader/singer/dance team member/homecoming queen I'd known since jr. high - still GORGEOUS, but nicer than she'd been in school - was now a minimum-wage hostess at a restaurant and living with a construction worker who oogled all the other women all night. I felt bad for her - always thought life would turn out well for someone as talented as she was.

Unless they are doing more than kissing, then most kids have probably already seen it. Hopefully kids have seen their parents kiss-- more than a peck. It's good for them to know that their parents are important to eachother, and that they love eachother.
Originally Posted By avromark <<opefully kids have seen their parents kiss-- more than a peck>> but hopefully nothing more then making out.
Originally Posted By RoadTrip <<opefully kids have seen their parents kiss-- more than a peck>> but hopefully nothing more then making out.>> There's nothing more fun than discretely hinting to your adult children what their parents had to engage in to get them. I just LOVE those EWWWWWEESSS... I can't even think about that!!
