Public display of affection or PDA
as they are called, is the act wherein two people do an intimate act in
public. It could be a couple kissing or two girls holding hands, it is anything that displays affection between two people.
PDA's
are part of every relationship but it is something that should be done
responsibly so it is best to learn the rules. The limits of what is
acceptable and isn’t must be kept in mind. Do not cross the line. As a
rule of thumb, keep your PDA limited to things that you can see from
other people without feeling the need to turn away. If you don’t want to
see others conducting themselves in a certain way, chances are the
feeling is mutual.
Holding
hands, a goodbye kiss, putting hands on each others’ waist constitute
PDA that’s fine and not rude at all. A man placing his hand on her
shoulders suggests they’re a couple and not inherently offensive.
Anything that isn’t intimate enough and would not make people around you
uncomfortable and grossed out is okay.
Excessive
babying like two adults feeding each other and grooming one another can
upset even the strongest of stomachs. Ass smacks, used sparingly and
with humor would be okay but it’s a risky endeavor so might as well do
it with caution. Too much PDA is definitely frowned at, majority finds
this practice so off especially if being done by people they have high
regard for.
Beautiful
Host BH and her friend FR have lost a show together allegedly as a
result of too much PDA’s on the set. Everyday, the two, who got
introduced to each other and whose relationship bloomed while on the
show, would kiss passionately, embrace and did other intimate acts as
if the set was their private space, to the utter annoyance and
discomfort of people around them. Their co-hosts in the show had long
been grossed out by the couple’s behavior and thus telegraphed their
sentiments to the bosses concerned.
Lesson learned: Couples should act in accordance to the culture of the place they are in. What about you?
"What
works in a relationship of very public people is not making the
relationship public - keeping it as personal as it can be. It`s the only
way it is real." Salma Hayek
