[the truth]

is this becoming acceptable or more the norm nowadays to see men or women snogging on the streets

all this talk of legislating for everything is one thing, but social behaviour and human behaviour cannot always be legislated for

is homosexuality still something kept behind closed doors more than out in the open. would gay people ion this site feel comfortable snogging on the street or in a restaurant? would hetro people feel comfortable doing that? would you feel comfortable seeing 2 men or women snogging anywhere

also the actual act of anal sex. is this something you now find more natural and quite simply something some men do.

[Benjamin]

Regardless of sexuality there is a time and a place for full on snogging.

I think it's still something that's mostly done behind closed doors. Baby steps, really. Until the law adequately protects gay people, I don't imagine many gay people would feel comfortable being openly affectionate. But to be honest, you don't see that many heterosexual people doing public displays of affection either, I think it's generally accepted that it's a bit gross regardless of who's doing it

[Livia]

Like Ben, I think there's a time and a place. However, if people want to express their love I don't see any difference whether it's a man and a woman, two women or two men.

I'd rather not see anal sex in the street, no

Both sexes can and do take part in anal sex so I have no idea why you only mentioned men in your post.

As to snogging in the street well I don't have a problem with anyone doing it, it's not something I personally do but each to their own.

No idea what anal sex has got to do with anything

I'd imagine it depends on the area you're in whether two gay men or women would feel comfortable doing it, probably depends on the types of people they are too (whether they give a sh*t what other people think or not). I would like to think most people wouldn't think twice about it if they saw it happening but I imagine there's still some who make comments

[MTVN]

I see no reason for any couple to snog each other in public, a quick peck on the cheek is the maximum public display of affection that is acceptable

[Lee.]

I feel a bit queasy seeing folk with their tongues down each other throats regardless of their gender.

And people tend to have anal sex in private (again, regardless of gender) so it's none of my business really.

This.

I always think it's nice when you see same sex couples holding hands in the street but then get really self conscious about not wanting to seem like I'm staring at them for the wrong reasons so either don't take a second look or smile at them so they know I'm not judging

When I lived in Germany I used to see lots of lesbian couples openly doing PDA on the main streets, it was a bit surprising but where I lived was a very multicultural sort of place so it didn't really seem odd

[Vanessa]

It doesn't bother me.

[MTVN]

Oh if we're talking about lesbians it's alright

a bit of handholding is probably as far as most people get in public unless you are under 16 then it's a bit of a awkward clinch in a shopping centre, as witnessed by my very own eyes the other day. Anal sex is not something you will see in a bus queue so I wouldn't worry too much about it.

off topic I used to read Zee as Zee and now I see he has been Zed all along. It doesn't feel right.

I say the letter 'z' as 'zed', to complicate things!

I dislike all public affection tbh, short of a hug/holding hands. I don't much care who its between, I dont want to see anyone snogging
