For amusement purposes only

February 13th, 2007  |  Published in Entertainment, Humour, India & Around, Living  |  8 Comments

Stuff like this serves as much needed amuse­ment, and bring a smile to my face on an oth­er­wise seri­ously busy day!

The ques­tion that gets my atten­tion:
Should couple’s be allowed to kiss in pub­lic like in paris?

And then I read on…

Response 1
what is the harm in it? if the part­neres are loyal to each other & express their love to each other, place hardly mat­ters for such thing like kiss. if a mother can kiss her kid in a pub­lic place then why not a lover. — why not indeed!

Response 2
no man more you cover more you have the value. amer­ica is super power but cul­ture of usa is toooo dirty . india is devel­op­ing coun­try who cul­ture is world famous. so be indian mere bhai.having kiss at pub­lic place show no love it is show off. if paris kiss rate is high there div­o­roce rate is also high and there childerens with­out par­ents. — i am speechless!

Response 3
First of all the ques­tion thats shoots up is there a neces­sity to kiss in the public.Even though u luv your parter to that extent, express it pri­vately. Show­ing off ones love in pub­lic is not a good sign for a healthy rela­tion — what is the neces­sity to kiss at all, i ask?!

Response 4
there is no harm kiss­ing pub­li­cally but we should never for­get that it is not very safe doing any such activ­i­ties in our coun­try. If oyu kiss pub­li­cally in west­ern coun­tries no one even both­ers to look at you but if you do it in a place like patna in bihar you will definetly have to think about the con­siquences. No harm in express­ing our feel­ings but guys just be care­full while select­ing the place. — what smart advise!

Response 5
i think in a coun­try like india with our social struc­ture it would be dif­fi­cult. amen!

This bit about Response 3 tick­led me: “Show­ing off ones love in pub­lic is not a good sign for a healthy relation”.

And I really appre­ci­ated the well mean­ing intent of response 4. “It is not very safe doing any such activ­i­ties in our country.”

And despair not, there’s more entertainment!

On a more seri­ous note, I don’t think the Indian pub­lic is mature enough to han­dle PDA (aka, pub­lic dis­play of affec­tion) as quite appar­ent from some of the responses.

It’s quite a pity really. If we con­ducted some of our PDA in pub­lic as the word sug­gests, who knows, we might be a less frus­trated and less pop­u­lated nation! :)

    Response 4: If proper place is not cho­sen, you’ll see your­self in NDTV :)

    Response 3: I feel there are many ways to show one’s love in pub­lic other that kiss­ing. May be we can say “Show­ing love by kiss­ing in pub­lic place is not a good sign..Please take into con­sid­er­a­tion the plight of yet-to-be-married bach­e­lors in and around that place :)
    sigh

    Response 1: Remem­ber, Moth­ers some­times do beat their kids in pub­lic place!

    Ha ha ha…
    Why is it sooo nec­es­sary to be huggy feely in pub­lic? Is it because they are try­ing to prove some­thing to the rest of the watch­ing pub­lic? Even in Amer­ica it is only the students(HS or Col­lege) who are so open. Are you call­ing a peck on the cheek a kiss? Then sab chalega. Should we be vis­it­ing people’s houses and hug them and peck them? If we fol­low one should be fol­low all the Parisian rules? Finally I dont have take off my beau­ti­ful high heels inside homes.
    Sigh!! Deci­sions Deci­sions Deci­sions.
    Until then ta ta
    and peck peck on either side of the cheek, Parisian style ;-)

    I’ve seen some cou­ples go at it in pub­lic, to the point where it resem­bles some­thing out of a soft-core film. Or occai­sion­ally worse!
    It can get very uncom­fort­able to watch. That said, I’m not a prude, but I wish some cou­ples here in the states would mind their man­ners just a bit. Or be pre­pared for me squirt­ing them with a gar­den hose to break up the love-fest. ;)

    Just won­der­ing how many of the peo­ple who opposes PDA have ever fallen in love? To me, peo­ple who opposes PDA seems more envi­ous than moralistic.
