It totally depends on who/where/what. I mean, hand-holding is totally cool. Lap-sitting makes me uncomfortable with certain people, but not with others. A hug and a peck while standing in line at a grocery store is fine. "Making out" in public is for teenagers, though. After that it's pretty tacky. But, whatever.
My two friends, though, are so anti-PDA that one is considering omitting the kiss at her wedding ceremony and the other is encouraging her to drop it as well. I think that's a little bananas. If you're that uncomfortable with physical affection in others, that could signal something weird about you. Maybe.
Then we talked about another sorta friend of ours who always sits on her boyfriend's lap and one of them said, "That's why we'll never be close."

The grocery store is a bit much.

Jon Lovitz, Tommy Flanagan, SNL, pathological liar, Morgan Fairchild.
These days it's all about Axe. Last year a kid sprayed some Axe Body Spray in the library and I suffered for days.

yes, I believe I did.
I am actually more of the bathing sort of guy, so you know, I don't require smelly stuff to mist about my body...
As to the PDA: Within reason is fine, there are limits, a handshake is the preferred mechanism of PDA if you have known the other party for a considerable amount of time... if you are just some over sexed teenie bopper then no, go sodomize one another in some dark seedy alley way where there is a high chance you will be molested in some other fashion by some other seedy character. if you are an adult then you have no business being all touchy feely with anyone- grow up.


But they weren't going at it like the kids at the grocery store the other day. That was almost embarrassing!
What did they do/say when you walked in?


I'm curious, because I can't think f a single guy willing to say anything remotely sexist like that at work. Either you really caught him off guard or... I don't even know but you should have jumped in his shit to see what his reaction was. Your friend might have ambushed him, and he was still dazed. It happens and not just in lame as porn mag either.
He probably felt like a fool for being caught AND calling you honey. Calling you honey was probably a misguided impulse to butter you up so you don't rat on him.

Yeah come to think of it no one calls me anything like "honey" at work. I don't have the most PC work environment either. There are all kinds of really inappropriate things said.
Sarah:"probably a misguided impulse to butter you up"
I'm in awe of you right now. That's exactly what it was but I don't think I could have put it so concisely.
