	Someplace Somewhere - Public displays of homosexual behaivor in ur town? (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-18)
		You fear even the prospect of homosexual behavior in a public place (not to mention everywhere else, presumably), though it otherwise affects you in no direct way, it will not harm your or your children (apart from your own perceptions of “normal” and “moral” behavior), and has no direct impact on your life whatsoever.

	Public affection in gay life
		For many of us, giving and receiving affection is one of the best parts of having an intimate relationship, and this may range anywhere from a hand on your partner's knee to a big, juicy kiss.
		Some people are truly sweet when they kiss and touch in public, whether they are holding hands, hugging or sitting with their arms around one another.
