Fondling in public

[loobywench]

Was in a long queue for checkout at a store today and was just looking around as you do. Couple across from me and one starts to fondle and squeeze the others breasts and then moves on to backside in full view of everyone. My mum was with me and was . AIBU for thinking why do some people feel the need to do this in public?

Sorry, just spotted this... Loobywench they were both female? I'll bet that pleased the men.

But they had kids with them too? Now that is 'WTF!' stuff to me.

DH and I spent 15 mins pulling cats bum faces at a couple in a bar recently. They were at the bar, standing with their backs to us and she had her hand down the back of his jeans. Innocuous you might think, hoh no, she was fingering his bum crack

His jeans were getting further and further down. These were not young whippersnappers either!

We could take no more, and downed our drinks and left, avoiding the complimentary bar snacks

Oh god Noel, urgh!! That's grim.

Yes Boomerwang they were both female! My DH was !

I was once on a tube train and a couple were full-on snogging. She stuck her tongue in his ear and then said something like "That woman's just given us a dirty look" to which he replied "It's probably because you've just put your tongue in my ear". Yes it was, you grim undignified fucking social graces-free zone.

Also, one time I was on a train with a couple opposite me and the bloke fingered the girl. They put a newspaper over the 'area' but it was clear what was going on and she was sighing and everything. Ffs.

There was a highly publicised case near to us a couple years ago when a couple were caught having sex in a public swimming pool, during an open swim session. Nice. :(

My favourite story like this is the couple who had sex on a full commuter train. Everyone ignored it until they had finished and lit up post-coital fags, at which point there was outrage that they were smoking, which is what they initially got reported to police for.

grim

People are so low rent.

Yuck, this is a pet hate of mine. I can't stand people pawing at each other in public. Showing affection is one thing, but what you describe is over the top imo.

I think it's grim tbh. Teenagers playing tonsil hockey outside the cinema is one thing, grown adults in a supermarket is way out of line. I don't mind cuddles, kisses and showing affection etc, but clearly sexual behaviour in full view of kids is not on.

A couple of years ago at Midnight Mass a couple were fondling themselves in the front pew - it was pretty unpleasant, I was also with my parents !

Hope that doesn't read as 'I was also fondling with my parents'

It did Ragwort, and I have to say, I was disCUSted with you.

Rag- were the couple fondling themselves or eachother? Not that it really matters, both are yuk at Midnight Mass, but I am a stickler for detail Nosey Mare

at Midnight Mass? !!!

in public you hold hands, maybe a quick kiss. Anything else is NOT for everyone else's eyes. So you are getting laid, good for you. I don't want to know about it.

regardless of genders.

I was at a wedding once where a couple of the guests were sitting in a pew fondling, hugging and kissing during the ceremony. The split up shortly afterwards!

I was on a plane back from holiday and all had to sit apart. I ended up next to a couple who really should have got a room! The squelching noises kept me awake, it was revolting.

Same happened to me at midnight mass this year, a couple busy fondling each other. I felt very sorry for their teen-aged children who were looking very red.

Squelching noises

I know, I felt quite ill.

Ugh this makes me want to wear surgical gloves in the supermarket - wtf is all this groping of cracks etc all about

I love threads like this, always some reall eye-openers. I never see any stuff like this going on anywhere, shagging/fighting/theiving, even when I do go to Asda. I must live the most sheltered RL life on MN.

Eldritch that's a Victoria Wood joke!!!

In mass????

Is it the new sign of peace?

Last night DP and I were mooching around a shopping centre, feeling quite giddy as we've just booked a holiday and getting over the fact he's been short-listed for redundancy....anyway, so I snuck up behind him and slapped him on the bum, then scuttled off giggling like a girl. He then shouted after me, "Don't run off, I'm not going to hit you!". Cue very bemused looks from concerned passers by.

I draw the line at arse fingering.
