I have no doubt that one group of people will get more attention in the media than another...lets face it, it's about what will grab peoples attention and sell.
I'm of the mind set that there is a time and a place for everything. I sorta live by the...if I wouldn't do it in front of my parents or kids (whether my partner's kids/my foster kids when I have one placed with me etc)..then I don't do it in public places where other peoples parents or kids are.
Couples should be able to show affection to one another, it's actually quite healthy for a relationship. It also teaches our children what a healthy relationship looks like....of course once again...there is a time and a place for certain things.
For me it's about mutual respect.

I couldn't get through to this either by clicking on the link or by copying and pasting. I would be very interested in reading this as well as the several others you found. I spent a good deal of time yesterday trying to find something so any help would be greatly appreciated.
A big part of what bothered me about this incident was the apparent unfairness. That and the fact that every time I tried to find something about heterosexual public displays of affection or heterosexual overly sexual behavior, I was directed to something with the tag homosexual in it. Pissed me off a tad.
