Singing along the actors at a musical. Ugh. I did not pay to listen to you sing. I paid to listen to the actors on stage.

I'm weary with right-angles, abbreviated daylight,
Waiting for a winter to be done.
Why do I still see you in every mirrored window,
In all that I could never overcome?
If a couple or pairs in their romantic moods join their lips in public places and when school children pass by.
Sex, romantic behaviors are private affairs and now in the name fashion of modernity and in the name of liberty people are stripping themselves in some public places. Even small kids see the erotic scenes and I do not understand what those little ones will learn from such social manners.
Don't get me wrong, I'm not in favour of PDA at all. But your stance is maybe a little extreme. I have seen many people kiss in public, or even a hand placed on some chest, during my childhood. That has not ruined me physically, mentally or emotionally. It's just that I don't like it, and I'd prefer if people did those things in the privacy of their own homes but it's inevitable. And not all that bad either. We don't want next generations to turn into the extreme prudes that other eras have brought forth, a bit of PDA now and again is not more than normal.
So we beat on, boats against the current, borne back ceaselessly into the past - The Great Gatsby
Give every man thine ear, but few thy voice - Polonius (Hamlet)
Considering that until very recently most of western society has lived in single room dwellings packed with people I'm sure children have been encountering more than a little PDA for centuries. If children seeing people kiss is traumatic are there any untraumatized children?
