Vienna wants to ban/stop kissing in public/trains..

[quote]Being overly amorous can be just as inconsiderate, according to the company Wiener Linien, which operates public transport in the Austrian capital Vienna. A public information film produced by the firm shows examples of passengers behaving less than thoughtfully - someone picking their nose, an unattended dog drooling and a couple, in the words of Wiener Linien spokeswoman Anna Maria Reich, "kissing untamed". Reich told the BBC that, contrary to some reports, kissing was neither banned on the network nor subject to fines. But she added that the campaign was about asking customers to "behave considerately". "A kiss on the cheek is fine in public but a kiss on the lips, especially with the tongue, is not a correct behaviour because it is such an intimate act," says William Hanson, an etiquette and protocol consultant. "Kissing in public almost devalues this sign of affection because it is supposed to be intimate," he says.[/quote] So in the UK you have schools asking students not to touch each other in any form (God knows how they play rugby) and now you have Austria wanting to stop people kissing in public. These people really have no lives.

  • Why not? It's basically spitting in one another's mouths.

  • There's kissing in public and then there is being an asshole in public. Those people who can't wait until they're home to have their intense make out session are assholes. Nobody wants to see that. And if they do, they'll find a video of it on the internet.

        • It really is inconsiderate, actually. Especially if the people kissing are fat or gross.

            Wow lol, thank God for 'Murica :) Though it depends on the smooching, if it's like some sort of ten minute slurping session then I would think that inconsiderate, or think them drunk, but it wouldn't bother me overmuch (no, I'm not a voyeur)
