Public show of affection is Right or Wrong?

A few days ago I went through one question in an open forum about the value of the show of affection in public. The submitter was asking about the public show of affection by the US President Barack Obama to the first lady Michelle Obama. The big question is that is it okay to show your affection in public?

Mr and Mrs. Obama

It is true that people are always eager to watch every step of the celebrities. I think that it is not good to show so much affection in public. Although I am a big fan of the first couple of US and I like them very much, but I will insist on my view that showing so much affection in public is not good.

I believe that President Mr. Obama has very high respect for his wife and I do believe that every person should have high respect for his wife. Mr. Obama believes that she is the motivating power which brought him to the top most position of the world, while she helped him to recover from bad times of his life too. Thus, showing so much affection even in public meetings and during speeches is one sort of thanks giving to his life partner.

During the campaign time we saw the affection of the Obama couple in public and even on the date of inauguration too we watched the same. I don’t think there is any thing wrong behind this. Women are feeling a bit jealous about Mrs. Obama and they are hoping that their hubbies too can get some tips from Mr. President. Mr. President sets a good example for other husbands to respect and adore their spouses.

But the question is asked just because showing love or affection is a very private and personal thing and it should need not to show in public. There are many people out there who will criticize this on the name of culture, on the name of ethics and any thing. They can cry for anything.

It is true that Obama is the most popular personality these days and his every movement is watched by almost the entire world. It is also true that with the show of affection he is giving the proper respect to the lady of his life. I would rather like to know the views of the readers of I News India on this topic. Comments and views are awaiting from our readers.

    It’s refreshing to see. With all the world-hate directed at the U.S. lately it’s a good showing of humanity. Its speaks volumes of the compassion that this “President of Hope” has. I can only wish the best for this new administration.

  5. Truly said, I liked Mr. President just because his affection for the lady of his life, but yes it is also true that when you will become popular then every body will look for each and every step of yours. Some of them will like you and a few will not. Personally I too will not like the public show of affection of my hubby but there is nothing to cry for this. Nice article though.

  6. If it was a couple who’s aint married and are quoating would have been ok! understood! but obhama seems to show off…its wrong…

  7. I have not idea what Nancy just said. Anybody?

  8. It is not wrong at all to show public affection in a powerful position like the president’s. It would be if it was excessive and very up front. Their affection for one another is not obnoxious in any sort of a way, yet they are not trying to be completely private about it. It is nice to see glimpses of true love within the political sphere where we would usually only see bashing of other candidates, money issues, economy, and so forth.
