Why is it that I find men kissing each other a bit iffy?
Ive had several gay (male) friends in the past, I'm not homophobic in the least and would defend anyones rights to love who they want, but I still find that the sight of 2 men snogging in public a bit disturbing. Recently saw 2 girls having a snog in the park and didn't bother me a bit.
Am I alone in this?

I suspect that most people feel 'out of their comfort zone' with situations which they can't personally relate easily to. For example, someone who's been brought up in a wealthy, upper-middle-class home might not be prejudiced in any way against those who've had fewer advantages in life but still feel 'on edge' when surrounded solely by the type of people...

Are you male or female?
I shouldn't worry about it too much. You're entitled to find things iffy -- as long as you don't start complaining out loud, although I don't think you do that.
Russian men have always greeted one another with two great smackers on either cheek, but then I'm not Russian.

Mexican, I'm male.
Why? What difference does that make?
I think this is a gender-based matter. I have known hetero women who disliked lesbians but didn't mind gays. Conversely, hetero male friends didn't mind lesbians but disliked gays.
I agree. I find men kissing intimately a turn off. And I have a couple of male gay friends.
Even watching Corrie and seeing Todd kissing Billy has me puking.
Oh I hope you are, Nailit....but sadly I doubt it...... :-(

I don't mind anyone kissing just as long as they don't slobber....x
When out and about we see things we like and things we aren't keen on , both times we just carry on our way.

Well I do.

hope I am what gness??

Hope I am some one with an opinion?
I simply stated that I find 2 men kissing in public disturbing.
You asked

//Am I alone in this?//


I too doubt it, but each to their own.

lets get something right, I wouldn't even want it to get out lawed. I'm just asking a question (I was under the impression that this was a question and answer site)
-- answer removed --
It is and we have.
You said you find men kissing iffy and asked if you are alone in this........
I hope you are alone...is my answer to your question, Nailit.....

And as I said....I doubt you are alone but would be nice if you were.........that's all.....x
I suspect that most people feel 'out of their comfort zone' with situations which they can't personally relate easily to. For example, someone who's been brought up in a wealthy, upper-middle-class home might not be prejudiced in any way against those who've had fewer advantages in life but still feel 'on edge' when surrounded solely by the type of people who feature in 'The Only Way Is Essex'.

Equally, a celebrity from TOWIE who doesn't resent the 'upper classes' might still feel 'edgy' when solely in the company of people with a public school background.

Similarly, a man who isn't sexually attracted to other men might feel 'out of his comfort zone' when he witnesses overt displays of such attractions, even though he isn't in any way homophobic.
I don't go far so I don't encounter anyone kissing BUT what really gets on my nerves is when separated parents 'display' their new partners on the school run.
They sound rather inadequate Sherr, sad.
Neither am I homophobic, but find same sex kissing uncomfortable. I put that down to not really ever seeing that happen on occasion not often.

I suspect that Chris has put it most succinctly.
Gness, and I suspect that I'm not alone in this either.
Not seeing same sex kissing very often, only occasionally.
