Default Leisha Hailey was kicked off plane for lesbian kiss

I'm not big on PDAs. Never have been.

But I don't think everyone has to be like me.

Yet there is a line that shouldn't be crossed.

However, the problem is the line is different for everyone.

And it is in a different place depending on whether you are gay or straight.

Since the airline claimed the issue was one of degree I decided to give them the benefit of the doubt. If the degree of PDA was the problem for this airline or really for any airline, then surely heterosexual couples have had their fair share or at least SOME share of incidents where they stepped over the line. So I googled heterosexual couples tossed off planes for excessive kissing and got more stories about gay couples. I tried a different approach and googled has a heterosexual couple been admonished for overly sexual behavior and didn't put any more information just to see what issues hetero couples have surrounding PDA. But I just got more stuff about homosexuals.

It's hard to accept the airlines claim that it wasn't about gender.

What do people think about public displays of affection and the different standards for gays and straights?
