PDA: some people love it, some people hate it. The ones who love it would probably argue that they are romantics who don't want to quell their burning passion. While the ones who hate it say, "Get a room!"
Some may also say that PDA has varying levels since it could be something innocuous, like holding hands in the park or a simple "I love you" message on social media. On the other hand, PDA can be gratuitous, like a hot and heavy make-out session at a party.
It also depends on the public setting and the culture. For example, bystanders may tolerate a couple kissing in a dark movie theater in the U.S., but not in a more conservative country, like Qatar. Or, if you move that same kissy behavior to a formal dinner or a place where kids are present, those same bystanders would probably go Karen on that couple.
