Exactly. No one should be abused for having a relationship but at the same time someone saying they don't want to see you grind on your partner in public isn't hating your relationship, it's hating that you're grinding on someone in public. Like most people I know that would hate that would hate it no matter who is doing it and calling it homophobic won't make it so.

The complete lack of filter is the problem, not the actions themselves. It's like no one ever taught them there's stuff you don't need to share with people. That as you say they need to share it and have everyone praise it.

Yeah I've had way more problems with straight people than gay people with the whole "TMI" public display of affection shit over the years.

I'm happy for you mate. I'm glad you found your soulmate. You don't need to deep throat tongue kiss in public at every fucking get together. Get a room, you aren't 14. You have money for it.

Seriously, the amount of people that get offended when you tell them to tone it down is unreal. We know you're a couple we don't need a demonstration. It's just obnoxious and slightly baffling how they act like you hate the relationship just because you don't want to see someone groped in front of you. Not sure if you're wrong about the 14 though a lot of people who act like that do seem to be stuck mentally a bit as teens.

They're mentally children.

I think humans in general are a bit hardwired to respond negatively towards sexual displays. Sort of. I think it's an evolutionary response towards competition. Call it jealously or whatever, it doesn't really matter.

I'll give the hardline prudes shit for hating on even the ideal of sexual relationships. Nothing wrong with those. But there really is no reason to give a demonstration. Ever.

Some people just seem so offended or perhaps they want that negative attention for some reason. I don't know. It's like "You are a whatever-phobe for giving us shit for our public make out session".

Dude gay or straight or whatever I'm going to give you shit for the public make out session. Get a damn room. This isn't like I find you in the janitors closet. I'll ignore that since you are at least trying to be private.

So much of this shit is literally "other people need to accept me"

Well they don't, so what? You tell them nothing and they don't know you from Adam do they?
