Nah, unbiased kiddin’. Your letter is totally inoffensive. Nothing wrong with being meddlesome. So “howzit” right back atcha.

Having never been to Promontory Town myself (any sugar daddies out there want to take me?), I can’t speak for what the circumstances is like for gays, but I’ll tell you the deal here in the US.

There are a lot of factors that go into hand-holding. Let’s take the plunge it down, UCT. Say you have a gay male couple in front of you, coming to the decision whether they’re going to hold hands or not.

First, the most central factor in this decision is that some people are hand-holders, some aren’t. From a quite unscientific survey, it would seem women tend to be more interested in holding hands on normally, which might account for all those lesbians superglued at the wrist. What’s more, gay or straight, a lot of men have issues with being difficult to another person in public (an issue that women don’t seem quite as burdened with).

So let’s say both guys are geared towards convenient-holding. But then you have to consider: where are they in their relationship? Maybe they’re still new to each other. Maybe one is shyer than the other. On the whole it takes a little while to build up to public displays of affection, no weight how benign.
