I'll have your baby, but don't touch my hand

This is a message that I've been seeing more and more in our society. The fact that people will have a one night stand with almost anyone, but won't even consider having a relationship with them. I've long been a believer of the idea that the most intimate thing you can do with someone is to sleep with them, but as of late I have began to wonder if this is really true. I have begun to realise that a lot of us would rather have a night of wild passion, while we withhold the intimacy of a simple finger lock. Why does it seem that todays society is the opposite of society 30-40 years ago? What I mean is that sex has become such a callous thing that we are able to do it without second thought, but the idea of holding hands and showing affection in public with that same person is outrageous. Could it be that love is shown more through public affection than by hidden desire? I think it is. If someone loves you he/she shouldn't be afraid to express that love in public. For surely you are nothing to be ashamed of, right? And of course no one would have a one night stand with someone they didn't really love... Love is a very strange thing indeed.
