All day today, PDA is MORE than okay; it’s in fact demanded! So why am I asking for you to engage in PDA (public display of affection)?

There are events going on across the country to promote the event and bring awareness such as Eucerin’s PDA Day event today in NYC from 8am-11am in Herald Square, and at The Grove in LA from 5:30-8:30pm (see here to find the city closest to you). Join in the Million Moments of Touch Movement; it’s cool to grab your significant other, and plant a big smooch on them, hold hands, hug, walk arm and arm – any way you feel most comfortable displaying affection out in the open.
