Public displays of affection

20 years ago
Hello all,

I am an American working in Iraq and planning to visit Dubai soon, and I have a question, I have read that it is considered lewd behavior to kiss in public and one can even be arrested for this. I was wondering holding hands or hugging in public also considered lewd behavior?
