Holding hands in public

I hope this is the right forum, it's a sexual relationship but my question here isn't of a sexual nature...

Anyway, my girlfriend likes to hold hands all the time. I mean <i>all the time</i>. I'm usually fine with holding hands, it's nice, but I can't take a single step without her pouting or wanting to hold my hand. No matter where we go, if we're out, or just walking down the hallway in the house, she wants us to hold hands.

Sometimes I like it too, but normally I just find it totally unecessary and juvenile and I feel like we're children, walking around holding hands all the time.

What can I do about this? Most of the time I put up with it, relationships are about give and take of course, but the times when I feel it's juvenile, what can I do? When I try and talk to her about it she gets upset and thinks I don't want to be seen in public as a couple.

Thanks for any advise... and yes, I do realize this is totally trivial, but it's been driving me nuts for months
