Hide hover on click away touchscreen tablet/mobile device

I have the following menu which works perfectly on desktop. When hover on item, secondary menu appears.

On tablet/mobile device this is a click/touch

I want the menu hover effect (touch on tablet) to disappear when clicked away from on a tablet/mobile device.

E.g. ipad, when click on My Lists, secondary menu shows, but need it to disappear when clicked away from menu

Is this possible?

CSS:

* {outline:none; border:none; margin:0; padding:0; font:14px arial,sans-serif;}
body {background: url(images/bg.gif) repeat;}
#top {background: url(images/top_tile.png) repeat-x; height:140px; width:100%;}
.wrap {width:980px; margin:0 auto;}
#top1 {height:60px;}
.logo {padding-top:10px;}
#menu {height:48px;}
/*NAV*/
#nav{
    list-style:none;
    font-weight:bold;
    /* Clear floats */
    float:left;
    width:100%;
}
#nav li{
    float:left;
    margin-right:10px;
    position:relative;
}
#nav a{
    display:block;
    padding:20px 25px 7px 15px;
    color:#333;
    height:25px;
    text-decoration:none;
}
#nav a:hover{
    color:#fff;
    background:#ff9900;
    text-decoration:none;
}

/*--- DROPDOWN ---*/
#nav ul{
    background:#fff; 
    list-style:none;
    position:absolute;
    left:-9999px; 
    min-width:200px;
    border-radius:0px 0px 3px 3px;
    border:1px solid #ccc;
}
#nav ul li{
    padding-top:1px; 
    float:none;
    background:#fff;
    }
#nav ul a{
    white-space:nowrap; 
    font-size:13px;
    color:#666;
    padding: 10px 0px 5px 15px;
}
#nav li:hover ul{ 
    left:0; 

}
#nav li:hover a{

$(document).click(function() {
alert("me");
});

$(".myDiv").click(function(e) {
e.stopPropagation(); // This is the preferred method.
return false;        // This should not be used unless you do not want
                     // any click events registering inside the div
});

---As mentioned here. jQuery hide element when clicked anywhere on the page
