The fashion police are going to be disapointed if they think there won't be some passngers in the MDR wearing shorts. The real question is will Celebrity make it official that shorts are allowed. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No. She said it made her uncomfortable. Do you actually believe it's wrong for her to feel that way? Animal sacrifices, bull fighting, woman subjugation, child brides, etc. etc. are parts of different cultures. These things make me uncomfortable. I make no apologies for feeling uncomfortable about things like these. This has nothing to do with placing one culture above another. I accept that cultural norms differ widely. I have no idea why you responded by throwing up a strawman argument about her saying their culture was inferior. She never said that. I'm probably overreacting here, but it bothers me when someone responds as you did. Edited January 13, 2023 by mnocket 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does your DH have to wear a blindfold when you take him to the beach? 14 hours ago, Charles4515 said: Do you think she lets him of to the beach or the pool? I think you're being a bit unfair here. I'm sure you wouldn't say that to a Muslim who is uncomfortable with certain attire. Why do you mock @Keys Kathyfor feeling uncomfortable? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She didn’t say her husband was uncomfortable. As far as Muslims if they go to the beach in the Caribbean or the pool on a ship they are going to see skimpy clothes. I have no idea if that would make Muslims uncomfortable. Certainly you are not saying that there should be a rule in western countries that skimpy clothing should not be allowed since Muslims might be uncomfortable? Same in the MDR. Some may be uncomfortable with certain dress but that does not mean there is or should be a rule. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't see how this matters or why you distinguish between this case and a Muslim woman being uncomfortable in the same circumstance. That said, I see no value in arguing the point.

At a nude beach, you would expect nudity. At a regular beach in the US, you would expect some type of coverage. How would you feel if a naked person walked into chuch? Someplaces it belongs, someplaces it doesn't. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare NMTraveller Posted January 14, 2023 Author #136 Share Posted January 14, 2023 Well I think that I will ask this question closer to my sailing to someone that is onboard to see how people are dressing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare LMaxwell Posted January 14, 2023 #137 Share Posted January 14, 2023 You can't see anyones legs under the table. In fact, wherever you are sitting, I doubt you see more than 1% of the total guests onboard walk past you given the floor/restaurant, time, location etc. You might catch a glimpse of someone else as they walk by to their table and then never notice them again. I can't tell if a lady is wearing Daisy Dukes or Capris, or Full Length pants if they are sat down in a chair. And it doesn't matter. All these women who "don't want to look at hairy legs"....what on Earth are you doing to see this? You would literally have to be crawling around on hands and knees going underneath table cloths to see any of this. Wild claims of things that never happen and things you don't see. But everyone *needs* to be offended these days at the choices of others. So does Celebrity have a dress code? I mean I guess they have some dress suggestions to give people an idea. I wouldn't call it a "code" because participation is pretty much optional and style can be a wide range. But they have lots of marketing information on their website that seasoned cruisers know is inaccurate once onboard. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The pretend dress code police need to find another "problem" to spend precious vacation time worrying about, just IMVHO, of course. Yes yes I know, sign sign everywhere a sign , plenty of pics of the signs here on CC. Just stop freaking worrying about what anyone else is wearing, you'll have a far better time on board, all the stress oh my. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I respectfully ask that you both kindly be quiet about your weather. 🙂 I am in the south as well, but it is the south of New England and it is 27 degrees and been raining for 3 days, I'm trying to remember what sunshine looks like! OK, you can go back to resuming your enjoyment of the real south's weather.. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
