NoToThePjs Posted September 28, 2023 Report Share Posted September 28, 2023 Since when have pyjamas been acceptable attire in the dining room and theatre. Like I get we’re getting casual but let’s put sweat pants on at least Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrimsonCruiser Posted September 28, 2023 Report Share Posted September 28, 2023 Now I'm wondering when...and where...and are we considering slip dresses (which are 100% styled after nightgowns) as pajamas....

Montemy2419 Posted September 28, 2023 Report Share Posted September 28, 2023 When I first started seeing adult women walk around in fuzzy slippers I thought well their feet must hurt from the high heels the night before. Nope, it has continued to slide down and I'm surprised that I haven't seen bathing suits in MDR because they allow shorts and ball caps to be worn. People in general used to look like they took a little effort for the day instead of cruising in pj's and fuzzy slippers.

whitsmom Posted September 28, 2023 Report Share Posted September 28, 2023 It really doesn't bother me with what everyone wears (such as PJ pants, shorts or similar) in the dining room, shows and such places. Once they set down, you don't really see that anyway. It doesn't change how much a enjoy my meal or the show.

Atlantix2000 Posted September 28, 2023 Report Share Posted September 28, 2023 I wouldn't wear denim (shorts or pants) to bed because they don't slide around properly on sheets when turning. But everything else qualifies as pajamas in my book. Best not to criticize others choice of clothing.

She came back in the house in less than a minute and said “I guess I should change out of my pajamas”.

Ray Posted September 28, 2023 Report Share Posted September 28, 2023 Doesn't say if it was male or female PJ's My concern is that it was an elderly male wearing those pj's from years back! The ones that had that had the overlapping flap in the front!

Nikkoo2 Posted September 28, 2023 Report Share Posted September 28, 2023 I’ve got to say that since my last cruise, just pre covid, the level of attire has plummeted. I dress smart for evenings, super smart for formal night. This cruise and my last saw pj’s on formal night. Won’t be long and the tuxedo onesie above will be the norm. I think it’s sad people have so little self respect, let alone respect for others. Maybe it’s because I’m English… HeWhoWaits, Montemy2419, GB2500 and 2 others 2 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xaa Posted September 28, 2023 Report Share Posted September 28, 2023 I'm not sure everyone measures their self respect based on their clothing choice @Nikkoo2 Some measure their respect for others by how they treat them vs how they display to them. In the end, the cruise line dictates dress policy and makes the enforcement choice. RafaellaCG, PeloAl, HeWhoWaits and 1 other 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greg R Posted September 28, 2023 Report Share Posted September 28, 2023 Well I am certainly guilty of wearing what I guess you would call sweat pants to the Windjammer, they are nice Adidas brand tracksuit type. I know for certain I have worn them there for breakfast as my normal routine would be up at 6:30 for a walk on the track and then to breakfast. I've been on some cooler cruises so I might have worn them to lunch also. I do draw the line at Dinner though. I usually am wearing a long sleeve button down maybe a tie and coat. Times have changed though as there was a time that nobody would have worn a hat at the dinner table, and on a ship everyone would dress up. I live in Florida and even nice restaurants you will see people in shorts. I guess that is because of the 95 degrees and 80% humidity. I guess at 55 I am officially old and I just don't think its appropriate to come to dinner dressed that way. I won't let it bother me though and I will enjoy my meals. I did find one person odd on a cruise, he wore a baseball style hat every night to dinner, even when he was wearing a suit. I was just more intrigued than anything else, then realized it was because he was going bald. I guess he didn't want people to notice.

Like I get we’re getting casual but let’s put sweat pants on at least Agree. Some folks don't dress appropriately. But the other comments show tolerance is important. You can tolerate others silently without approving the behavior. We all need to get along. But I'd bet that even those who don't judge notice what others are doing.

Vancity Cruiser Posted September 28, 2023 Report Share Posted September 28, 2023 I think we are just in a different era of time. 50-60 years ago people got dressed up to go anywhere. Men wore suits outside of the home most of the time. 25 years ago most workplaces still had very strict dress codes. Now, a lot of successful entrepreneurs and/or CEO's under 40 wear only hoodies. Things change and that's just the way it is. I still dress up somewhat but not to stuffy. I care more about someone's attitude than what they are wearing. I'd rather be cruising with kind hearted, fun loving onsie pajama wearing folks than a bunch of suits treating staff and fellow cruisers like crap.

Ampurp85 Posted September 29, 2023 Report Share Posted September 29, 2023 I agree that standards have changed. I personally won't police what someone wears unless nudity is involved. I do inwardly judge people for not having what I consider decency. We were interviewing for a receptionist position, and I cannot tell you how many people came in crop tops, shorts, leggings and rip jeans. Two of the young people tried to argue with me about it saying they "aren't their clothes" and such things didn't matter. One was wearing a t-shirt that said, "eat the rich" and the other was wearing shorts that showed actual cheeks.

This one lady who was too ample for the strip of fabric that was her top. She kept pulling it up and eventually it gave up and I was so embarrassed for her .

JFCruise Posted September 29, 2023 Report Share Posted September 29, 2023 @Ampurp85 the thing is, I don't think it was meant to be see-through, just a cheap white tshirt that was maybe worn a few too many times.

Breasts and nipples have never ever been sexual organs! In fact in time gone by it was normal for woman to be topless and still is in some countries! It's western mankind who has sexualiaed the female breast over time and changed it from a part of the body used to feed their children into a fantasy! Topless guy at pool is ok but not a woman! Why? Families take their children to parks or zoos and stop and watch excitedly while cows, sheep or any other animals feed their young yet same family may complain if a woman walked past revealling to much or if woman was feeding her newborn at table next to them as its seen as unacceptable! #FREETHENIPPLE Villageidiot and Sharla 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xaa Posted September 29, 2023 Report Share Posted September 29, 2023 I understand the society I live in, but I'm with @Ray on this. A woman's body, simply by existing, is not inappropriate.
