When I saw the title of this thread I got scared, because the Key reason why I love eating at the 1900 Park Fair for Dinner is because I get to have a character meal with Suzy and Perla and they are my favorite characters that come to DisneyWorld and it's hard to find them at the parks.
Anyways as for the Crystal Palace being a character meal for females and not males unless the males are little boys well I can see what you are saying, but I am a 29 year old male who loves Piglet and all the other Pooh characters. I have that Winnie the Pooh dvd that I watch all the time. When I adopted my little black female kitten I played a Winnie the Pooh tape that I had since I was 4 years old. This tape has a song that goes " I'm just a little black rain cloud " It's an audio tape drama so it's a little different than the way the song goes on the cartoon " Winnie the Pooh and the Honey Tree " Since Olive was a black kitten I was like she is my little black rain cloud
Also when I was at the Crystal Palace I took my Piglet plush toy with me because I wanted to show it to Piglet ( I was hoping he would be there ) > I left my table to go to the bathroom and when I started walking back to my table I noticed that Piglet was playing with my little plush toy

I will be eating at Crystal Palace again, not sure when but it was fun to eat there. Also this seems to be one character meal that does not book up very fast so you don't have to plan in advance. Okay I just had to say that I really love Piglet and all those pooh characters
Anyways I agree with the people who said that Disney should do stuff more for the boys than the girls. I guess I am lucky since I happen to be an adult male who loves Piglet and who loves disney Princesses, and who loves the fairies from Disney films ect. > I must say I would love to see Merrywhether from Sleeping Beauty, Merrywhether is awesome

He he there are some many things about me that make me one of a kind

Many of the disney cast members remember me when I go back to DisneyWorld. I have a way of standing out so many of the cast members are able to remember me
