Appropriate dress?

[TeresaWen]

I think we can all agree that everyone has their own way of doing things.. as crazy as it may seem to some of you that someone would take time out of their day to go back and change to eat in a theme park there is honestly nothing wrong with that. If that is something that makes them happy and comfortable I say go for it. At the same time, if someone chooses not to do so there's nothing wrong with that either. I absolutely did not post this thread with the intention of starting a debate about classism..

I don't think I would return to my hotel just to change. The way we vacation usually puts us at our resort around 5 or 6 in the evening. Usually it's because we are chilling at the pool. We enjoy showering and relaxing on the balcony over wine before we head back out.

Dressing up is something we enjoy. Now. When we both worked on Wall Street you could not get my husband to wear a collared shirt on vacation!!

It's good that you can find 2 hours out of your day to leave a park, change and return. Not counting the time it takes to freshen up.

Who said anything about leaving the park? I said knowing that I was going to a nicer restaurant that I would wear nicer clothes. I never said anything about leaving the park.

Don't read into answers more than is said.

You believe telling someone not to worry about random strangers judging her clothes is "nasty?" That's a fascinating worldview, but not one I can give any sort of credit.

No, telling someone "not to worry about what others think" would be fine. Describing an interest in dressing nicely for a nice restaurant as " anunhealthy interest in other people's business" is nasty,

The interesting worldview is that you don't see that as being nasty.

I think people who want to wear fancy clothes should go right ahead. I think those who want to comply with the Disney dress code without going all out should also go right ahead. If that's "nasty" in your book, it may be your book that holds the problem.

Are nice shorts and an Aloha shirt "fancy clothes"? Do they qualify as "going all out"?

The problem seems to be making mountains out of molehills.

Nasty would be the entire tenor of your posts that seem deliberately provocative.

Not a thing nasty about her posts. I think you may have misinterpreted everything you quoted of hers. Or I did. I did not interpret her post as a condemnation in any way of those who choose to dress up (or down).

There was nothing nasty in any of the posts you quoted - or in anything she said, actually.

It is a matter of opinion.

When someone says, "I try to dress nicer in nice places and think tank tops are inappropriate dress" and then some calls that opinion "an unhealthy interest", I find that completely uncalled for and nasty because it was completely uncalled for.

By that logic, your statement was "uncalled for and nasty" to those that wear tank tops. Again...

If you do not understand the difference between saying something is inappropriate and calling it unhealthy there is no point to continue.

If you don't understand the colloquial meaning of "unhealthy interest," there really is no point in continuing.
