Why did you wear THAT???

Wouldn't let my daughter dress like that in the parks, but honestly, it's not all that bad. I just don't like men looking at my little girl, is all.
 
It's wrong. I'm surprised that so many don't see any problem with it.

Would you think it would be okay for a guy go without a shirt? That's about what he would wear to the water park?
 
I don't like it.......... I think she's fine for the beach or waterpark, etc... but NOT at Disney. Just my opinion, I don't think it's appropriate, but that's me. I've got as my sister calls it, a "rockin" body (for an old lady with 2 DS's in college) but, I'd never wear that to Disney. I have more self respect than that......... but hey, that's just me!!!

I have seen a women at US/IOA with her baby in a stroller, wearing literally a bikini top, and skirt (with NO undergarments)...... so short it's sickening. I saw her bend over to give the baby something and all of her "assets" were in FULL view of everyone, YES, even the little kids. That is gross, and offensive to me, and a lot of others. This women clearly has NO self respect, no respect for her children or her husband ( if that WAS her husband with her)!! AND, it's not like you can help but see it........... this woman was doing it on purpose, she bent over I know 20 times, and for no reason, the kid wasn't crying or in need of his mother to warrant her showing her undressed butt to everyone!!!! There was an old man in a wheelchair right across from her, and I saw him before I saw her, which made me look at her in the first place, but I thought he was having a heart attack or something......... the look on his face was "interesting" to say the least, then once I realized what he was "looking" at, I felt sick to my stomach!!!!!

I think the worst thing I ever saw was at Busch Gardens in Tampa, a girl, probably 13 or 14, she still had a "baby fat" belly, wearing a t-shirt, tied around the front, you know like the bottom was pulled up between the breast and tied, making a "makeshift" bikini top, and a pair of shorts that were so short and tight I don't know how she got them on......... but that's not the bad part.......... on the butt of the shorts it had the word, P***Y written.
Even my two sons who were teenagers got disgusted at that........... I mean what kind of mother would allow that....................... OH, yeah, her mother had on a jean skirt and bikini top!!!!!!!!!!!!! All I have to say is that the trash should go out on garbage day only!!!!!!

Go ahead, flame away, but nothing you say will change my mind......... that kind of "attire" and behavior is inappropriate and offensive!!!!!!!!!!!
 

Unless they are harming me or my family I could care less what people wear to the parks. It is none of my business and I just worry about what me and my 5 year old wear and if it comfortable for us to get through the day. I doubt she will be scarred by catching a glimpse of someone in a bikini top.

How is it 'wrong'?
If you mean that is against Disney policy to wear such (little) clothing in the parks, and that is where she is wrong then I understand, but otherwise how is it wrong? :confused3

No flames - I'm genuinely interested.

Other than it being against Disney policy, I don't see anything wrong with it. If she was a young or pre-teen then it would make me a little uneasy, but as she seems to be of a young adult age I personally don't have a problem with it.

I wouldn't be impressed with the US/IOA woman that wendypooh described though. I wouldn't be offended, just unimpressed.

It's one thing to wear the things you mentioned seeing, the woman with no underwear flashing, and a little girl with the word p***y on her shorts (and if I saw that by the way, I would be disgusted by her parents more than her). Wearing a reasonable skirt and a bikini top that is an appropriate size (ie. not too small so her breasts are actually showing) in no way means that she lacks self respect. Being that it's in Florida I would venture to guess it was really hot that day, and perhaps she got wet on a ride and took her shirt off to try out. Either way, what she's wearing certainly does not mean she is lacking in self respect. Who are YOU to judge who has respect for themself? You are free to your opinion, but if you find something like that totally offensive and innapropriate perhaps you should start learning how to spend more time in your house because almost anywhere you go I'm sure someone will be wearing something that will offend you.
 
How is it any different from back in 1972 when this cover was on LIFE Magazine?
cv072872.jpg


Let's see:

1972 - bikini top
2005 - bikini top

1972 - denim bottoms
2005 - denim bottoms

It looks perfectly acceptable to me, not to mention, even if it goes against Disney guidelines, it also states that Disney reserves the right to exclude, in this case they didn't exclude.

When I'm at Disney, the only thing I'm gonna worry about is how long the wait is for a ride, I'm gonna worry about keeping an eye on my kids, I'm going to worry about making it to my ADRs on time. Most important... I'm going to worry that I don't have enough time to do everything I want to do while I'm there.

What people wear, what people eat, what people drink, whether they bring back their refillable mug, whether they're pool hopping for the day, whether they don't give me a seat on the bus, whether they have 5 people in a value resort room... that's not MY concern!
 
while she looks like she should be at the beach or water park.....

I'm at WDW now.....you should see the way some people are dressed/not dressed there today!!! yeah, it's hot and humid here, but some obvious don't care how they look, so why should we??? :rotfl2:

FIRST of all - IF you read my post you'd see that I said the woman in the photo was -
I think she's fine for the beach or waterpark, etc... but NOT at Disney
AND I said that
I have more self respect than that......... but hey, that's just me!!!
YOU clearly didn't read my post accurately. You are right, maybe she was just "drying out" after getting off a water ride!! However, I grew up in Florida, and now live in Louisiana, so I know about
Being that it's in Florida I would venture to guess it was really hot
being HOT!!! That is NO excuse to go out in public, to a "family" place and dress that way!
YOU are also right, I can state MY opinion about it. I could care less what you think. In MY post the people I was talking about as lacking self respect, were the one's described, or the one's who fit the description of what I described.
Frankly ~ For you to suggest that I -
you should start learning how to spend more time in your house because almost anywhere you go I'm sure someone will be wearing something that will offend you
is ridiculously absurd!! So I should stay in my house so I don't have to "see" offensive things???? I would think that anyone, YES, including YOU who has any RESPECT for decency would agree with my point, even if you don't agree with where the lines are drawn!!

WHO are YOU to tell me to stay in my house, and furthermore, Who are YOU to decide where the line is???? Here's a thought for you, shocking as it may be, why don't all those who dress inappropriately stay in thier houses?????????????? So that they don't have to "deal with" all of us who may find their attire offensive? Sound stupid??? Well, if the shoe fits....................

at least she's got the body to go with the outfit.

It's better than seeing love handles coming out of low rider pants that I'm seeing on a lot of girls.


Yes. The outfit is on the skimpy side but, it would be a whole lot worse if she didn't look like Paris Hilton. The girls that wear something like this and are 20 lbs or more overweight are the ones who need a reality check and a shirt. It is a total pet peeve of mine to see fat rolls hanging out of low rider pants and cropped spandex shirts. My mom told me...nobody is perfect but, the ones we think are have learned to highlight their best features and play down their flaws. Its not complicated.
 
We were there last month and it was soo hot. There were many people dressed like that. Alot of people put shirts on and off to cool down throughout the day. It didn't bother me at all except on one occasion. While we were on the ferry boat to MK one couple were obnoxious- all over each other in front of everyone. The woman was dressed in a string bikini and skirt. They were in front of us at the turnstiles, and the CM told her she needed to put a shirt on. She stood there and argued and the CM just laughed and explained how it's a family place, and there are alot of kids. She said that it's the adults paying for the kids and the adults shouldn't have to change just for the kids.

I don't mind people trying to cool off, but she her behavior was inappropriate. If we were at a pool it would've been fine. Come on! Show some respect for others!
 
Who are YOU to decide where the line is????

And who are you? The thing is this is your opinion. You find it offensive and indecent to go out with a bikini top and shirt on while others don't. That doesn't mean these particular people lack self-respect, that's your opinion. Others may agree with you and others may think that wearing that shows confidence. What is and isn't decent is a hazy line-some people have a higher tolerance for some things than others and we shold be respectful of each other's opinions. And personally, I think the "stupid" comment was uncalled for.

In my opinion indecency is indecent regardless of size. Once while riding the Jungle Cruise my son and I got to sit right behind a young girl with a fabulous body in such low riding shorts you could see her whole butt. I was embarrassed and irritated. It would have been no worse if she had been 20 pounds (oh my goodness can you imagine being 20 whole pounds overweight) heavier. Bad taste comes in all shapes and sizes and there is never any excuse for it.
 
Yeah, personally I think what's "decent" is pretty subjective, but I agree with the poster above that said it has nothing to do with size...

I mean, I'm heavy, and if I wore a bikini to WDW I may not be "hot" (attractive, not temperature) in it, but as long as it covers my entire breast I'm no more indecent than a skinny girl wearing the same thing...

To me, that would be like saying it's decent for my plumber to show me "crack" as long as he looks like Brad Pitt and not Norm from cheers (just picking "built" versus round here).. I mean, Brad Pitt may have a more attractive rear, but it's still "crack," nonetheless.

As for the girl in the pic? I wouldn't wear something like that (regardless of if I was thin or heavy) simply because I'd be afraid a string would break or something would slip and I'd have a Janet Jackson moment.. but really, it's nothing more than you'd see at a water park or the beach, so it wouldn't freak me out..
 
Not sure where this "great body" comments are coming from. She's too skinny. So is Paris Hilton. I think women are much more attractive when they have women's bodies, not the bodies of twelve year old boys.
 
Could be worse...in Myrtle Beach the trend of the kids that ride the non Harley bikes is to have a girl on the back with a very short dress w/o any bathing suit/panties/thong. Hard to ignore when their whiney bikes pass you with their dresses billowing over their heads. What a special treat for my DS's:rolleyes: After a week, I became immune to it. Wouldn't their parents be proud!!!!

There's a fine line between dressing like a 'Ho and being tastefully sexy. Either way, what's appropriate in a club doesn't "fly" in a family amusement park - no matter how hot it gets. Save it for the water parks/beach. BTW, Myrtle Beach has a law against thongs on the beach. Not sure what the rules are in FL.
 
I find her attractive and in good shape, minding her own business. I am more offended by out-of-shape people. That is more offensive to the eye. I'd rather have my children see the lady in the picture than someone who doesn't take care of their body.
Just my opinion.
 
Wow, I didn't gather that this thread would get that much attention.

For the record, I just posted the picture, and for anyone who ASSUMED (you know what they say about THAT word!) that I had a problem with it, you ASSUMED WRONG. I never looked down on her for wearing it, I just thought it was a good picture to post to make my point, which was:

"When you wear/do something in a public place, you have no control over where it goes or whose hands it ends up in." So, just be mindful and take this into account when doing/wearing something. You could end up on allearsnet and be viewed by thousands or millions of people!

For those who say she has a good body--I'm not saying she doesn't, but HOW in the world can you tell if she's skinny, fat, or just right? Maybe you guys have magnifying eyes, but its just so tiny how can you tell? Yes, she has a good "outline," but outlines aren't always what they appear up close.

I agree with the posters who wonder how anyone could be comfy in that top. More power to her if she is comfy, but I'd be so concerned about things flying out around the turns of the "mountains" that I wouldn't be able to enjoy my day. To each their own! :banana:

First of all I didn't tell you to stay in your house, I was simply making the point that if you're so easily offended by what people wear it must be hard for you to go anywhere as I'm sure there are people you find offensive almost everywhere. I wasn't being literal,sorry if you took it that way. I did read your post clearly by the way, I went back and re read it to make sure I had.

I have tons of general respect and courtesy for people, but I don't agree with you, and that certainly doesn't mean I lack respect.If you don't care what I have to say why did you respond with such anger and defensiveness?If you really didn't care you would have just moved on.

Lastly, if you need to resort to name calling,and childish insults because someone disagrees with you,than you need to practice having some respect and common decency before you go telling other people they don't have any. Have a wonderful day:)
