I would rather him be dressed comfortably than to be uncomfortable just to satisfy the self appointed formal night dress code police. How about the self appointed slovenly dressed police?

Are some guys so selfish not even to respect their partner’s desire to dress up? Are some ladies so selfish not even to respect their partners desire to dress down? Don’t take away a dudes man card 😂 It’s a man’s right to dress like a homeless person, go out, and not give a crap what people think of his appearance Edited July 26, 2022 by Cruise till you drop 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GottaLuvCruising Posted July 26, 2022 #183 Share Posted July 26, 2022 Just off a 7 day cruise (then 4 day land tour.) Wonderful vacation. Didn't notice or give a rodent's back side what anybody wore. Didn't see a single naked person on deck. It's all good. The fashion police do like to get their panties in a wad. I waver between ignoring / laughing at them. IMHO dress codes are outdated and irrelevant. 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ImperialLady Posted July 26, 2022 #195 Share Posted July 26, 2022 I have only been on 6 cruises but the most interesting person I ever met on a cruise was a 77 year old farmer who wore his new overalls, a crisp white shirt and a red, white and blue tie for both 'formal nights,' as well as every other night. He just happened to be quite wealthy (we found this out on the last night of the cruise when he bought champagne for our table of 8, several bottles.) We looked forward to dinner every night just to hear the stories Mr. W shared with us of his life. When we met him the first night we were charmed and continued to be every night. I don't care what anyone wears as long as they are decently dressed and don't stink. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't care what anyone wears as long as they are decently dressed and don't stink. Great story. On one of my formal nights on NCL. there was a table with dad, son and their family. They gentelman were both in their military dress. One general. One Stf Sargent. I walked over to thank them for their service after their dinner and to shake their hands. And I was dressed like this. they both loved my attire and both said. man I wish my wife would let me wear that for dinner. Lol. It was such a memorable moment for me as they were such a nice family I got so many guys telling me man I wish I could get away with that lol my wife would kill me. moral of the story. Never judge a book by its cover. You just never know who’s behind that cover. Edited July 26, 2022 by Ptroxx 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We normally don't attend 'formal' nights because it's his vacation and I don't want me or anyone else dictating to him what me must wear to be 'acceptable' to others. But this trip we will...his choice only because on our first trip to Alaska very, very few men were dressed up. So he decided a white shirt, tie and sweater would be his formal attire. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just never wear pants. Been this way for a very long time. And being a UPS driver I never had the need to wear pants. being retired now the last thing I want to do is get dressed up. And I have the shirt to prove it Lolol. I have very nice dress shorts and nice button up dress shirts and if they won’t let me in then I’ll eat somewhere else. it’s no sweat off my back. Going to Alaska in 5 days on Discovery. I’ll have a pair of jeans for excursions if it’s too cold. Which is rare for me lol has to be under 30° to put pants on. Lol. and if there’s something in the MDR a I really want to eat I guess I’ll miss out. as long as I’m enjoying myself. A meal doesn’t make ruin my trip. Lol. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have seen men in nice shorts on Mexico and Caribbean locations...like I said, as long as someone is decent, nothing showing that should be covered, and don't stink I don't care what they wear...it's what's in their heart that really matters. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wow 79 and still at it. That’s awesome. Being with UPS so long my body just couldn’t take it anymore. So for now I’m taking it easy for a while to let these old bones have a break and maybe after a while and I get as much traveling in I’ll go be a greater at Walmart or Home Depot CS helper. but for now I’m going to relax and enjoy not jumping in and out of a brown truck 500 times a day. Lolol. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
