bcs819 Posted July 19, 2008 #51 Share Posted July 19, 2008 Even the ships that STILL have "funnel deck-adults only" areas aren't NEKKID, just topless! Is there even such a thing as a NEKKID pool on ANY cruise ship????Donna Newer NCL ships have a freestyle deck...clothing optional. What's the big deal with a naked pool? Does anyone think the bathing suit is keeping anything hygienic out of the water? Puh-leeze.... why must we always ridicule someone that asks these types of questions.... so, maybe you don't want to see people naked, maybe some of us don't want to see you dressed.... to each his/her own....

bcs819 Posted July 19, 2008 #52 Share Posted July 19, 2008 OMG,they'd have to give that thing a good scrubbing before I'd sail after 'em. :eek: It's not a specific ship...each year they charter an existing ship. I believe Carnival ships HAVE been part of their charters... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nrdsb4 Posted July 19, 2008 #53 Share Posted July 19, 2008 Personally I would not even book a cruise on any ship that allowed passengers to be nude on any deck. :mad: Surely, you are not serious. Morality cannot be legislated but when it is not expected, rampant Immorality will surely follow.:cool: Sorry, don't mean to preach but can you just imagine a bunch of old codgers like me running around (make that walking around) nude.:D Just the thought is enough to be sickening.:eek: Sunbathing nude would not be my thing, but neither do I judge someone who enjoys doing so as being "immoral." Morals have nothing to do with this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JerseyshoreBruce Posted July 19, 2008 #54 Share Posted July 19, 2008 He was justing being funny....Why does everybody like to argue lately on this board.....Its all just opinions...personally I wouldn't want everybody walking around nude either.

Pegs222 Posted July 19, 2008 #55 Share Posted July 19, 2008 Got the image of George on Seinfield saying "the water I had been swimming was very cold...when I dropped the towel their had been significant shrinkage..." Questions like this can be answered (original post, not Pegs 222's) on one click to carnival.com or whatever cruise line your are sailing on... 5 posts, keep that in mind. :rolleyes: Poor George, never could get a break. Have you seen the M&M commercial? Reminds me of George all the time. :eek: There are just some people that should never be seen w/o some kind of covering.

No need for chilling out, I'm stating calmly my opinion about his statements about morals, which I have every right to do. The OP asked a yes or no question, there was no need to attack their morality. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FLCruiser001 Posted July 19, 2008 #57 Share Posted July 19, 2008 Our town has a hotel that has a "top less pool" it has a full wall around it with plexiglass so you can see in, but it is topless. I was talking to a person online onetime and she was europian. She read it to mean you could go topless. and she did. to the OP. some of the responss you received were rude and some were just trying to be funny. Most people that would cruise on the ecstasy are from the BIBLE Belt area and would definately NOT enjoy the freedom or even want others to enjoy it. Most do not understand that nudism isn't about being "dirty" or hormonal. It's about a person desire to free themselves from bindings and enjoy themselves. I am not a nudist, although I do enjoy a good day around the house in a bathrobe from time to time. But I educated myself so that I wouldn't be prejudice about such issues. Very well said.

dan40 Posted July 19, 2008 #58 Share Posted July 19, 2008 IF Carnival ever did allow nude swimming :rolleyes: who on earth would want to clean the pool? Would the staff have to pick straws, shortest one gets the job? :eek: Didn't you ever notice that big lever by the pool? At night they just push that down and it "flushes" the pool into the ocean. Then it refills. Sometimes they have to "jiggle" the lever to stop the refill from running over. Dan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then it refills. Sometimes they have to "jiggle" the lever to stop the refill from running over. Dan Yes, in fact I was in the pool when they were draining it. It was during the day as we were leaving port. Not sure why they did that. I was just making a silly observation on who would clean the pool if there were a nude pool. The bible belt conversation and whatever a person thinks a nude swimming pool should be allowed and to put the two in the same sentence is quite odd. You can either be for a nude pool or not, there is no reason to put religion in the mix. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bcs819 Posted July 20, 2008 #68 Share Posted July 20, 2008 Are you for real? I would book an NCL cruise if I knew this were true. Is this true on every ship? Only on newer ships - I was on the Norwegian Jewel earlier this year and they had it. Small like the funnel deck, so if you're going to watch, they're won't be a whole lot of people, but the option is there. However, the rest of the cruise was so awful we would never sail NCL again... http://www.ncl.com/nclweb/fleet/deckplan.html?shipCode=JEWEL Look at deck 15 all the way forward....

JDOUGLEJ Posted July 20, 2008 #70 Share Posted July 20, 2008 I was not trying to be funny. I was merely stateing what every conservative I know thinks. You know, MY REAL OPINION!!!! Unlike so many conservatives I am not afflicked with the I don't want to get involved disease. Not trying to upset anyone, however, facts or facts, and when when we let things we consider wrong happen anyway they will only get worse in time. I hope everyone has great cruises. I know we will.

Magic City Cruiser Posted July 20, 2008 #71 Share Posted July 20, 2008 Reporting from the 3rd hole on the Bible Belt, I'd love a nude pool!

dan40 Posted July 20, 2008 #73 Share Posted July 20, 2008 The question was a NUDE pool, not a top or clothing optional deck in a discreet location. The pools are always close by the buffet. Knowing the look of the typical cruiser [self included]. With a NUDE pool the buffet might as well close down. Appetites would be ruined.:eek: Aren't the Speedos off-putting enough?

sam1148 Posted July 20, 2008 #75 Share Posted July 20, 2008 Some of the ports of call have nude beaches. But, if you have any piercings with jewelry, take them out before swimming in the ocean. You don't want any spinner bait in there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
