This person makes a good comment. They aren't telling people what they need to do, just making a suggestion and they sound like they would understand if someone did go elsewhere in their thong.

YES WE DO UNDERSTAND AGAIN FOR US ITS JUST ABOUT RESPECT YOU ARE ON VACATION AND EVERYONE SHOULD BE HAVING A GREAT TIME BUT THERE IS OTHER PLACES TO GO TOPLESS OR WEAR THONGS EVERYONE SHOULD LEARN TO RESPECT PEOPLE IN THIS CRAZY WORLD WE LIVE IN

Can anyone advise if thong bathing suits are allowed on the topless sun decks of Carnival ships? I know this may sound weird for a topless deck, but tops and bottoms are sometimes
different rules. Not sure that I will wear one, but want to know my options.
Thanks

Since your original question was about the topless deck only....I don't believe there would be anything wrong with it. Children are not allowed up there and anyone who is offended by a thong, won't be hanging around the topless deck. Problem solved!!

Am I the only person who has noticed that the original question was posted in September of 2005? nearly a year ago? Or that the poster has not replied? Just wondering.............

I'm assuming that since now the topless decks/ adult are unfortunately obselete on Carnival ships that a thong is out of the question as well?

Thongs have never been considered appropriate attire.

Thongs are actually against the Law in the city of Daytona but they are allowed on the beach

Personally they dont do anything for me due to being exposed to way too many people that shouldnt even wear them.
99.5 out of mabye 100 who wear them really shouldnt.

Okay, MrOctober....where in the heck was that photo taken???

The reason I ask is....a few years back (I think it was 2002) we cruised on NCL out of Houston, and one of the ports of call was Cancun....and when our tender docked and we were walking toward the beach we were acosted (I can think of no more appropriate word! *L*) with the sight of an elderly couple who obviously had been out in the sun every day for many, many, many (did I say many?) years. They were wrinkled and leathery and the man was in speedos and the woman in a bikini bottom and topless!!!!!

The woman (who, thankfully, we are only seeing from the back side of the moon) in that photo looks like she could be our topless granny greeter in Cancun!

someone emailed it to me ...it's all over the web...if she's topless it's not because she doesnt have a top on as you can see the tie's. altho I think at her age the tie's in the back should probably be moved down a foot if there is anything up front. if that makes sense
