If I'm spending time and money to eat at a fine dining establishment, I don't want to be distracted by other guests. A gross generalization, which I have found to be true more often than not, is that people that insist on not dressing appropriately also don't act appropriately.That being said, I firmly believe in not judging a book by it's cover.

You can't assume that someone or a group is going to act inappropriate just because of the way they dressed. Like you said, don't judge a book by its cover.Now, Hardy, I think you need to reread my post before you make assumptions about me, which are erroneous, by the way. You posted you didn't see the point in dress codes. My post included what I thought Disney's point was in having them, besides respect, which pps have already eloquently stated. If you're questioning my analogy between inappropriate behavior and inappropriate attire, well, sorry Hardy, it happens all the time. And let me repeat myself, I believe this is one of Disney's
reasons for a dress code.The only thing I said about myself was that rules should be enforced, and that I don't want to be distracted by other diners, while fine dining.
I was actually trying to echo what you said with the don't judge a book by its cover. I didn't mean to offend you.. I was talking generally about people as a whole. Not making assumptions about you. I think we're misunderstanding each other here.
