I really can't recall any specific guidelines from Traditions or training or anything. There's of course workplace sexual harassment stuff, but it's all done in a CM-CM context.

IMO the common sense expectation works pretty well, and I haven't ever heard of anyone I know getting in trouble for fraternization.

having gone through traditions last week... there was nothing about dating guests and I would assume normal sexual harassment rules apply. I would also assume that asking guests out publicly while working would constitute as some form of harassment if the guest got offended... At traditions, someone did ask if they could ask out other cast members, and the Traditions assistant's response was: "god yes, if not you would be driving to Georgia for your dates!"

So if I decide to hump cran or Wallaby's leg when I'm in WDW and they like it, is that considered fraternization? What if my hubby does it?

My guess: Onstage, it's allowed only as long as it fits with their role and is good show. If you manage to get backstage with either (or both?) of them, of course, anything goes.

It's only allowed with Goofy or Pluto.

I had one night where I had a guy on board going from PI to Old Key West, and he wanted dating advice from me on picking up female Cast Members (did I mention he was drunk?), so I gave him some. Didn't say it was good... Here are the points I remember:
  • Make sure you don't talk to ladies with colleges on their nametags, as they're probably taken.
  • Don't pick women on the IP
  • Make sure they have a blue badge, as that means they are most assuredly single (while showing him my yellow badge from enough distance he wouldn't be able to read it).
There were other points, but I don't remember what I said. But I had fun! Gaw, I hope he didn't follow my advice... although it would be fun to see if he did...

As far as CM to guest sexual harrassment rules, I say that the moment they play a stimulating song (stimulating because of lyrics) at PI, the rules go out the window there. I mean, let them approach you first, but then all bets are off beyond the normal rules of engagement to see if you can make that hookup work.

Glad I'm quite happily taken and don't have to worry about any of that.


My opinions are mine and mine only. If my opinions are the opinion of others who happen to share whatever my crazy views may be, then fine, but it's not because I represent them in having my opinions. Got it?

Patient to me: "Is it alright if I date the Nurses?"
Me: "Errrrrr......Not while you are here in the Hospital!"
Really, if you are feeling that energetic, it is time for discharge ..... :D:
