Just read, after 60 years, Disney is going to allow theme park employees at its two U.S. theme-park resorts - including its more than 60,000 workers at Walt Disney World - grow beards or goatees. What do you think?

I think it's about time for Disney to move into the 21st century... I don't see it as an issue...
As long as it fits in their "neatly trimmed" guideline I have no problem with either. As long as it isn't this: http://i1229.photobucket.com/albums/...rell/beard.jpg
Did you mean 20th century? :wink:Quote:

Very strict criteria.
Maybe he can work at POTC.Quote:

I think beards have become a part of our culture. Beards have almost become synonymous with friendly people in a way I think.
Certainly you'd have to keep it clean and maintained but I see nothing wrong with it.
I think about bikers, hipsters, and hillbillies when I see most beards. Friendliness isn't one of the things brought to my mind.Quote:

I say "About time!" When I worked at the Disney Store I had a manager who thought that it was odd that a company founded by a man with a mustache had a ban on facial hair. :lol:Quote:

But then again I do not have a real frame of reference, it just seems to add another layer of stuff to do, to go to work. :dizzy:
Exactly. If Osama Bin Laden, Ulysses S. Grand and Henry VIII didn't have have beards, they would still be with us today.Quote:
