Opinions on 'Disney Adults'?

[RoseandLillieee]

Bit of controversy regarding this? I feel there's a stigma. I personally wouldn't look at an adult who enjoys Disney and think wrong of them!

I have a 3yo and 1yo and I'm reliving my childhood a bit with some Disney stuff. We've been once (planning to go back) and they like the films and I think kids Disney clothing, accessories, homeward and toys etc are so cute!

I do like Disney stuff! I love the films, loved going to Disneyland Paris it was magical. But the other day a family member made a joke "oh be careful don't become a Disney adult"

I laughed it off but then thought why would it be bad if I enjoyed Disney trips etc? I don't personally dress in character clothing or have homeware but love the kids stuff and love Paris and the films etc

Is anyone else in agreement that the negativity around 'Disney adult' just needs to be dropped? Why so judgmental?

Each to their own really isn’t it, doesn’t bother me, apart from feeling a bit cringe when adults dress up in ears and get married at Disney and have Disney cutlery and stuff. That’s a bit weird ha ha

It’s not my cup of tea, but I am superbly geeky about some other things (and so is DP) so who am I to judge?

There’s a difference for me though in finding a childlike joy in things - such as Disney - which can be just lovely, and behaving childishly, which is not endearing in adults at all. I think the negative behaviours described by other posters fall largely into the second category.
