A vacationer received warnings from fellow travelers after noticing \u201ccute little pineapples\u201d affixed to cruise ship doors. While they\u2019re often seen as aesthetic tributes to tropical fruits, their meaning can change dramatically in certain contexts \u2013 bring on the upside-down pineapple.\n
Typically, pineapple emblems and ornaments are appreciated for their decorative appeal. With roots in territories like West Africa and Latin America. In popular culture, pineapples are famously associated with Nickelodeon\u2019s \u201cSpongeBob SquarePants,\u201d where the main character lives in a pineapple under the sea.\n
However, on adult cruises, pineapples take on a more provocative meaning, as discovered by TikToker Dominique (@blogionistatravels). Dominique, documenting her first cruise experience on social media, shared a video featuring various cabin doors adorned with pineapple stickers.\n
\n
The 15-second clip, which has garnered 21 million views since its September 2022 posting, shows Dominique walking down a cruise ship corridor. Noting the very specific decorations on doors. She captioned the video, \u201cWhen you\u2019re on your first cruise and you see that everyone has these little cute pineapples on their door.\u201d\n
The video sparked numerous reactions from viewers, some offering humorous and cautionary advice. One TikTok user remarked, \u201cThe welcome one with the butterfly makes me think it\u2019s a sweet old lady that thinks ppl just decorate with pineapples on cruises & want to decorate.\u201d Another quipped, \u201cStill waiting on name of cruise\u2026 for a friend of course.\u201d\n
\n
The presence of pineapples on cruise doors is more than just innocent decoration. According to Cruisehive, pineapples are a well-known symbol indicating an interest in swinging. These motifs, often displayed upside down, act as a covert signal for swinger parties and wife-swapping.\n
Pineapples aren\u2019t the only indicator used by swingers. Many adopt subtle signals such as wearing black rings or moving their wedding bands from the left to the right hand. For those who prefer to be open about their preferences, there are dedicated adult-only swingers cruises available.\n
As one commenter advised, \u201cBaby just keep walking,\u201d it\u2019s clear that not everyone is aware of the hidden meanings behind these decorations. For unsuspecting travelers, it\u2019s a humorous yet informative reminder of the diverse and sometimes unexpected customs encountered while cruising.\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
