Sometimes tans work, sometimes they do not. Generally I like them.

I don't like them. If it's their natural skin color then cool, but tanlines look worse on a person than just having light or pale skin.... which I actually prefer.

But really, I own a boat and work outside a lot, so I'm tan pretty much year round For a white person I have a darker complexion than most.

As for women, I like them tan. Most girls seem to over do it, whether it's natural or fake tanning. Looking like a burn victim is not attractive.

And maybe it's harsh to say this, but pasty white skin is disgusting to me. I know nature makes them that way, but some people need to get outside more often.

My tan comes with the spring and summer and leaves with the winter and fall. I'm a lightskin black guy though so I'm not pale. I like natural tans. I dont care if a woman's (no matter the race, skin color) tan goes and comes with the seasons like mine. Fake tans are horrible.

When we talk about fake tans, do we mean spray on tans, or tanning beds? Or both?


I've always thought of both when I hear fake tan

the problem with tanning beds/spray tans is that people don't know when to stop. it becomes almost like an addiction. after a short while, they turn into this burnt orange color and it just looks ridiculous. you all know what i'm talking about.

i'm a sucker for tan lines tho. not sure why.

I used to be tan as a tan irish/german guy could be. Paying for it now...have had 3 pre cancers cut off in the last few years. I may be in florida...but it is suncreen all the time for me. My wife was never a tanner...she is 41 now and still has beautiful skin with no wrinkles.

I'm white. I am outside a lot in the summer and my skin gets tanner, then back to white in the winter.

I don't care about tans UNLESS I see someone who is doing so much fake baking that it looks disgusting ... ie: snooki or that tan mom lol

I prefer people who have lighter skin, that said someone who by nationality that would be tan is fine by me. One of my better friends is Lebanese and she is absolutely gorgeous.

I asked this because I notice wayy more attention when I've been outside for the weekend and have a tan going on.. and I just like girls with natural tans. Or is that because girls with natural tans are always in good shape?



Aside from homeless people that is.

Just like anything else in life, not pale, but not too tan... just in the middle... just right.

But, for me, tan LINES are unattractive.

i could go either way very pale like Stoya or natural sunlight tanning, but nothing obsessive like bronzing/fake tanning and what not ala jersey shore even if its natural.


me, i dont get much sun anymore so im pale as hell and because i dont see the sun anymore i burn very easily now. was not the case 10 years ago when i was dark as hell due to being on the swim team.

I don't care either way - some pale girls are sexy as hell, some tan girls are not.. though I absolutely abhor fake tans. Those orange bitches who think they're hot shit, wear enough makeup to join the circus and can usually be found touting the "duckface" are NASTEEE.

playboy morning shw was talking tan lines the othermorning and this chick was saying how she loved them because its like your seeing something your not supposed to. like seeing a nude breast is less exciting then a boob pooing out on accident. just though i would share.

I'm of British descent and am therefore pasty. That said, I like my women pale for some reason. I'm a total sucker for a redhead with really pale skin. You know the type. Strawberry blonde especially. Thankfully my gf fears the sun and has skin like a porcelain doll. Pale and flawless.

I didn't see the Jersey Shore/Orange option.
That said, I am Italian (southern) so I am naturally quite tan, so some color is good, pasty not so much
