The rest of the world outside the Caucasian countries agrees with you, but here it's a sign of wealth because it means you've done some traveling. Plus our pale skin isn't nice and smooth and pretty like an Asian's white skin, our's is all blotchy and sickly looking.

All fake tanning is equal. There's just one active ingrediant that causes a chemical reaction with your skin. Fake tanning only looks fake if it's done in excess. 1-2 nights of application when you sleep is fine. A third is too much. There was an old episode of Unscrewed on TechTV where Martian got sprayed with the high concentration stuff in one of those full body misting stations. He went from pasty nerd to guido brown over the course of the 30 min episode. I also like white skin, but it's not practical for a Caribbean vacation. One day I want to cruise to Alaska, or the arctic, and compare my white skin to the locals.

I put on SPF 60 sunscreen whenever I go out.

I only like to lay out in the summer and tan but I don't charbroil myself. I do use a self tanner, Banana Boat dark, as it really evens out my tan. A little tan is more attractive than ashy white or pink. Also a thin coat of tan oil really shows your definition (if you hopefully have any).

I hit the tanning bed for a couple of weeks before I went to Cozumel last April - I think it definitely helped me out. As it was, I only wasted one day indoors from sunburn

I avoid being in the sun. I do not want to get wrinkly or skin cancer when I am older. Plus lighter skin looks better on me (I am Asian).

Pretty much sums it up.

No man should ever be seen in a tanning salon. Keep that on the down-low

I would've guessed you were 34 easily. Then again, I'm in my mid-20's.
