I know it's a slightly weird question, but a lot of guys are like, "Why don't you tan? Have you tried tanning? Do you like being pale?" Etc. I'm wondering if they ask it because they think I'm ugly. But then on the other hand I have 29 year old guys asking me out... and they are CUTE. So I'm thinking is it something to do with them being young? Or what? (btw I'm under 18.)

Say this is me and I prefer not to get cancer! Like yourself for who you are. If you feel you are too pale, try applying makeup.

Lol... make up? Ugh. Tan line anyone?? AND that's what I say... skin cancer, wrinkles, leathery skin, all by 40 if I tan. But I am happy with my skin, but I was just wondering if it was a BIG TURN OFF for guys. That's all. I know how to fix it. Go to a tanning booth, or do self tanner.

I've seen a lot of guys that are with women on the paler side. Have you ever noticed that a lot of models nowadays are pale? ;)

True. That is another thing I pointed out, I said well look at vogue, and all high fashion... a lot of women in there are a lot paler than me, and it's not like I'm a sickly pale, I have color to my face...

Sweetie I wouldn't worry about it. Men have their preferences just like women do. I think pale skin is beautiful and natural looking. Too much of a tan looks unhealthy, rough and leathery. I'm sure you are beautiful :)

By the way, if you do decide to try and add a little color to your face, try a nice bronzer. You don't have to wear foundation, that might cause make-up lines if you can't find the right color to match your face. :)

You're welcome :)

Next time someone picks on you for your skin color, just tell them you prefer natural. :)

As you woman you got to love yourself!

If the guys think that is a turn off then they are not for you!

I think pale is beautiful, very classy.:)

Hottrodder246 · Sep 8, 2007, 09:28 PM

There only one way to say this... just be happy with yourself... it doenst matter what anyone else thinks. As long as you feel good inside, nobody can hurt you.

Hottrodder246 · Sep 8, 2007, 09:39 PM

By the way this may sound a little kinky but I like pale girls... lol.

br_hjs · Sep 8, 2007, 09:44 PM

Tell them that its not worth tanning to get cancer and live a shorter life. People shouldn't care about how you look... tell them that everyone else probably tans and is going to have a higher chance of skin cancer and their skin will probably look really bad when they are older

nauticalstar420 · Sep 8, 2007, 09:47 PM

You are right br_hjs, I know someone who is "older" (I hate that word.. lol) and she has tanned three times a week all of her life, and her skin does not look that great, at all. It looks very leathery and un-natural.

br_hjs · Sep 8, 2007, 09:48 PM

I never tan

br_hjs · Sep 8, 2007, 09:49 PM

My skins like really white... I've been told I look like a ghost and I just tell people I don't care

Slayandkill · Sep 8, 2007, 09:55 PM

Does the pale skin come with a goth attached then yes I love them! Lol
