Well, I'm a Cali girl... so tan is what I'm around the most. And even before I moved to Cali a couple years ago, the other areas in the countries I have lived in before were Sunny and near the beach, so I'm used to it because of that too. I don't have a preference towards the opposite gender's skin type, but someone with dark tan skin and blonde hair, or dark tan skin with blue eyes are more unique (which intrigues me more).

I kinda like both actually. Maybe lend a little bit more to tan (in the opposite sex then). I have a very pale skin. White as snow and I hated it for a long time, because I was being mocked on for it, but now I learned to like my pale skin and I would only look weird if I was tanned.
I voted tan, but I think both can be beautiful depending on what suits each person. I do think a healthy glow looks great on everyone, but what I truly think is most beautiful, is healthy and natural skin that hasn't been damaged either by skin bleaching, tanning beds, etc.
Pale...
Just because I'm pale and that's what I'm used to.
BUT I like any skin color - as long as it's not damaged by the sun but is in fact the natural skin color of that person.
I really don't care but if i'm forced to choose i choose pale. I'll never understand why any women who cares about her skin tans like they do. It doesn't add anything in my mind and turns your skin all leathery before you're old. and then you got the increased skin cancer danger.
Pale, it's more exotic... for me xD I come from an island, everyone is tanned there.
But I prefer that golden color that's between tanned and pale. So a little tanned is great, but not like you've been a whole week sunbathing.
by the way, tan lines are hot as hell :P

obsessed with tan and dark skin.
not saying i dislike pale skin.I like whatever looks the most natural be that pale or tan, plus some people go way, way overboard with the tanning.
Pale. I prefer natural beauty! I don't see any point in tanning one's skin. It's even dangerous for skin.
I like either one. I could completely avoid the sun and get super pale or be out in the sun and get bronze colored. I look prettier with pale skin but sexier with tan skin.
I like myself tanned a bit more than pale. I don't really care about others. I've crushes that are tanned and other crushes that are pale.
I like tanner skin but I think it depends on the person bc the girl above looks better in my opinion to have pale skin. So I voted A
Me and the sun do not get along well so I guess I prefer pale skin. I'm so pale I literally can't go outside for 10 minutes without sunscreen and not get burned
I prefer pale. If you have tanned skin as a result of Sun exposure, it's actually quite unhealthy.
In between, not too tan not too pale. People here in general have tan skin.
I like like natural dark tan girls like my ex girlfriend she was Pilipino and she had beautiful take. Skin I thought she was drop dead beautiful but on this girl pale skin
I prefer when people have tan skin but I have super pale skin so that sucks haha
I have a naturally deep tan and luuuurve men and women likewise :)
Bi grrrl right here :)I prefer tan on a girl but boys actually pale.
I strongly love both, but more on the tan side since I hate being pale or got pointed out for it a lot and it looks healthy and warm.I like both equally I think it all depends some people look better tan and some better pale or white. Both of their beauty to it.
I agree I like a little bit of a tan, too pale is just strange looking
I generally prefer pale skin, and at least on this girl, the pale skin makes her looks better.
I personally find pale girls infinitely more attractive than orange ones...
PALE like my FAV snow harpy @XNicholeMariex3
Tan, it reminds me of summer
I love dark skin on white people!
