Why do white men tan their skin if they prefer white women?

[Babygirl_S]

Shouldn’t they like women with the same skin tones they try to achieve with excessive sun exposure or tanning products?

Natural brown skin> tanned red skin because natural things are always better

I’m sorry but red skin doesn’t look better than natural golden or light brown skin

I've actually never met a man who goes out of their way to tan and the only one that comes to mind is Trump. Though he doesn't really get a tan. Just sprays himself. Maybe he thinks being "tan" gives the impression that he works hard, like men who work outdoor jobs? I'm not really sure. But I think as it relates to his interest in women, I think he doesn't date non-white women because he thinks they're inferior.

For other white men, the vast majority I've been friends with or in my family, aren't exclusively interested in white women. Myself included. But again, none of us tan, either.

[blueonblack22]

Trump actually has a skin condition called rosacea and his spray tanning was done to cover it up. https://youtu.be/OE5s--e2L_s?si=JyfBxLntU_r3f1WH

[DrPepper12]

I go out of my way to natural tan. Just looks better on me.

[Nirmroth]

Like how white pale skin was a beauty factor when the majority of people still had to be outside and plow the fields, a pale skin was only reserved for the rich.

Now that the opposite is the case that a majority sits inside an office all day a tanned skin is attractive as it implies this person has time to go outside and is active.

[Nirmroth]

Not to mention a white persons tan looks still different than the tan of a black or brown person

[Babygirl_S]

Natural brown skin looks better than painfully red skin so yeah

[Babygirl_S]

And a brown person’s skin without a tan looks exactly like the shades some people paint themselves with and call “light tan”

[Nirmroth]

Red skin happens to only those that have skin type I as they can't get brown. Thats usually red heads and some blondes aswell. I am blond guy with skin type II. I get tanned but it takes very long about 1-2 weeks in the sun if I dont want to get red. But it looks pretty good

Nautarl brown skin looks better as long as it isn't to brown or dark like you see in spain farmers for example

[Babygirl_S]

It always looks fake and painfully red

[Babygirl_S]

No even the European guys with dark hair get sunburns and the so-called tan is not brown but reddish so it looks awful. Looks like the person was trying to get a bronze or golden skin but ended up getting a sunburn.

[Babygirl_S]

Are you telling me there’s no Indian with a skin tone like this:

https://pin.it/4VvVQws4M

[Nirmroth]

I don't know what you're to trying to get across here. That guy you showed me is no indian isn't he? Indian have more brown/bronze skin.

And yes europeana are more likely to get sunburns at least the one in northern countries. Italians, spain, greek etc get brown way more easily and faster

[Nirmroth]

Remember beauty is subjective

[Babygirl_S]

I didn’t say he was Indian but are you unaware of the fact that many Indians have the same skin tone that he painted himself with? It’s only the South Indians who are much darker brown. People from North India have similar skin tones naturally

[Nirmroth]

You think he used tan paint?
Okay nice that north indians have the same skin tone, I still dont get what point you want to make?

[Babygirl_S]

Of course, even his palms were stained and I could see the areas where it had come off. Besides he has a pinkish skin which can’t turn olive toned through sun exposure

[Babygirl_S]

I’m trying to figure out why they try to have a skin like the girls they don’t prefer. Asians like fair skin but that extends to anyone with fair skin. We don’t discriminate saying “I don’t like a white person’s fair skin”

[Nirmroth]

Because Asian people look different other than the color of their skin. When he is attracted to europeans "white race" then thats simply how it is.

People usually prefer to date within their own race anyway

[Babygirl_S]

Not always. Many white people don’t look too white. For example, Michele Morrone looks very South Asian. Of course East Asians look different but it doesn’t apply to all Indians

[Nirmroth]

I agree its hard to tell sometimes from which "race" a person is. Even the nazis who were all about race failed to find a fool proof method.

Anyways are you envy of white people getting more attention or were does this lead?

[Babygirl_S]

Not at all. I find it annoying that you think red skin looks better than natural golden/brown skin. That simply isn’t the case. Many Indians have such skin tones naturally

[Nirmroth]

Did I ever said that? Tho you see red skin on natives not on europeans

[Nirmroth]

And if you mean sunburns well no one thinks that looks goof

[Babygirl_S]

Sunburns look painful and funny 😹

[Babygirl_S]

European “tan” looks like they were slapped red by the sun 🙂

[Nirmroth]

They not only look that way they are. I get sunburned fast without cover.

Thats still called a sunburn or can you give me an example what you mean?

[ohsheeT]

First of all men are men and women are women.

Second of all I love getting a tan because it makes me feel good. . And my body needs the vitamin d

Third of all. What does getting a tan have to do with race.

. The way I see it is our loving God not knowing where we were going to live on this planet that has many harsh elements and conditions made it so our bodies would adapt to the extreme conditions to keep us safe from all the extreme conditions in harsh elements this planet offers I'm sure that after a long period of time of sun exposure it would start to change your DNA to protect your skin your pigment. .

I still don't understand what this has to do with race

[molonski2]

Every place is the same , here local born use whitening cream and do all to avoid sun ( heavy tan is considered low class ) while white skin Europeans ( not me ) and constantly trying to tan themselves , over time , you see exactly why local Thais wish to avoid sun ( it has nothing to do with cancer ) ..

Same same as your question..

[Babygirl_S]

This didn’t answer my question. Asians like pale skin whether it’s an Asian or white person with such skin.

[molonski2]

It does , same reasoning..
European and USA dudes like to tan themselves , as do many white women.
Its same reasoning.

[Babygirl_S]

Maybe you didn’t understand my question

[molonski2]

I understand.. the result or answer remains the same , white people like to tan..
Dark people like to white

USA and Europeans like girls with tanned skin.. generally , personally I never cared because in Australia we are very skin cancer aware.

[blueonblack22]

It’s more about looking better in general. I know at least in the USA that pale white skin isn’t considered attractive.

I am a very fair skinned guy. I never intentionally tan (i am at a higher risk of skin cancer) but the times I’ve gotten tanned from being outdoors I often gotten compliments later about it.

[Jersey2]

White skin that has been in the sun produces a nice tan which is different from just brown skin. It gives you a glow, inside and out.

It compliments your lighter hair as well and will even lighten your hair. White women are our logical choice and I think they look superb.

[Babygirl_S]

Not all of you look good pretty much like any race

[Babygirl_S]

And no it looks red and trashy not glowing

[Oncewildtwiceburned]

Where I live we almost all work outside. Americans are mixed with southern Europeans and even native Americans. Some of us just get pretty dark. My family is pretty much a different color in the summer due to winter clothes and cloud cover both.

Plenty of attractive white guys actually prefer other races. Its the women in predominantly white areas that make a big stink about it out if jealousy.

[JesseP1nk]

"why white women use blush makeup if they like to be white, do they secretly wish to be red?" "Why white women color their hair to black, do they secretly wish to be blacks?"

[Babygirl_S]

They want to add colour instead of looking pasty

[Berethor]

It can be the light girl, dark boy trope, they consider dark skin to be masculine, also not all white men tan their skin, it well known nowadays that being a lot in the sun is unhealthy.

[Babygirl_S]

No because all Hollywood celebrities whether male or female appear tanned in the films and also look darker than many white people. Also, if dark skin is more masculine does this mean white men are the most feminine men?

[Berethor]

East Asians are the most feminine men, as tend to be small. Blacks might be the most masculine. Black women have high testosterone level, you can read about it in the link.

[Babygirl_S]

So you’re saying a black man is more masculine than a white man?

[Berethor]

Seems so, how else would you explain that blacks are killing other blacks so much?

www.ojp.gov/.../black-black-homicide-psychological-political-perspective

[Babygirl_S]

Does committing crimes make one more masculine?

[Berethor]

Being highly violent and highly sexual is connected to testosterone, so it masculine.

www.folxhealth.com/.../five-ways-your-sex-life-can-change-after-testosterone-hrt

[Babygirl_S]

Interesting but women don’t prefer highly violent men

[Berethor]

Yes the dating statistics are showing that, being hypermasculine has a downsides.

[glennos89]

Personally I find that white people with a little team look more healthy ( overall better looking)

I'm not talking about people who tan their skin too much. A little tan is good, a lot of tam looks fake

[DrPepper12]

I am white and I would much rather be tan like I am in the summer. I'm also very attracted to tan white girls - those bikini tan lines are just amazingly 🔥!!

I also like Persian and Indian women too!! I can't stand pasty milk white women 🤮

[Pohjolan]

To attract the opposite sex by demonstrating that they are able to get a tan.

In some countries like Singapore its the opposite as its harder not to get a tan.

[Babygirl_S]

So basically they don’t like your pink skin

[Pohjolan]

No its a bit like women buy more expensive bags that are not even better than the cheaper ones.
Its signalling wealth to a extent.
Though one doesn't even necessarily have to go on a very expensive vacation to get a tan nowadays.

[Jackblue]

The kind of white guys who tan their skin are liberals who date women of color not out of genuine love but to call themselves progressive.

[Babygirl_S]

All Trump supporters tan

[Jackblue]

Well anyway I wouldn't know, I have never been to a tanning salon and nobody I know has.

[Oncewildtwiceburned]

We work outside lol

[Oncewildtwiceburned]

We work outside

[Jennz6]

I don’t care what skin tone or color they have

[Bklynbadboy12]

See this is why I love you. I wish every and that same perception. Thank you for always being amazing!!!

[Jennz6]

@Bklynbadboy12 thank you baby

[Bklynbadboy12]

Your welcome

[LiamJHayden]

Not everyone is fixated on skin color. I do tan, but that is what happens when one lives at the beach.

[EnjoytheDay777]

My last ex was Indian and quite dark. And I'm a white. Pale. No tan.

[noohair]

I have been wondering about that for 60 years. People have said that it looks healthier.

[beefcakebradybatson]

Just another odd thing about white folk !!!1

[Arkire]

This sounds like a cultural thing. Where I live, I've never heard of a guy tanning outside of boom grandpa's.

[NathanDavis]

I love all skin...

[paledreams]

I also agree 👍🏻

[MrGSpotHer]

No idea 😂

[MrGSpotHer]

Red is burned
