Can a guy get away with having pale skin in the summer?

I read all these questions asking about tans on guys in general and it seems as though it doesn't make much difference, but in the summer if most people have a tan and I am pale does it still not matter or does it make me look like a sad indoor creep? lol.

Also I don't know if it matters but my personality is quite light hearted and happy but I can be slightly nerdy sometimes too :p
Pale will make you look worse
Better to be tan but doesn't really matter
No difference
Pale is better
