I'm not Indian, I'm native american. My wife is Indian. Her pigmentation does not rub off on me. :p

No worries. I won't. Instead, I like going out with short sleeved shirts and shorts in 30C, high UV days to make my arms and face disproportionately brown compared to my torso. Hope they can cure arm cancer in 5 years.

I am leery of any man who goes into anyplace that has "salon" in the name, unless drug there by an SO.

Now...if you just misspelled Saloon, okay, but usually they don't have Tanning Saloons.

Are you serious? Tanning? God....

Only dude who could pull this off was Patrick Bateman and that's because he brutally murdered people to make up for it.

farmer tan FTW!


i have one as well, but it is a 3 stager. i wear sleeveless when im not at work and sleeves at work. my shoulders are lighter tan than my arms, my torso is goth chick ass white.


and native americans (indians as in feather, not red dot) are still fairly dark skinned. the "office manager" here is navajo and must be afraid of the sun she avoids it so much, but she is dark all the time. im half mexican, i tan well and dont burn until ive been outside in the summer sun over 6 or 7 hours, but still go a bit white if i dont see the sun for a while.

I'm 100% dude. ;)

What is funny is all the guys here thinking that only women tan - so you think it looks normal when a pasty white guy hooks up with a nicely tanned chick? Riiight...

In fact, I did.

You seriously go nude? I have never gone totally nude... that grosses me out a bit. I go topless with minimum bottomage but still... I would not my full butt on the tanning bed. Even if it is all in my mind.

SL, how do you uhm... keep your stuff from getting burnt?

Well I was just making an ironic joke. :p

But you should look it up, its not FDA approved, and the DHA solutions might contains lead, mercury, and arsenic...
