I'm from a country where everyone tans easily… except from me. I have been mocked relentlessly because of it. And not just from acquaintances. Apparently, being pale, gives strangers the right to approach you and give you unsolicited advice while showing an overdramatized expression of disbelief and horror. Yes, random lady, I'm sure -as I have been trying to explain you for the last five minutes- more exposure to the sun won't give me a "healthy tan". My skin color is not "unhealthy", do you know what's unhealthy? Melanoma. Anyways, be comfortable on your own skin, both literally and metaphorically. Plus, asians age better not just because of good genes, they know the secret is sunscreen, lots of it.
I had a bf in hs who told me I could tan " just like his sister's" if I just sat in the Sun. I told him " your sister's are Mexican, I'm Irish!" he just didn't get it.
I once worked in an office where a younger woman tanned heavily. Someone once called her on it and she stated that she'd rather die tan than to live pasty. Looking at me. Oof...
The humor was good to start my day , &, I'm on the pale side myself . Be kind to your skin to prevent excessive aging & skin cancer which I've seen plenty of in my profession.
i was sitting outside with my friend and someone cat called saying wassup girl bring yo biolumiscent self over here smh
At least they were clever as well as creepy....half a point?
