Don't diss a good tan man. I posted a pic of me after getting some sun when I was white as a sheet last summer and "pepto bismol" appeared in most replies. Take melanotan and did some sunbeds, none in past month since holidays, and I'm dark as fuck and look a lot better.
Nothing female about wanting to look better.
it's not being tanned what's feminine, but how you get the tan.
Is a person confident because he goes to solarium, or is a person confident because he doesn't go to solarium? Being outside, having barbecue or anything while enjoying the sun is fine, but when you lay on the ground just out of the sheer determination to get a tan is not for me anymore.
Tan is beautiful, there's a saying that "only a white man looks good hebrew"

, and I look much better tanned but... naawh!
In my gym you have to go through the training area and climb stairs to go in to the tanning bed area, and every time I can see how the people going there have this guilty look in their faces, and when they come out they are like "oh, hi, didn't even go to solarium, nope, I'm all good", that's lame. And they usually avoid any eye contact, they have this 1000 mile stare in their eyes between sets
