Whatever you do, don't go the Michael Jackson route. By the way, love you for you.
If you're really wanting to lighten, try staying out of the sun.

You can not change the color of your body.
that is melanin inside your skin.
It can be removed only with skin bleaches.
But only for some spots.
Not whole body.
my advise- protect from sun to prevent dark color in future.
Slowly your skin may become fairer.
good luck.
Bleaching
What about bleaching of the skin discoloration? Here we have to address two concerns:
* Stopping formation of new melanocytes at the pigmented spot
* Removing the existing color on the pigmented spot.
Scientists have found that an enzyme called tyrosinase activates the production of melanin. This enzyme activity must be stopped on the discolored spot so that more melanin is not formed there. The common bleaching agents that help to stop formation of new melanin, are discussed below.
Currently the US FDA recognizes only hydroquinone as a bleaching agent. Other ingredients used in bleaching creams are called brighteners, lighteners, etc. Some of the common ingredients that can be used to stop further melanin getting produced are hydroquinone, kojic acid, and azelaic acid. Research is being conducted on many other molecules and some of them are getting incorporated in bleaching formulations.
The second problem, as we said is to remove the existing excess melanin. This is done by exfoliating the skin and bringing fresh skin in its place. For that AHAs and tretinoin are commonly used.
You should consult your doctor and use a formulation that will not only remove the existing color, but also stop further color getting added. There are many formulations available and your doctor is the best person to address this. Take care that you don't use any product that irritates your skin and also avoid application on normal skin.

Why would you want to become fairer (for a guy)? Don't you think dark skin men look more macho?
