is it bad for your breast's to be exposed bare while in a tanning bed? or should you use something to protect them? how about tanning in a stand up bed? what should you use on your armpits so they dont burn?

No matter when you're exposed to the rays of the sun, you need to use a certain degree of protection to prevent harm to your skin. If you haven't gone naked before, your boobs, butt and genital area will need more protection than if you've been naked in the sun a few times before.
I go to the nude beach and everyone there uses at least some protection against the sun. WE tan slowly and after a few weeks have a great tan with no burning, but it takes time and common sense.
The same holds true for a tanning bed.
regardless of how you do it, an all-over tan without tan lines looks great...just be careful of how you do it.

I don't believe that it's bad to be fully exposed. I've done it before going on vacation. I am not prone to burn, but if you are, I would use one of the lotions that you can by at the salon that will encourage more of a tan, than a burn.
Despite the myth that "Tanning Beds Cause Cancer" ....so does the Sun!!! There are a lot of benefits from tanning beds as well...I think it's called Heliotherepy.

-I never wanted my **** exposed to the ultra-violet rays personally. I don't know that it's harmful but I can't say it would be safe either, being that area is so senitive. I always felt funny about my boobs getting tanned very much anyhow, mostly due to cancer.
Now as far as arm pits, use some light sunscreen to help. I personally don't like the fake tans -Country Girl myself. Beach -Lover. fake always looks well fake. kind of painted on yelowish. I personally feel the tanning beds are not safe either. but neither is the sun - so we can't win- tans always appear to makes us look healthier, but we all know better and still do it. I guess that's why they call it Sun-worshipping-it is addictive.sorry didn't mean to get into pros and cons of tanning. I still do it -even though I know it wrinkles us and ages us. But nothing better than relaxing on the beach to take all our cares away.or in a tanning booth if that's all you have, espcially in winter-feels good on the arthritis too.I'd keep my boobs in personally. Not tanned you can use them as flash-lights at night, when needed -you never know.

Everything about tanning beds is bad for all of your body. They cause skin cancer.

Well guys have it worse. Girls you only have to worry about burning your nipples. Guys can burn thier nipples and penises. There is nothing more painful than a sunburn on your penis. Especially when it gets hard and the skin has to streach
