It's so hypocrtical. They are so quick to go to the tanning salon but look down on chocolate colored skin?

Sorry Dear, But When We Tan Its A Whole Different Color....It's Not Black And Not Even Brown....It's A Nice Warm Tan Color.....I've Never Seen Anyone Tan Nor Have I Tanned And Come Out Of It Looking Negrodian. If There Is Anyone White Skinned People Are Trying To Emulate It Would Be A TAN Hispanic Or Indian...In Other Words, Someone Exotic........Its More Of An Orange Hue But Evened Out With The White Skin.
Again, Its Not Black Nor Brown We Are Trying To Look, Its TAN.
This Is Not Meant To Offend But You Asked A Question And I Suspect You Expect An Honest Answer..............

I really don't know. They're just stupid.
I don't hate dark skin at all, but I still want to remain pale... Well, mainly because I look better with pale skin because of my hair, but still... I don't think it has to do with them liking or disliking any color... But, I think that if they want to get dark, even though they dislike dark skin, is something that a clueless person would do.
Like those people that are like Paris Hilton and Britney Spears.

I don't. I think being pale is one of the most beautiful things you can be. That's why I try not to stay in the sun for long periods of time.
Just because people go to the tanning bed doesn't mean they want to be "chocolate". I've never heard of someone going there for that.
Just my opinion.

Tan and black skin are two different things. If we go tanning (a little) to get SOME tan, it doesn't mean that we want to get really dark. We like the Latino shades of skin, not black shades.

I don't know. Will you must have a complex---you were just on the question talking about Yahoo bigots and now you say Whites don't focus on race as much as X does?! I think it's fair to say alot of people of different backgrounds focus on race. Including whites who come online everyday to sprout BS.

Now that's what I wanna know! Some of these white americans around here always be gettin up and goin to the tannin bed and then they be sittin there callin all blacks the n word and hatin on us thinkin that the white race is the best when no race is the best! Goin to the tannin bed is pretty much wantin to be black ! So it's either they should stop goin to the tannin bed or stop bein racist!

Maybe because they like the tanned skin. some people don't like being pale.

Some people are insecure, so they tan to feel better about themselves i think? or maybe they want to look good? gurl, not all people look down on dark skin, so be careful when you generalise..................
