How comes girls love to have fake sun tans in the summer or winter for a quickie 5 min orange tan? How comes its always girls that get the tans but not guys? Why dont guys have fake tans?
Girls do you like having fake tans? why do you do it? do you like to pretend you went away? is it bad for your skin?
Does your lover get fake sun tans? do you like going for a quickie 5 min tan at 10p a min? do you say anything about your lovers tan? Do you get a tan to Coo?
Do you wish you could get a real tan now?

*slap* - OP your habit of listing lots of questions is annoying to read.

Men do get tans and generally people look better with a bit of colour - this is why they do it.

Is it a sin for girls to attempt to make themselves look pretty?

I suppose the girls who use fake tan are reducing the risk of premature ageing and skin cancer that can be an issue when using sunbeds. It's a personal preference, but I think a light tan enhances a girls looks.

Reading books, eating well and exercise is a better bet

Because at the moment fashion says that a tan, real or fake, looks best. These things go in circles though so I'm sure that will change.

This may not have occurred to you, being the fundamentalist Christian that you are, but it's quite possible to do all of those admirable things, and also apply fake tan, make up, beauty products etc. I'm assuming a lot of older people have a stereotypical image of the type of girls who use such products, but I've known and know plenty of successful and intelligent girls who are not adverse to a splash of fake tan on certain occasions.

I agree with that. I like being pale rather than orange.

It's preferable to using tanning beds but OMG it looks frightful.

Girls always overdo it and end up orange. Then they stick to wearing their usual make-up and that doesn't go with the orange.

Everyone has their opinion on how they look with fake tan. But you have to remember, although it may look 'frightful' to you and your peers, and 'sinful' to Christian fundies such as 'The Tornado', it isn't you that they are trying to impress. I'm of a younger age (I'm assuming you're of an older generation solely from your use of the word 'frightful'), and can appreciate the effort they make.

I'm sure when I'm old and gray, I'll find countless faults with the currently unborn generation that will follow.

I think they look gross and laughable, almost like cartoon characters especially when they combine it with the witch white hair. This is why I moved away from Liverpool. Oh and it is also the skin cancer capital of the UK.

I think it looks a bit weird and quite funny.
My friend tried fake tan once and it turned out orange, she was greeted at school with comments of 'You've been Tangoed'

Everyone has their opinions and tastes, which there is no point debating if fake tan looks good or not, because it's simply a matter of personal preference. I can equally say that I find girls with carrot hair, pasty skin and freckles, fairly unattractive, but wouldn't expect that to carry any weight in an argument, as it's my own opinion.

I couldn't help notice that you mentioned the only reason you moved away from Liverpool, was because scouse girls are more inclined to use sunbeds or tanning shops more than wherever it is you originally hail from. If that is true, mate you seriously to get your priorities sorted, or at least get out more. I would suggest, careers and partners should be the dominant factors when deciding to move city.

Well I use to fake tan myself (not too ott), but I now find the whole 'you've been tangoed" boring and stereotypical. So to be different I dyed my hair red (from blonde) and kept my skin fair, and i like it much better Plus I don't really go in the sun either, I want to keep my skin young, plus there is a history of skin cancer in my family, so I'm not going to be something I'm not by frying myself.
But each to their own, it's just what I'm happiest with.
