    good morning guess who found a new beauty standard to talk about! skin tone has always been a big topic of discussion in every culture. social media, TikTok, and seeing pictures of beautiful celebrities online every day have really warped society's expectations of how people should look. If you live in Asia, having a pale, clear, and bright complexion is what people aim for, while western beauty is obsessed with having a glowing tan all year round. today we'll talk about tanning, and how your skin can affect the quality of your life - might as well throw in a tv show I recently watched.

    As an Indian , I just want to share that tanning is like the biggest crime here... Dark skinned people are always treated differently... Even in the lyrics of the songs , Girls with White skin are shown superior... I have a wheatish skin , Not so white .... But My parents still point out that I'm getting darker everyday... But you know what? Neither your appearance,Nor you colour makes you superior... It's your soul , Not your body which has to be beautiful...

I mean all the people working under the sun in my country (aka farmers, construction workers) or even just playing outside etc. Guess what if you live near the equator, you don't get a choice if you tan or not, that's my point.

    Western people wanting to tan as a beauty standard has nothing to do with naturally being more pale or stuff like that. The beauty standard used to be pale for the same reason as in Asia. Rich people could stay inside, peasants had to work outside. The only reason it changed is Coco Chanel accidentally getting a tan on a cruise, making the tan associated with being able to travel to far away sunny destinations. And this was somewhere in the mid 1920s so it's not even that long ago that it changed 🙃.

    I found tanning such a weird thing to do because it damages your skin and the consequences aren't worthy. I live in the Caribbean, I have dark skin but I was taught since I was young to stay out of the harsh sun, use an umbrella to protect from the when I'm outside, and wear sunscreen because it'll help prevent skin disease, breakouts, wrinkles, and I will look better when I'm past my 50's because I took care of it since I was young. But this people willingly go into tanning chambers to cook themselves and/ or sit in the harsh sun (with coconut oil???) To fry.
    If you spend xxx amount of time somewhere with a sun stronger than the one you're used to and get a bit darker, it's a natural process. It happens even to me when I go to the beach or hiking. But to purposely go to a place and pay money to get darker and darker and damaged skin? Weird af

      Different things signal wealth in different areas. In areas without much sunlight and with greater industrialization, having a tan while still being identifiable as white signals wealth.
      As another example, having a clean car usually indicates that you are rich, but in some US cities having a car covered in dirt indicates that you have leisure time or own a $2 million house.

    As a dark skin (in Asian standard, I have the tan white people try to get or maybe a bit darker) south Asian I always hated the idea of tanning. How are you trying to get the skin tone I'm ridiculed for? You can't say "I tan in the sun" when the tan is multiple shades darker than you. I've just always found it uncomfortable. Some of the comments I get are "your skin is such a yummy caramel", "I want your skin", "your skin is so exotic, like you just came from holiday " etc. No man, I'm Asian...
    A white person with my skin is seen as beautiful but me, with my ethnic features, am seen as less attractive for having my skin.
    Moral of the story: don't fetishize people's skin tone and try to wear it.
    Edit: so many brained replies from colourist/racist people who prove point. Also before you leave a reply looking like a dumb ass think about how different society treats darker skinned people and look up the affects of colourism. Some of you are really exposing you poor comprehension skills as well as your blatant ignorance and hate.before you even hit that reply button. Look up how colourism works and the effect it has. It's not people thinking I'm rich because I'm brown. Some of you need to check your privilege and not exclusively see things from a light skin/white (or whitewashed) perspective.

      I used to get quite tan because I did sports as a kid and my friends would always complain how they’re paler than me. This was in an Australian 99.9% white school. Everyone was always jealous of whoever was the most tanned, and people were envious of the few people of different ethnicities that had naturally tan skin. It’s simply a difference from where you come from. After school I became more shut in and was influenced a lot by Asian media so I never wanted to go in the sun so I could stay pale. Now whenever I get the slightest tan my brain says I look gross because it doesn’t line up with pasty idol images that are put out. Everyone has troubles with skin colour. It’s more a problem with peoples perception of wealth because that is ultimately what drives these prejudices. Aussies want to be tan because they look rich. Asians want to pale so they look rich. It’s sad.

      It comes to a point where you just have to live your life I think. After avoiding the sun my whole life, I’ve discovered within the last two years that I love tanning. Specifically, the feeling of basking in the sun. I’d prefer to enjoy these small joys, especially as you say, it wouldn’t be surprising if a diagnosis came up soon anyway. Time is precious 🌷

I had a pre cancerous tumour removed from my face, no big deal but its a warning; my dad had a skin cancer on his back.

      ASK YOURSELF why would England have a black queen? and she Charlotte is born into a GERMAN royal family of Mecklenburg-Strelitz.
      (spoiler alert) parents black too.
      This is why the House of Habsburg is one of the longest reigned houses From 1438 to 1806. it was the beginning of white rule in Europe. They inbred to keep it white.
      The Romans and the Moors into europe was to gate-keep - the original order and power of the natives. and to HOLDBACK whites from mass immigrating into Europe.
      read your history. I did not invent white-washed. you should it up . they painted over all the painting lighter to indicated royal was white.
      Swarthy Europeans and Native American and Native Australian = same faith. and the land looks like the look now ; for that same reason.
      DNA is a funny thing: maybe those people missed being themselves. so its not a tanning culture its a 'return to self'
      you give that right to gay people of being TRUE to who they are. extended to those who tan. afterall its their BIRTH RIGHT.

    I love that you covered this topic. I guess its not as simple as Black and White (ba-dum-psh!). It's true, we also assimilate to the environment we're in so if we perceive a certain trait as being beautiful, we would attempt whatever means to obtain that beauty. It's just that sometimes individuals go too far and alter their image to appear like an alien rather than a human being. It's kind of sad because most people are already very naturally pretty prior to botching their face, skin, or body. Learn to love the skin and body you're in, right?

As soon as they’re treated like the average POC who experiences shit on a daily basis, suddenly the exoticism wears off REAL quick. But unlike POCs, they can stop tanning while POCs wear their ethnicity every damn day. At the end of the day, they go to bed with white privileged and wake up with white privilege.

Why? You don't like the sun?". A friend compared me and another girl of the same age that gets a lot of compliments for her tan but she doesn't use SPF, stays under the sun rays at midday for hours, and the result is that she is already covered in fine lines and spots at 30 while I don't have any yet. I just hope she doesn't have problems in 10 years or so because of possible melanoma. Please use SPF!

    On the one hand, I understand the temptation because I'm as pale as a human can possibly be. They don't even have makeup shades for my skin tone (not that it's any easier for darker sinned people) And pale skin can be kind of ugly because if you have ANY flaws (pimples, veins, redness, large pores) it's extremely obvious and a tan will help disguise that. Plus melanated skin is just PRETTY. But it's super weird to take it this far and appropriate POC. Even if you don't understand why it hurts other people, it's not that big of a sacrifice to just put the melanotan down and care about people's feelings.

No matter how much sunscreen I put on, I'm still going to tan many shades darker. You don't know everyone's story so don't assume. Also, I find that this goes hand in hand with other POC and white people telling multiracial people that they are not their heritage because they look a certain way. It's so annoying and literally not helping anyone.

    I'm half Lakota and half Scottish, so I naturally tan to a very dark "honey" tone especially during summer, but I'm also quite porcelain skinned if I stay out of the sun. I always get comments on my "lovely" tan but it's literally never mattered to me. I'm just as happy when I'm tan as I am when I'm porcelain skinned. 🤷🏼‍♀️ Only complaint is changing foundation matches. 😂

Hell is real, repent from sinning confess your sins and ask God to forgive you, I know He will if you’re sincere. Anyone who thinks the Name of Lord Jesus Christ is a joke, boldly mocks and scorns Him or takes pleasure in people who do is in for a big unpleasant surprise on judgement day IF they don’t repent and follow Lord Jesus Christ. Hell is very hot, people please repent! In the mighty name of Lord Jesus Christ, Amen 🙏💪✝️💜❤️✝️!

      So, it’s time to confess that Lord Jesus Christ is the Lord and to believe that He died and rose from the grave after three days and you shall be saved if you only obey Him by praying, worshipping, praising, reading the Bible and living holy and righteously according to the Bible.

    Here in Mexico we have the white-xicans and the rest of darker skinned mexican people, I've experienced/observed a preference for lighter skin complexions in both. Even among the dark skinned mexicans they feel superior to someone who is one shade darker than them. I was bullied for being dark- skinned all throught childhood only to find out I'm light skinned with a tan from vacationing on the coast (I tan super fast n easy), as the tan faded I was treated better which sucks. Moving out to a different part of the country made me realize that that mindset is found more in places where the white-xicans and darker skinned mexicans live more separately (there's a whole socio-economic aspect to this white/darker skinned mexicans thing). And don't even get me started on how the "indígenas" are treated...

    It just makes me mad that they can get praised for altering their body to look like mine, but since I’m born with it I get hate.
    They can take it off whenever they want. They don’t have to suffer like we do. They get to pursue this look without any fear of going through long term discrimination or hate, but me? Followed in stores, treated with distain, picked on for the same skin that they’re trying to achieve.
    Hair too. Our cultural styles are worn by white people for mo other reason than “I can do it too! You can’t keep me from doing what you do!” How much more must be taken? How much more do others need to have? Just how much “understanding” must we have? Why can’t people see how privileged they are to snap their fingers and be back in the world’s good graces?
    I don’t find their imitation flattering. It doesn’t make me like my skin more. It just makes me sad. The little girl in me who cried day in and day out for being born dark skinned, with black eyes, and 4c hair writhes in pain because people treat how she looks like a trend.
    I don’t know. Like I get the whole beauty standards differ everywhere thing, but what this world has in common nearly everywhere is- a hate for dark skinned people.
    Surely these people know how people born with the looks they are trying to get are treated. Yet, they still find it okay to put the costume on. Doesn’t sit right with me. Feels like a slap in the face. Especially because it’s for something as shallow as aesthetics. Makes me sick.

    This is honestly so crazy to me because, even though they claim to do it as a way to show appreciation for darker toned people, it just comes off as them trying to mock us. It like modern day blackface, but instead of just the face they added in the body too😭😭 As a dark skin/ brown skin black girl, it hurts to see the first girl feel actually put her privilege aside for tan skin. Like, miss girl what?? I had to deal with colorism within my own family and that transitioned to me having internalized colorism, so much to the point where I said things like “I don’t want to get any darker”. I’m ashamed to say that I used to say that, but I was just a naïve kid that was regurgitating what my family said to me. The colorism thing then transitioned into texturism, because I used to truly believe that biracial girls with loose curl patterns were always seen as more attractive than dark skin girls with coils like myself. Several years later, I’ve grown and learned to love my skin, my hair, and everything that makes me beautiful. I love being black and although it’s a struggle, I wouldn’t change it for the world. It took a lot of relearning to do within myself, but I eventually got there all by myself and I’m proud of that!! Also, when I was younger, I didn’t like my hair because I was always told that it was “nappy”, “hard to manage”, “ghetto”, etc. My mother, older sister, and paternal grandmother were the only women that I had known that had perms, which my mother and father NEVER let me get, and I’m glad😭😭

Everything on American TV told me I needed to darken my skin. I eventually caved and darkened my skin. I couldn't handle the pressure, the constant taunts. Then, I grew up and stopped making myself darker. Now, I work as a model and my fair skin is my niche. It makes me special, because among "white" girls almost none of them are actually white! They've made themselves look orange or brown. So, to all my young fair-skinned white girls, don't let other people (usually white people) make you feel bad about yourself. Your skin is absolutely beautiful! You may not realize it now, but you will later.

    This problem is also HUGE in the cosplay community. There's a lot of people darkening their skin for cosplay...literally wearing it as a costume...and their ''excuse'' is ''I just love the character I want to be accurate''. No. Please don't. Someones skin colour and/or culture is not a costume.

    Personally I have nothing against tanning but in many cases it does look really bad, especially when natural blonde girls try to get a darker skin tone a lot of times it looks very cheap and tacky. I'm blonde myself, and I know I would look awful cuz people with blonde hair have a naturally paler skin tone. It's also annoying how people and especially my family try to persuade me to tan because when you're pale you look "sick" or like a "ghost." Like.. just leave me alone lol

    I have a very fair skin even in summer. And throughout my life I went through different stages: when I was a child I was told by old people “you have to eat more to have blushes, otherwise you look sick”, when I was a teen and it was all about tanning it was “you’re too pale, being bronze is cool and you look sick”, and now there is Korean fashion and “what have you done to your skin, your skin is perfect”
    So my “you have to” way is: be a pig😂 - be a chocolate - finally it’s ok to be yourself (just so far😈)

    It's interesting because for Europeans white skin used to be very desired because royals were indoors all day and had EXTREMELY white skin while regular people were outside a lot and got tan. So people would wear white powder makeup to make themselves look more wealthy/attractive. It's the opposite now because most average people work inside all day and don't get a lot of sun.. and rich people are able to tan whether it's in the sun or in tanning beds.

    As a coffee with milk colored person I've always been both more tan that surrounding kids but also tanned darker than them. In summer they'd put their arms against mine in school to see how close they got, closest was the one who won. But pale was also not bad as everyone was that way in winter. So I have no issues with my skintone. Though now I'm older my face gets blotchy so it's now covered in factor 50 to keep that under control if I'm going in the sun.

      @@taylorreynolds3176 I used to spend a few hours tanning and it would make my skin look less flawed but now it does the opposite with blotches and freckles. Brown freckles on brown skin does not look good.
      I tan extremely fast so those few hours would get me full of tanlines, I do not like sun and I do not like heat so I only did it for that effect. I only do sunscreen on my face now. When you are already any type of brown I'm not worried about too much sun damage. Not with how little sun I see.
      Do have to take my vitamins though, there is no other way I get enough vitamin d.

People here never appreciate their melanin. But now In America or European countries, they actually are the opposite of us. They would kill for a tan. And as a North African living in Britain, every high school girl tans. Literally every. It’s so crazy to see how different beauty standards are across the world. Because from where I’m from tanned or dark skin = ugly but in European counties it is said to be exotic or beautiful to have tanned skin
