Boys - do you wear fake tan?

A guy in my work says he wears fake tan on his face cause he's pale, he's not a particularly feminine kinda guy really so I was surprised! When he told me another girl was there and she didn't seem surprised either. Am I the only one that thought this wasn't normal for the average straight male? Just wondered & not criticising anyone. I mean if girls can, why can't boys, eh? :p:

Owing to hair colour I have enough orange already, I don't need more.

Of course boys can wear fake tan, but it doesn't necessarily mean that they should. Imo, moderation is the key. It's just trashy to wear fake tan in the middle of winter. At least, it should look "naturally" :rolleyes:
Just, no. I need to get away from here.
Erm... can't say I ever have or ever will consider it.

Why wear fake tan? :s

No, don't know anyone either. Though I do know a guy who uses sunbeds, lotion and shave legs and chest so I guess that counts for something. He's not gay, 'apparently'.

LOL. That's nasty.

Did it for a fancy dress party, that then got rescheduled!
But was hilarious on both occasions :smile:

I wear fake tan but rarely, i don't really show off my body you see so you can say i can untanned areas. I do have a fit body just not really a show off. People love to show off, i aint one of them.

I don't but I sometimes go on the sunbeds.
I can't believe this idea would actually cross any guys mind.
It's bad enough on girls.

I have all my tan left from a month in Turkey last summer. I'm good for a few months yet i think :biggrin:

That's enough homophobia guys.

No. I'd be more embarrassed wearing fake tan than being pale, which I am.

I'd happily wear fake tan, I'm really pale already so it'd just mean I'd be brighter instead of a ghost
