Whatever's natural.

So long as the pale girl isn't all see-through and veiny. D:

Pale, every time.


do people not realise that your sig is photoshopped? :P

also and yeah, i liked a tanned guy, usually, though it depends on their face/body really as to whether they look better tanned or pale. my guy is in between XD

People prefer pale to tanned :lolwut: ?

Do you mean Tan White, as in the natural skin colour (like those born in Italy for example), or do you mean people who get Fake Tan, or people who have skin that tans in the sun?

Either way, natural is best and anything fake is not. Plus, I'm not keen on tans since they either indicate being fake, or not protecting themselves in the sun - if they have a naturally glowing tan then that's fine.

Pale skin colour is fine, but I'd like a healthy flush (scientifically a rosy/yellow face is what men tend to be more attracted to since it means there's lots of blood in the face and the woman could be ovulating, in other words looking healthy).

Why would anyone prefer someone who is pale and pasty? :confused:

It looks unhealthy and unnatural, unless for some reason you stay indoors all day, or your dad is Josef Fritzl.

Girls who are so pale you can see green veins popping out are vomit inducing, it's unattractive and unpleasant.
They should get out some more and get some vitamin E.

Tanned skin at least looks healthy.

Lol. Sorry I explained it incorrectly. I don't mind pale or tan, the tan can be fake or real. As long as it isn't too orange.

This girl is hot, would love to go down on her :colondollar:

I agree with tanned skin looking healthy, so long as people don't go to extremes when it comes to tanning!

But slating very pale skin is a little harsh, some people can't help how fair their skin is and since they burn easily, I don't blame them for not wanting to peel their skin off liike a snake in the sun and get cancer. Fake tan also tends to look VERY fake on extremely fair skin too so again, little stuck for options! I think porcelain white skin is absolutely lovely!:tongue:

I'm half italian so thanks to my mum I could tan quite easy if I tried but I prefer to stay out of the sun :rolleyes:

What do you prefer on a girl?
And, girls can answer too. :smile:


the victorians were right, pale is best - women should still use parasols!
a tan is a sign of low birth: a country girl working in the fields.
....
the idea in the 70s of the healthy tan goes against truth.
and the orangey tan of liverpudlians is flipping ridiculous.

why do people think a tan looks healthy. the healthiest colour for your skin to be is the colour you were born with sitting in the sun until it changes colour is NOT healthy

That's if they are too skinny and it has nothing to do with being pale.

Glad to see pale is winning :awesome: A natural tan can look lovely but orange is :puke:

Reply 33

Also out of interest, when people are saying they don't like veins - do they mean on the hands, wrists, face...? Or just all over?

Reply 34

Anything but orange/any other fake tan colour.

Pale :colone:

You missed the oompa loompa option.

Reply 37

Tanned. Olive or very light brown skin looks best.

Pale skin = yuk

LOL @ the pasty nerds on this forum voting for their own skin tone. :teehee:

Let's face it... there is a reason why most hollywood actresses, famous musicians, popular girls in general society etc. have tans. It's because looking like a ghost is not a good look.

Reply 38

I don't mind either.
Just not too much tan. Keep it subtle :wink:

Reply 39

It depends on the girl, but any skin tone can look good. Though fake tan is revolting, natural is ALWAYS better imo. Ever slept with a girl with a ****load of fake tan ? I have, bitch owes me new bedsheets. :tongue:
