What does Jow Forums think of tanning as a man? I'm pale and bald and while I think I'd look better with some color I'm worried it's unhealthy
What does Jow Forums think of tanning as a man...
I can tell you're new here because you think this thread will end well for you instead of turning into a race baiting shitfest.
i've been on Jow Forums maybe a year or two, I wasn't sure if this would get deleted for being off topic.
Generally speaking Jow Forums doesn't seem to racist. I'm also not talking about tanning myself into completely changing my skin color. I stay inside all the time and wonder if a little bit of a tan is beneficial.
>generally speaking Jow Forums doesn't seem to (be) racist
welp
Inject melanotan 2. The sun and tanning beds are bad for you and they wil also give you wrinkles.
Holy fuck that seems insane
tanning is a fad on it's way out. if you don't believe me do you see people taking tanning as seriously in 2019 as they did in the 2000's? wasting money for something nobody really cares about and potentially damaging your skin is retarded, if it makes you feel too bad just spend more time outside. anything more than that is stupid.
OP here
I was just debating on whether or not to put on some sunscreen and sit outside for 20 minutes maybe 1-2x
I'm having a hard time figuring out how vain I should be. I like lifting and want to get more muscular but being overly manicured and caring too much about looks seems awful too me.
If you're white then are just damaging your skin for vain reasons. Grow up.
You are*
why? no downsides if you do low doses, and it means you damage your skin less by being in the sun
I can't tan, I'm Black
Just be yourself bro
t. half black and can tan
Most people who die of cancer die of skin cancer
There are few better ways to guarantee skin cancer besides heavy bombardment with radiation in the ultraviolet spectrum
A tan does not reduce the amount of cellular damage you receive
Even black people are highly susceptible to skin cancer. Black Americans die of skin cancer at higher rates.
It is also an extremely painful type of cancer to have, generally.
Actually tanning with UV/sun is stupid. Major aging/sun damage/melanoma.
Just get a spray on if you need it.

Get 20 min, depending on skin type, a few days a week. Without sunscreen. Shirt off.
Or don’t, I don’t fucking care. Your skin will barely tan at that rate but you’ll get vitamin d. Also, some skin conditions are caused or worsened by low uva/b exposure.
But who fucking cares about the actual literature, we must have evolved to sit indoors and avoid the sun. That will probably work out.

That's a lie it's lung cancer, followed by colon cancer followed by breast. Skin cancer only kills roughly 15,000 a year max vs. shit like lung cancer which kills roughly 780,000 a year.
You are a moron spouting bullshit.
We're all mildly racist
That's definitely false like the other user said. And it's so treatable even at this point, so I wouldn't worry unless you never check your skin when you're older. I'm convinced we need a bit more sun than most of us are getting at this point
I might say though, take it easy on the face because the surgery there for skin cancer *might* cause noticeable scars in some cases.
Just go outside faggot
now i have a farmer tan user
Be outside in the sunfor a bit. Its good for the bones.
Do the opposite of tanning. Wear sunblock every time you go out. Cancer and cellular destruction due to radiation is way worse than being a little pale.
eat lots of carrots. seriously. look it up.
Literally makes you look like a homosexual
Tanning beds are for faggots. Laying in the sun is for faggots. Stop worrying about your image so much.
I've Heard harsh Sun is bad for your skin so I'd avoid that, but again upto you
