Is it normal to be so pale, people ask if you are part vampire?

Tans get to be gross--unless they're totally natural, or acquired by accident (like on a vacation, unintentionally). But a white person who's obviously been "tanning"? F------ gross! It looks somehow vaguely dirty, and vain/insecure.

Suntans weren't considered attractive at all until early in the 20th century--they were actually embarassing, culturally: they suggested a person had to work outside all day, like a peon, or a peasant. Once even the very poor were working mostly indoors, though (like in factories), everything got switched: a suntan proved you had the money, the affluence to take vacations in the Riviera, etc. ...and ALL of this, the whole rationale of fashion, is all screwed up: the way people are so desperate to look like they have money (they usually don't really have), the way we want to look wealthy, spoiled.

Anyway, pale people are often freaking GORGEOUS--don't mind the idiots who bug you about it.

Lol, I'm pale too but I don't get people asking me if I'm a vamp...they're weird, not you.

I'm very white as well. I can't tan, I gave up on that a long time ago. I think the fake tan is gross! Embrace your beautiful porcelain skin!

I'd be so annoyed if I got asked that frequently... Probably start punching people. XD

Part vampire? As in a relative of yours was a vampire?
But vampire can't BREED! There are just mechanics in sex and reproduction that require both partners have blood (i.e. the erect penis and the baby being able to survive in the womb.) And as everyone knows, vampires don't have blood, that's why they need to drink it.

Heh! Edward Cullen can't get a hard on!

It's normal.
And I wouldn't tan in the sun because later on when you get older you get more wrinkles if your in the sun longer [as in tanning in the sun]
And on most people who don't sun-tan, when they're older they don't get wrinkles as much.
This information might've been off topic but, I hope it helped either way!

I'm a pale maxicana:) I use tanning oil cuz I HATE being called white when in pure Mexican!!

A lot of people ask me the same question! But I absolutely love my pale skin and wear sunblock EVERY day. I don't want my skin to age faster than me. Lol. But there are lotions with natural tanners in them that just bring out a natural glow and don't make you look orange or fake.

My best friend gets that all the time. It's so funny

haha. my friend is a very pale mexican so we call her the "albino mexican". (:

People tell me the same thing!

I'm super pale too and I've had one person ask me jokingly but I'd be cocerned for anyone who actually thought so.
