Is it normal to think pale skin looks repulsive?

I think pale skin looks like death. It looks gross, and usually it's spotted with ugly freckles.

      Is this ItDuz? I know you're a peculiar person, but you've been acting extremely strange recently, more so than usual. It doesn't seem like you.

      • You actually just made me notice that I am doing that. Good sign for people, it means that I am starting to be less myself and more someone they would like to be around, and I only do that when I lack respect to the enviroment I'm in to express my true opinion.

          Out of everyone on the site, I've had the most arguments with you, by a lot. So you probably think I dislike you. I really don't, what I dislike is this. It's not the you we know (and love:P) and I really preferred the old version. I love your humour, but this behaviour is very strange to me.

          I hope this makes you feel more comfortable about being yourself, because after all the arguments we had I should probably want you to change, but I don't.

          Yes but you should have to change yourself for others. Unless you don't care but I know you; you wouldn't want to.

    My Mom and my aunt are both in their mid-forties and only about one year apart. My aunt has tanned consistently since she was about 20, and my Mom never (purposefully) tanned in her life.

    My Mother is pale, Irish, with dark brown hair and green eyes and my Aunt is tanned with dyed blonde hair and brown eyes. My Mom could pass as a decade younger and my aunt only wishes that she looked her age.

    Tanning makes you look great in the short run, but considering that I have seen the way the genes play out in my family, I think I'll keep my pale skin and the extra decade of youth on my face, thanks.

  • I think pale skin is beautiful, and I'm not keen on darker or tan skin, so to each their own. But don't be so mean about it. Some people are really beautiful with pale skin, and not everyone has freckles with pale skin.... and even so, freckles are beautiful too. :)

    No It's Not Normal. I think your a looks obsessed freak who is probably constantly tanning. Your probably tan, and think that anyone who doesn't look like you is ugly, because your probably narcissistic.

    I'm pale and I wish I had freckles. I had the very, very faintest ones as a kid in high summer, but I think they fell off.

    Whatever you think, nothing looks worse than an overdone fake tan where the person is the colour of oak.

      They fell off! Glue them back on! lolz

      Seriously though, I have no freckles until about half way through the summer they start to develop on my skin from the sun. Not a lot of outdoor activity for dappled?

        Nah, I burn badly even in our weak attempt at sunshine. Twenty minutes in the sun is as much as I can take. I should turn into a vampire. :D

          Lolz just don't be a sparkly one!

          I only burn once a summer, and after that it is fine, although oddly my skin stays pretty average rather than getting dark. If I get a ton of sun, freckles will start to spread across the face and shoulders, although they are rather large, and spaced out. Also, my beard is red while my hair is brown. Talk about your odd pigmentation!

            Maybe you've got the same heritage as me. I always think there's a bit of Viking in me because bits of my stubble go red, and some above my top lip actually goes blonde, but my hair is dark brown. I'm like some kind of tricolour cat. Which is ironic, because I used to be one of those. ;)

    There's really nothing else to say to this. You have your preference; others have theirs. And so the world turns round and round.

    Except not. Because it's my skin. And I can't change it. Unless I feel like getting skin cancer. Sooo. I kind of hope this post was a troll.

    I find pale skin beautiful, much more than artificially tanned skin. The most beautiful girl I had ever seen was extremely pale with red hair and freckles. I thought she was amazing looking.

    I'm sorry... So people can't be tan. I'm unable to get tan because of my skin tone and how fair it is. You can deal with it cause your a little stuck up... Dontcha think?

          I know you didn't mean it like that. Like me, you probably live in a society where whiteness is thought of as the default. I pointed that out not because I think you're racist, but because things like that can perpetuate that sort of thinking, even when you don't mean for them to.

    Try getting a tan. A real tan! Don't overdo it though. If you're still pale and can't get tan, enjoy the skin you're in. I'm tan and went through a phase where I wanted to be black. Now I take damithol and think "damn it all! I'm me". Now I'm proud to be tan and like I'm Hi-C! Life's got you down? Try damithol!
