Had a date with a gal, in her late 30s early 40s can’t recall. Marathon runner, nut. Really healthy and fit, but she would tan everyday esp her face. She was as dark as an Indian.
I told her that she could use fake tanning lotions and look the same. I got her to back off where she would tan once per week...
Some people are addicted to this, and in fact will tan twice per day and different places.
It’s another addiction of sorts, or better said to be an obsession.
People who work out and exercise regularly often like to tan because it shows off the body’s lines and muscularity better. That’s why bodybuilders literally spray paint themselves dark brown before they go on stage.
Betcha her skin was as soft as rawhide.
True story.
Work buddy and I were going out for drinks after work.
His wife was to meet us at the bar when she got off work.
We stopped at their place so he could change.
I noticed their wedding pics on the mantel.
So dark I assumed she was Indian (dot, not feathers).
With her being Indian I hoped we could talk about something other that her husband’s work.
When she finally showed up at the bar I was so in shock that
she was actually white the only thing I could say was, “gee, you lost your tan.”
We still joke about this.
No I'm not.
