Suntanning, what's sexier?

[Tania Admin]

My husband (Naughty Thoughts) and I were just eating dinner and discussing the up and coming weekend. I was saying how I don't think I will get any tanning in because it looks like it may be cloudy.
And as I thought about my impending 2012 summer tan this posed a question and I asked NT his opinion on my tan lines. Very Important.
Does he want me to have bikini lines, g-string lines or no lines at all? His opinion is no lines
I think that the bikini line or g-string line looks sexy. What is your preference?

 

[mischief]

I love a g-string line...but that's just me

 

[Jazzmine]

Hahaha I tanned in granny panties once by mistake, NOT SEXY!! I prefer a g-string tan line xx

 

[Lilly Sweetheart]

Lately I have been opting for no spray tan. So I am enjoying my white skin.... For now!

I personally like an overall same colour coverage, so no tan lines.
I don't tan at all, hell I burn just walking to the letter box!

No tan lines is sexiest. But G-string lines are a good second. Tanned breast without tan-lines (gives an image of the beauty sun-tanning topless).

Well, if you listen to the good folks from the Cancer Council the safest tan is the allover "nuntan", ie pale and interesting, but that is hard to achieve in this climate. Personally, I have never had the time or inclination to bake myself on beaches regularly as I lack the necessary bovine temperament to tolerate prolonged inactivity.

However, if that is your thing just keep it mild, grease up (Damn, I hate that slimy stuff) and avoid the 11am - 3pm period when the u.v level is highest. If you are a big girl, or have big boobs they definitely look better evenly tanned. Smaller ones can use the emphasis of tanlines.

People need to have some exposure to natural sunlight. The vitamin D is imoprtant as is building up a natural resistance to the harsh sun. I used to burn, peel and go back to white. Over the last couple of years I have been tanning, a little each week, my skin has a healthy colour and I feel re-vitalised. Nature gave us the sun for a reason. Not to hide from it. 30+ is a good friend to have on side.

I agree with Tania. I express it slightly differently. We successfully evolved with a lot of exposure to the sun. Too little is bad for us (Vitamin D), and too much is bad for us. Interestingly, if you watch a David Attenborough program on animals on earth, he finishes with humans, and says that the Africans developed dark skin to protect against a of sun exposure and northern Europeans had white skin so as to absorb more sunlight in an area where there was much less sun. The problem arises when light skin colour people overexpose as their evolution is based on little sun.

Dunno why but i've always had a thing for the full bikini tan lines.
By full i mean milky white breasts with a distinct change to darker tanned body.
Maybe it could be that girls tanned like this obviously dont go topless or naked so I get turned on by seeing something that they dont show in public ?

An interesting point... If trying to develop a tan, going out in the sun for 10 minutes a day for a week isn't going to help and neither is lying in the sun for hours on end on the first day.

A gradual build up is required, otherwise you'll simply burn, and you've got to increase it from the 10 minutes you spend at first, otherwise you'll never make an impact.

The same goes for most body changes really - Weight loss, weight gain, strength/fitness training etc.

As for me - No lines is my preference, although in some situations tan lines can be incredibly appealing.

sexiness is in the eye of the beholder...*woof woof*...lol.

If you are a big girl, or have big boobs they definitely look better evenly tanned. Smaller ones can use the emphasis of tanlines.

I couldn't agree more, I have a smaller bust and with the bikini tan line the difference between white and brown actually accentuates my chest! I'm definitly FOR tan lines

 

[TheCock]

When I has naked girl infront of me I not think about tan lines! In Aus they want dark skin, in Asia they want light skin no one is ever happy

 

[Rochelle]

Tanned all over is probably the best look. But to be honest it would be rather hard for me to achieve. My arms and legs have been constantly exposed to the sun over years and they are now olive coloured all year round. My butt, belly and back haven't and they look rather super white. Grrrrrrrr to get the same olive tan on my white parts would be a lot of work/sun/time. Thinking about it.....I am not a beach babe and I am definitely not a sun bather (boring) so I do settle for my two shades of body tan and admire all the one tan people.

I love tan line of a nice thong on a woman but not on her breasts ... An all over tan is perfect as well ...

People need to have some exposure to natural sunlight. The vitamin D is imoprtant as is building up a natural resistance to the harsh sun.

In this latitude, about 15mins. per week exposure to the sun on hands and face skin only is considered to provide enough vitamin D for most people's needs. Whereas a "healthy"(?) tan can look sexy, the consequences of continued exposure to uv on the skin can be dire...not least melanoma etc but cosmetically. I've seen some pretty extreme examples of solar kearatoses- looks like the skin has cornflakes growing out of it not to mention the dried ,wrinkled appearance that even gallons of expensive wonder "forever young" skin lotions have failed to keep at bay.

When I first arrived here 20 years ago to Brisbane, I was amazed to see prematurely aged, otherwise attractive women with necks like turtles and hands like those of 80 year olds.

As Noel Coward remarked "Mad dogs and Englishmen go out....."

I think I prefer no tan lines especially when surfing although doesn't happen like this down at scarb...

Not much tanning weather left for this season, so lap it up while you can
