Male Tanning

  1. So I'm a 19 year old male. I go tanning and all of my friends make jokes and say that I'm gay because of it. What is the opinions of other blades on this topic? Is it gay for a man to tan or not?
     
  2. Personally I don't use tanning beds and I probably never will even though I am pretty white. I don't think it is "gay" though, I even had friends call me gay because I style my hair almost every day.
     
    It seems that people will do their best to bash you if you look good.  :laughing: 
     
  3. I wouldnt call it "gay"....but IMO I think its a lil weird for a dude to be doin it. Then again, I dont even like it when girls do it....that fake orange tan looks nasty.
     
    Go for the natural tan if you can!
     
  4. It's...it's pretty gay.
     
  5. Don't know why I even feel inclined to respond to your thread, thought it might have had something to do with male cannabis tanning, perhaps a technique inhad never heard of lol. But you asked, so ya, I'd spend my money on other things... but thats yor deal, male tanning if youre not gay- is kinda gay.
     
  6. no reason for any straight man to get a fake tan unless they are in a movie or a model or something..
     
  7. It's just that I'm used to being tan and don't get tan anymore since I work inside all day. As far as spending money on it it is free at the gym that I go to so why not use it? You don't get orange from using tanning beds you get orange from spray tans. I however am suffering from the use right now I have sun burn EVERYWHERE on my body an I mean everywhere:( it hurts to do anything including sit

    Tanning has nothing to do with your sexuality. I wouldn't do it, personally. Usually stay fairly tan from being outside (and my mom's Mexican, that may help a little :p), but if not, I'm cool with being pale. But do what makes you happy, life's too short to worry too much about others perceptions of you.
     
     Just be careful about it, don't do it for too long or too often. Sunburn, skin cancer risk, premature aging, etc. As far as it being feminine, yeah, a little, but I've heard of (straight) men doing things more feminine. I have a friend who gets pedicures :laughing:
     
  9. It's pretty gay bro lol. 
     
  10. i wouldnt calll it gay but...come on man...
     
  11.  
    Go get a job mowing lawns in the sunshine. I have a bad ass tan from working in my garden with my WOMAN.
     
  12. Personally I think it's quite metrosexual.  I would never do it. I'm not into appearances that much. I would personally rather just do outdoor activities if I wanted a tan.
     
  13. It is very feminine, lets just put it that way. :hide:
     
  14. I think its pretty gay
     
  15. Yup gay. Pretty sure even gays think it's gay...;)

  16. I would not know if its GAY or not, I do not consider myself an authority on homosexuals.
     
  17. It might not be gay, but it definitely calls for gay jokes..... you gotta admit.
     
  18. It's called metrosexual.
     
  19. I don't think going to tanning places is alright but tanning out in the sun is.
     
    I'm ready for manning season.
     
  20. I do full year cooking right now but I'm trying to get hired through the attra program doing organic farming so if I can do that I'll be tan as shit. Doing that though you get tan lines and tan lines don look fresh
