And would you rather have white skin or tanned skin?

You always want what you don't have.
I don't really mind what color my skin is.

It goes with the cliched saying that says "the grass is greener on the other side of the fence" and "we all want what we can't have." In America, the belief is that tanned skin gives you a healthy glow and makes you look thinner. People also believe that darker skin can hide imperfections. As for Asia (especially India), pale skin is a sign of social status and belonging in a higher caste system (because you worked indoors and don't have to be outside doing manual work). It is a leftover from the colonial days.

We all want to look our best..in our society, a tan usually makes you look younger and healthier(unless you do a lot of sunbathing like i did with baby oil! and now at 54 have tons of sunspots!..truly unattractive.
Asians, want to look less Asian..it probably has a fair amount to do with tv! Most countries like watching holllywood, etc. and they see on the screen what they think is the best..so that means lightening their skin.
So, it's superficial vanity, and probablyo not very healthy! Funny how most of us are so critical of our beautiful, natural, God given bodies! LOL. I would rather look tanned, but i don't want more skin damage, so i may use a bronzer or something, but don't tan...which reminds me...i must buy that spf stuff before the summer's over!

People view those who have what they do not as lucky. Because of this, people in America want golden brown skin and tan all the time. Those in Asia, with full access to the sun, seek light, glowing skin and avoid the sun. It is a simple case of wanting what another has. No one is ever happy how they are. I don't mind either, as long as it's cancer free

I'm Filipino, Irish, and Chinese. I'm naturally white complected.
I'm currently tanned though, because I go to the beach often.
But my skin color doesn't really matter, either way I still look good. lol.
And people tend to want what they do not have,
Human nature I guess.

the grass is not always greener on the other side. this is just a coincidence.
For example, how come more blue/green color contacts are sold than brown? it's usually brown-eyed people who wish for a different color.
