Why Do People Find Tan Skin So Attractive?

Its because a tanned skin looks more healthy and also you look thinner with a tan. Fat brown skin looks so much better than fat white skin. It gives the illusion of a slimmer body and also hides any blemishes you may have

People think tan is attractive because everywhere you look ( magazines , T.V. Etc. ) The people in it are tan, so if you see a bunch of celebs that are tan you think tan is attractive.

I am very pale as well and have to be honest my fiance likes what natural tan I get in the summer, but he hates fake and bake and the spray on/lotions....not to mention he says they look like old wrinkled leather. Just be yourself, most guys where I live don't find the overly dark chicks hot anymore. 

I'm a naturally tanned person! I was born with it and I'm proud of it! My friends bug me a lot asking me how lucky you are because I'm tan! Ive been looking this up and apparently being "tanned" gives you a glow and lively. Its stupid! Be proud what skin you have! BE LOUD AND PROUD! I get my tan skin from my mum because shes filipina with some spanish and my dad australian this is my you tube channel and theres a pic of me: Http://www.youtube.com/user/Greentoolify?feature=mhw5 its funny how people try to guess my nationality. The most common nationalities that ive been called are: Hawaiian, spanish, kiwi and the weirdest native american! I mean c'mon do I look native american! XD

I too have really pale skin my nick name to all my friends is vampire mainly because I hate the sun light because I think I am going to tan or burn I love pale skin but why does all of my peers appreciate celebrity tan contribution?

I would hope that people love it. I'm a naturally tan person. I want to feel attractive

I think because the colors they wear show up well

Don't know. Guess it just sorta glows...

Self Confidence issues. Be yourself.
