    For the love of Jeff:rolleyes:

    Personally, I hate the stuff. I can't think of one good reason for a girl to wear fake tan but if you want to look like a muppet, that's your perogative. Just as it's the perogative of gothlings to pale their skin and wear nothing but black. Ye look as stupid as each other but then, who's to say that you don't think I look stupid in a pair of jeans and a t-shirt?

    Different strokes etc.

    And please girls, can we have less of the "you go girl" nonsense?

    And anyone who says different is a soothsayer.

    Sooth sooth sooth sooth sooth....

    sleepy... your all missing ravenheads point, hence the arguments.. she agrees with ye on the score of don't slap on orange tan, don't try to overdose yourself in tan when your colouring doesn't suit.. she and myself, were only pointing out that if it is put on properly then it does suit some people, esp, dark haired, dark skinned people.. i would put it on sometimes depending on the clothes i'm wearing and noone notices it even.. and believe me, i have friends who would love to slag ya so it would be said..

    Are you gals *still* harping on about this?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,420 ✭✭✭Doodee


    Syke, leave em too it.
    When will *cute* women realise that writing or talking to people about stuff doesn't work, and the only way to resolve issues is in a paddling pool with your skimpiest bikini and lots of lotion.

    *sigh*
    some day i hope

    that wasnt a dig at you seraphina, i was referring to this response made to your comment about how ridiculous the whole thing was and how it píssed you off.

I mean like I know being female there's no way I could be interested in my appearence and be taken seriously! Firstly my little brain couldn't handle the pressure of doing two things at once for a start. And you know men probably won't take me serious if I wear fake tan or makeup and try to look well.


    and no we're not still harping on about it.......i just thought it was funny.

    god. its pretty clear that if women were a seperate race, they would probably have wiped themselves out long ago.

    While in Liffey Valley on sunday to see Kill Bill 2 i happened to walk past a woman and her boyfriend. as i passed the couple the woman turned to her partner and uttered, "What did they do before fake tan?" This woman is clearly operating on a higher plane than the rest of humanity so i salute you, Fake Tan Girl, where ever you are.

    Women could still pull easily enough before fake tan became popular, why not now?

    I think a few skin blemishes are sexy.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 24,269 ✭✭✭✭Sleepy


    Whatever ye think girls, fake tan is always noticeable. Yes it works for the purposes of photos but think about it, J Lo looks attractive in most photos you see of her. It's called air-brushing. In person, fake tan is always noticeable and I don't think I know a single guy that likes it on girls.

    Fake tan is about as classy as peroxide hair, which itself is about as sexy as a used condom stuck to a carpet. By all means use a light amount of make-up to accentuate what you've got. Plastering foundation over acne doesn't work so why do so many women thing that plastering fake tan over it will? Make-up isn't meant to be a complete face-mask, it's an adornment and at that, one wear the simple rule less is more is VERY true.

    A tan, real or otherwise, is not sexy. Neither is bleached blonde hair. Neither are hoop earings, too much jewelry or wearing hooker boots with a short skirt and low-cut top. That's called trashy. It's taking your idea of what's sexy from cheap strippers and whores. Which, lets face it, just aren't sexy. You want sexy? Look at Audrey Hepburn, Gretta Garbo, Brigitte Bardot or in more modern times Ashley Judd, Kiera Knightly or Natalie Portman. What do they all have in common? In a word: class. That's sexy to any man with a brain. If you want a slack jawed yokel, dress trashy, you'll find one soon enough. Want the nice guys to approach you instead of the yokels? If you've enough brains to be classy, you have my point by now. If not, enjoy being a trucker's wife.

    Some fake tan smells like cornflakes - can be off putting in the sack.

    Mind you I'd say I don't smell of roses ;)


  • Registered Users Posts: 648 ✭✭✭strawberry


    I recommend a trip to China - they love white people there, if you have a tan, you're a peasant.

    and what advice was that?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 205 ✭✭Ryvita


    You were complaining that you "can't say anything on here". Yet you called this thread "pathetic" .... practice what you preach and all that :)

    I just think that the girl who started this thread is getting a hard time ... She's been made out to be some kind of Bimbo because she wanted to ask a question about fake tan.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 9,894 ✭✭✭Chinafoot


    i never called anyone in particular pathetic.....the petty b1tching that arose out of it was pathetic. and i stated that i found it amusing!

    my deepest most sincere apologies!

    oh and if u want to talk about hypocrisy, your saying how ravenheads getting a hard time and yet your response to seraphina wasnt exactly the nicest post i've ever read, all she did was point out the obvious. but thats just my opinion.

    so lets just agree to disagree.

    I thought she deserved it but that's just my opinion ;)

    Fair enough though! I did jump down both your throats - sorry about that!

    I do think it was interesting how people reacted to this thread though: I think it raises a few interesting questions about women and how they are seen these days and more importantly how they see themselves.

    Admittedly I do feel that most people were taking the p1ss ... especially the "you go girl" stuff ... at least I hope they were :dunno:

    tbh is probably would have been better somewhere like PI, it was always gonna get the p1ss taken out of it here.

    It was there in the beginning and was moved as far as I know.

    You know I'm not so sure you were. There was too much emotion ... you typed it like you really meant it!

    There's no need to be ashamed Tman ... you're a big american talk show host trapped in a mans body!

    yea i guess i wouldnt really consider it a "problem" but at the same time it didnt really fit in with this forum, at least not if she wanted it taken seriously.

    ah well!

    First off it was posted in PI & moved .....
    Secondly I would have to agree with Ryvita - This threat was started to see if I could get some info on whether or not other women had this problem with a particular brand of fake tan. Nothing more .... So get a life guys, just because a girl wears fake tans doesn't make her a bimbo.....You can be gauranteed that a lot of girls that you know wear tan & you don't even realise it.... so get a life. Caring about what you look like when you go out does not make you a bimbo.:mad:
