Today, it was hot out, so I wore shorts. My dad took one look at me and said, "Your thighs are so pale, it's like staring into the sun". FML

Today, I asked my mom if she thought I looked skinny in my shorts. She jiggled my leg fat, looked up at me and walked away. FML

Today, it was hot out, so I opted to stay cool and wear my bathing suit all day. My mom took it as me rubbing in the fact that I'm thinner than her and grounded me. FML

Today, sun was shining and I felt confident enough to go sunbathing at the beach. In only my bikini and towel, I laid out to get some sun. A while later, a little girl came up to me and said, "Aren't you embarrassed that you're so huge?" FML

Today, I was told to rub in my sunscreen because I looked like a ghost. I wasn't wearing any. I'm just that white. FML

Constructive criticism

Today, I had just finished a really intense workout in my garage gym. It was chilly outside, but I crossed the road home in my shorts, as I was still pretty hot and sweaty. A woman walked by and asked, "Aren't you cold, you skinny little whore?" FML

Today, I was really badly sunburnt, so I put on some after-sun. The only type we have has glitter in it, and now I look like a sparkling tomato. FML

There's always that awkward stage when shorts weather comes around. I had that same issue! I don't like going tanning so I blind the world until the brightness lessens. Lol. You're not alone, OP!

Psssh, tan skin is overrated. Porcelain/fair skin is the bomb!

Dude, thats totally me lol. And don't worry, being pale, in my opinion, is better than having a fake tan or burning in the sun. If you're naturally tanned, ten thats perfectly fine.

It really bothers me seeing all these comments about tan skin being gross or ugly. I have to spend a lot of time outside and end up pretty tan by the end of the summer. I personally love my tan skin. Why can't we all respect that some people prefer being tan and there is nothing wrong with that? Nothing is wrong with being pale either but just like most everything else, everyone has a preferance and that's 100% ok

No offense, but you are doing the exact same thing. Why can't you respect the fact other people have a different opinion on skin tanning?

"Why can't we respect that some people prefer being tan...." "Nothing is wrong with being pale either....." "everyone had a preference and that's 100% ok." Please show me if. i missed anything but from what I can tell I never said anything is wrong with either

People ask me if I sparkle. I also get "Hey, where's Edward?" "Oh no! You'll burn in the sunlight!" "I can't look, it burns!" "Wanna go to Starbucks, since you're such a white girl?" Yeah... Being pale sucks more than people know.
