British summer

The sun comes out and the same thing happens every year - all the pasty white boys, many of whom really ought to know better, start throwing off their shirts and parading their luminous torsos around. ;)

general musing

Because women don't usually go around throwing off their shirts?

Women are just no fun

Because you were very evil in a previous life. If you'd been good, you'd be surrounded by women throwing off their shirts with abandon. ;)

Sounds like Minnesota. Or here. ;)

Some of us are destined to pasty whiteness permanently. I have been using a sunless tanner that's supposed to give just a touch of color, and I'm still day-glo.

I embrace my pasty whiteness. I'm blonde and blue-eyed, so the chances of me being other than luminescent are never really that good, at least not without serious assistance of the chemical or sunbed kind. And life's too short...

Heh. I'm brunette with hazel eyes and knew at an early age that I'd be ghost-like because I get all the bad genes from my parents. In photographs, my mother's bare legs really do glow, especially in outdoor shots. ;)

Makes me want to dye my hair black again, actually, for extreme contrast.
