ARE THERE BLACKS WHO TAN?

ARE THERE BLACKS WHO TAN?

MIISRAEL Bride · Sunday, July 4th 2010 at 8:35AM · 4454 views
IT SUMMERTIME ...IS IT TANNING TIME?
We know that Whites/Europeans tan all the time. They use tanning beds, lotions and potions. Do you think there are any Blacks who tan? Perhaps those with light skin or even dark skin who want it slightly darker? Have you ever considered yourself as having a tan? And...if you never tan or know any Blacks that never do--have you ever known any who uses sunscreens when outside in the sun?

Some people love the darker skin. Care to share thoughts on being Black with a tan?

I don't know, maybe if you are very dark not. But I think many do. My second wife did, and she used sunscreen too.

Steve Williams Sunday, July 4th 2010 at 4:40PM

Oh I like the pic. Shame on you Miisrael, and on a Sunday too, Lord help me!

Cynthia Merrill Artis Sunday, July 4th 2010 at 5:43PM

lol...

Cynthia Merrill Artis Sunday, July 4th 2010 at 5:45PM

Steve Williams Sunday, July 4th 2010 at 6:45PM

Would I be out of line if I said I'd like to see your tan lines?

Cynthia Merrill Artis Sunday, July 4th 2010 at 8:06PM

oooh Steve... What will i get if i show u sweetie? :-)

Steve Williams Sunday, July 4th 2010 at 8:35PM

Well if you let the genie out of the bottle you get three wishes. How's that?

Steve Williams Sunday, July 4th 2010 at 8:41PM

See what you start Miisrael with your innocent blogs?!

Cynthia Merrill Artis Sunday, July 4th 2010 at 9:16PM

lol... Steve...

MIISRAEL Bride Sunday, July 4th 2010 at 10:39PM

@Steve --I was only looking at this bright sunshine and that's what entered into this head of mine. I was enjoying the warmth and it felt good to see the light of the new day. ....So you like that pic? I thought about putting a male pic, but I thought the female was much more appealing to this topic not to temp you ..Sir???. Don't let Doc raise your brow either!.... LOL!

@ Doc..stop flirting with Steve..:>) I need to keep my blogs innocent for him!

@Both--back to the blog topic--For the most part I think many blacks tan and use sunscreens! I took in a bit of sun myself today. Had fun and it's was a wonderful 4th. My family and friends left only a few hours ago... Hope yours went well too.
Thanks you two.

Steve Williams Monday, July 5th 2010 at 5:02PM

Hey now, she is a Honey Bee!

MIISRAEL Bride Monday, July 5th 2010 at 6:13PM

Steve she's one of kind. A honey Sweet Bee, She's been busy studying. So she's probably more like a bookworm right now. We're thinking of her. She may drop in with a hello soon..

Steve Williams Monday, July 5th 2010 at 6:41PM

Bookworm, ha,ha! She will like that! . Oh I am sure she will make her appearance!

Cynthia Merrill Artis Tuesday, July 6th 2010 at 12:10PM

Hello.... I did.... I am a honey bee... love it

Cynthia Merrill Artis Tuesday, July 6th 2010 at 12:13PM

MIISRAEL Bride Tuesday, July 6th 2010 at 12:40PM

Missing you 2! Coccyx and Gluteus maxiums...look at you are those brain terms or what? You're sounding more and more like a Doctor. LOL!

MIISRAEL Bride Tuesday, July 6th 2010 at 4:43PM

Ouch! that sound like it may be a little sun burn. Your story reminded me too of some friends of mine that went to Orlando for a week. You should see them now. Tan with a capital T! They look great...even the 4-year is tanned...Laughing!

"Deep Red" I think I can work that title......mmmmmm?

MIISRAEL Bride Tuesday, July 6th 2010 at 4:44PM

Clark that's humorous....

Steve Williams Tuesday, July 6th 2010 at 7:36PM

Hey Clark, I guess we have something else in common. I am in the sun a lot, I wear a shirt and hat, but my neck and chest (where exposed) tend to turn red.

Steve Williams Tuesday, July 6th 2010 at 7:38PM

Well reddish brown.

Steve Williams Tuesday, July 6th 2010 at 7:39PM

Lookee Miisrael, I have made 100 on your innocent blog.

Steve Williams Tuesday, July 6th 2010 at 7:44PM

Cynthia, you had better make the most of it before the next term starts. Ha! Ha! like you need my advice on the subject! Good luck tomorrow on your big day!

MIISRAEL Bride Tuesday, July 6th 2010 at 8:20PM

Thanks Steve for 100 HITS! iT'S still going...I guess it might make 130!...I'm feeling it! If everybody pitches in we do it... Du..ugh! I reckon...

Steve Williams Tuesday, July 6th 2010 at 9:05PM

Well Ms.Bee will make her appearance day after tomorrow so I think 130 is a bit on the conservative side.

Cynthia Merrill Artis Wednesday, July 7th 2010 at 12:53PM

Cynthia Merrill Artis Wednesday, July 7th 2010 at 7:24PM

Family.... IM Home..... Miisrael you will not believe this... I absolutely hate the sun... my doctor prescribed vitamin e for me to start taking because I my levels are very low... and the main component is from sun exposure.... Which I do not appreciate... NOPE no beaches, bar b ques, walks in the park... Im like a vampire... NO SUN........

The test was ummmmm..... I think I got about a ((B)) I always dreaded Anatomy... and I know why.... But I did a little fast and prayer and meditated.. I felt confident.... The Spirit was with me.....

Steve are you ok.....

MIISRAEL Bride Thursday, July 8th 2010 at 8:44AM

HOORAY FOR DOC! We'll call it a sunny day anyway! You scored a tan of a test!

Steve Williams Friday, July 9th 2010 at 7:03AM

Putting suntan lotion on a lady's back is fun! But sometimes my hands have a tendency to wander, it is like they have a mind of theirs own. Ha!

MIISRAEL Bride Friday, July 9th 2010 at 10:31AM

Okay...you're allowed to wander, but only a little bit.....

Steve Williams Saturday, July 10th 2010 at 9:37AM

Sweet!

MIISRAEL Bride Tuesday, August 10th 2010 at 2:59PM

There's been a lot of sunshine and heat lately...I think there's more heat on this site than I've ever seen. Of course, I'm passing the sun tan lotion. Some of us are turning really dark. I hope we can heal from sun burns. We should stay in unity.

ROBINSON IRMA Thursday, April 10th 2014 at 6:47PM

MIISRAEL, wondering if the # has anything to do with the Queen Bee being back? lo l?

Now we can all relax our test stress of the past few days and just blow bubbles of passing tests. OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO (smile)

ROBINSON IRMA Thursday, April 10th 2014 at 6:47PM

...plus MIISRAEL, I have two white lady friends who would kill to be able to do more than only turn a deep red and that is all. (smile)

ROBINSON IRMA Thursday, April 10th 2014 at 6:47PM
