I am not tanned and have never been thought unattractive....I have always shunned the sun and have never thought that "forcing" a tan when you are meant to be naturally pale was a good idea either aesthetically or for health reasons.
Lying out in the sun is not very wise unless you have slathered sunscreen on and keep reapplying it and have a fair amount of melanin in your skin already.
There are many actresses and models who shun the sun and are still very attractive.
Also, Anon#2, there is a lot more to beauty than a colour! If you have unattractive features, tanning them will not make you more attractive especially adding wrinkles to the mix. I agree though, that people should make up their own minds as long as they are informed of the dangers of sun exposure.
