After getting home from about a 3 hour ride, I was changing my shirt when I realized I had one of the worst farmer tans I’ve ever had in my life. Now I have to find a way to get rid of it before school starts in 10 days
Whatever you do, don’t use tanning beds…I think those are worse for your skin than the sun.
Oh and yeah, screenshot or it didn’t happen.
lol, Ok I’ll see if I can get a picture up here
Farmers tans are beast! I’m actualy working on one. Why be ashamed?
Pigs
girls think it’s hot …well at least out here
If your at school why do you have to worry about a farmers tan?
Farmer tans here aren’t the best thing to have…you get tons of crap from people especially girls. Also, I just don’t like 'em. All my shirt sleeves end about 3/4 of an inch before the tan line so there’s like this white ring around my arm.
Full tans are a sign that you have too much idle time to lie in the sun doing nothing. A farmers tan is a sign that you are active and doing things outside. An active person is a healthier and stronger person. In a world where logic was king the farmers tan would be more desirable.
Put sun block on the ‘‘farmers parts’’ and then sunbathe the white parts.
My grandpa was a farmer… I know I don’t want one.
haha. I have a beastly farmers tan. I even got a sunburned in farmers tan while attending a demolition derby. (thats one of the most possibly redneck things ive ever said.)
same with the back of my neck and my actual arms. My arms and neck are like the true tan-tan. Where, it feels like i’m actually darker skinned. Yeah, same goes for my legs. But my legs have tons of scars. and my tan on my legs stops a little above my knee, then just gets white and hairy.
TMC, where in Washington do you live?
I have a pretty hard-core farmer tan too. I must say, I’d rather have my rich-boy white skin back again… I feel your pain.
Your pic looks like you’re from the coast… I’m there a lot. we should ride sometime. And you should come to Spokane too.
When you say full tan do you mean everythings tan(including waist to knees)? Or do you just mean tan upper body(I have)? Mines not from a tanning salon though. Tanning salons are a big waist of time to me. Plus I think its like paying for cancer. Why not get cancer for free?
I live in Walla Walla…lol yes it’s actually a town. About 4-5 hours away from Spokane.
I know exactly where that is. Next Spokane ride there is, you should try to come.
What the heck is that supposed to mean. I am deeply offended.
Either way. But a full tan (including waist to knees and below the ankles) is worse. It is a proportional scale.
What about all the construction workers and manual laborers who have full tans because they take their shirts off? (Granted, less cancer is healthier than more cancer - but I tell ya, I couldn’t keep my shirt on back when I was doing that stuff. White clothes only keep you cooler if you aren’t generating lots of heat yourself.)
I believe what he meant was that rich people generally don’t need to work outside. So, while a farmer’s tan makes you look like a farmer, no tan makes you look like a rich boy. There was nothing racial about it. Turn your “easily offended dial” down a few notches.
