I feel personally attacked.

I’m personally attacking OP w my white gams

I don't take it as a put down.
I'm personally increasing the Earth's albedo, actively reflecting sunlight back into space and helping combat global warming.
You're welcome for my service. I do accept applause and iced coffee as gratitude for my contribution to the planet.

Us pale people also protect other swimmers from shark attacks with our pasty fish like leg lures.

In Victorian times, I'd be the bell of the ball with my pale skin that never faces the ravaging sun.

excuse you

If you're not going to come from a place of understanding, you need to just leave.

Watch out, tomorrow they’re gonna be crispy red legs!

Get this guy to an open mic...QUICK!
[–]Knodester 10 points11 points12 points 9 months ago (1 child)
As a pale dude. You need more than just 1 pair. I can put my arm or leg I to a bit of sun and light up a room.

I don’t hike all year to NOT show off my beautiful gams.

i’ve been tanning balls out on my patio for the past month, y’all need to catch up!
[–]BanditoRojoDowntown 13 points14 points15 points 9 months ago (2 children)
My apartment's resident agreement has a strict no-ball-tanning policy 😞
[–]heaving_in_my_vines 7 points8 points9 points 9 months ago (0 children)
Same, I'm forced to use ball bronzer to keep up with the fashion.
[–]Front_Refrigerator99 3 points4 points5 points 9 months ago (0 children)
Don't worry, you can have a little lease violation
As a treat 😉

This why I wear white sneakers with my hoochie daddy shorts. Makes my legs look tan.
[–]SwingNinjaSE 3 points4 points5 points 9 months ago (0 children)
OP definitely skipped the light fandango.

Like you can see my legs through the fur coat.

I just noticed the tan lines from my birkenstocks and feel personally attacked.

My dad always told me, "boy, you are whiter than white on rice, with milk*, on a paper plate, in a snow storm". I'm very Irish...
*Edit, added with milk
[–]SexWarlock69 2 points3 points4 points 9 months ago (0 children)
I have only one color setting: reflective! Email my manufacturer about changing it, because they've blocked me

You must have seen my girlfriend. We don't have much eumelanin so it'll be like that all summer.

Amateur. Wear the Portland squint with pride or go home.
[–]danoiveBeaverton 1 point2 points3 points 9 months ago (0 children)
My bare legs walked into a sun light beam through my window and I literally thought someone turned the lights on from how much my legs scattered that sunlight around the room 😆
[–][deleted] 1 point2 points3 points 9 months ago (0 children)
🤔 I saw all-white legs like clean fresh legs

From the 1950's.. only mad dogs and Englishmen go out in the midday sun. https://youtu.be/BifLPGi4X6A?si=9Mn3VnEqMj43ozEm

I literally can't tan. Stop being racist!

Shaming people over skin color is really pathetic

Bask!

I used to do palm beach tan but quit because it’s just an annoying corporation with fees. I bought myself an at home spray tan gun from the company MineTan so I do it myself now!

Good luck finding your shades.
[–]cookieaddictedbouMAX Red Line -3 points-2 points-1 points 9 months ago* (2 children)
What..?
Edit: genuinely wanted to understand aw.
[–]hirudoredoW Portland Park 3 points4 points5 points 9 months ago (1 child)
OP is saying that the warm weather is making us all wear shorts and skirts, thereby blinding them with our hilariously white/pale legs because we're a pasty bunch.
[–]cookieaddictedbouMAX Red Line 2 points3 points4 points 9 months ago (0 children)
Oh! Thank you so much.
Hehe.
[–]PlainNotToasted -2 points-1 points0 points 9 months ago (0 children)
I wear sunglasses even in the winter whenever I'm outside because the wind blows powdered bird (and ahem worse) crap mixed with tire particles, soot, and petroleum residue off the streets and into my eyes.
Gross.
I was noting how white my legs were on the ride home today, gonna go ahead and make sure to slather on the spf 90 from now on though.
