Another Person to Add to My Alliance of "People Who Hates Tanned Skin"...

Ruu-chan (also B-chan in the Another Thing to Add to My List of Things I Regret Saying post) and I had had this one argument/conversation/discussion concerning tanned skin.

I hate tanned skin. I have tanned skin.
Ruu-chan likes tanned skin. She has white skin, like those Europeans... and she's ginger... I think?

I don't see what's great about tanned skin. I like my skin, since I don't get sunburned (well, not as easily as you Australians/Europeans/White-skinned people [I'm not being racist...]... and I've never gotten sunburned before, even though it's unlikely that I would get sunburned, since I'm rarely in the sun and always wear a rash shirt when I go swimming.), but I hate tanned skin. I was born with white skin, you know (well, you probably don't, but...).

But Ruu-chan flings at me and says "How could you not like tanned skin!? DX"
And so I asked back, "What's so great about tanned skin? *raises eyebrows*"
Ruu-chan: "But it's so... nice, and pretty, and amazing (etc)...!!"
Me: *I become speechless*

And so, earlier today during work...
Co-worker No. 1: C-san (also C-san in the  Another Thing to Add to My List of Things I Regret Saying post)
Co-worker No. 2: P-neechan (first appearance)

I was standing nearby, wiping dry the glasses. I'd threw the customer who came to pay onto C-san simply because I couldn't be bothered doing it. So C-san was standing at the till/cash register serving the before mentioned customer.
Then P-neechan suddenly ran in and compared her skin with C-san's. She then cried, 'Ahh... I'm darker than [C-san]!' in this voice full of agony. Then she ran off. (I was like: O.o That was random.)
After that, I approached C-san and had a conversation about tanned skin.
Me: I just don't understand how Australians like tanned skin.
C-san: Yeah. Some people like them, but we... just hate them.
Me: Uh-huh. Well... there's that how we don't get sunburned, but...
C-san: We do get sunburned, it just doesn't show as well.
Me: I've never gotten sunburned before. Still, I don't understand what's so great about tanned skin.
And then we pretty much repeated what we said earlier;
C-san: Yeah, some Australians like tanned skin, but, we, like hate it, you know.
Me: * nodded nodded* I really don't get why...

That's all, my friends~ XP
