[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]A surprising number of whites people have shown their ignorance to me by saying “Wow, I didn’t know you could tan!” I’m not black, but I am a South Asian POC. Oh, white people![/quote]

So they didn’t know…..imagine the ignorance!  Why on earth would you care?  [/quote]

Because it’s a really sh*tty feeling when you realize that someone doesn’t understand that you’re a human being whose skin functions just like theirs. If a person with fair skin can get a tan why on earth couldn’t a person with darker skin tan? I can almost see them thinking “Wow, she’s just like me!” Thankfully none have been ridiculous enough to say that part out loud. [/quote]

And we can all get skin cancer the same, and we all have the same laser hair removal experience. We are just like each other. [/quote]

Stop being obtuse. You recognize we all have skin, hair, and are susceptible to skin cancer. Only an idiot wouldn’t realize darker skin can tan just like lighter skin.
