Significance of an All Over Tan
Return to DiscussionsYou can't help but notice them on nude beaches or resorts. It is the people with a deep, golden, all over tan. They all share a mellow manner and inner peace. To me, they are like Nudist Royalty. They get my admiration and respect. I have vowed this summer to disavow a tan line.
When you see someone with an all over tan, what does that mean to you?
For one thing, it means they are someone who can tan instead of burn. It also means that they were sensible and didn't over expose right away -- because I tend toward "olive skinned" anyway, and even I would burn if I did too much too soon. Let's face it, there are people who should not try to tan -- redheads and some other fair skinned people -- and our nudist ethic of body acceptance should include accepting their light color.
I am rarely outside during the summer with clothes on so I always have an all over tan. Last week I was visiting a friends' garden and unfortunately was clothed. I was bending over picking some strawberries and she remarked that I must wear real short shorts when I garden because she didn't see any tan lines. I winked at her and said she was asking some very personal questions and she just grinned at me. I think she now knows the real answer.
Your neighbour sounds like a good friend and may have been trying to tease some information out of you. A couple of my wife's sisters sometimes comment on my tan in the summer when they see me with my shirt off or just in shorts. Pretty sure my wife has told them. I feel like I have enjoyed summer when I have a reasonable tan and it's all over, no white butt. Sun therapy has a certain calming effect, maybe it's more than just vitamin D.
