    I understand your question and judging by the defensive responses your theory possesses at great deal of irony and truth. It is strange how other cultures( Jewish, Italian, Hispanic, and Black) are constantly mimicked by white people.

    Why on earth would a person whose skin is already dark want to get a tan? Are you suggesting that the only racist people are those with fair skin? Racists come in all colors. There are many kinds of people in the world. You are a reminder that there exists a population of folks with substandard IQ and reasoning ability.

    Racists are attracted to tanning in the way that retards are attracted to asking stupid questions. Embrace the differences, and stay classy buttercup.

    You are referring to white people and only white people with this question. To suggest that only white people are racist makes you sound like the racist one to me.

    because, and i quote one of my black friends - *everyone wants to be a black person, but nobody wants to be a black person.* well, he didnt say 'black person', he said the n word. i guess that means that they want your style, they want your ways, they want what you have - they want to be you without the consequences.

    or maybe it means that they arent happy until they have everything you have...my friends always rants about how black ppl can't have anything to themselves because someone always wants to copy. looking at the world - i'd say that's not too far off. white boys want to be 'gangster' - even in russia. they want to take hip hop, and they get tans to be dark as they can. ppl just need to be themselves. gosh...

    Because they subconsciously want to be black. Being dark skinned use to be equated to being evil, but now people are willing to risk their lives to get darker.
