do you love sun bathing?

Hi cherriemae I use to lay in the sun all the time when I was a teenager. And I would get so brown. But now that Im older and wiser about the sun I dont lay in the sun anymore. I have real fair skin so I get sunburn easily. I cant believe I would fry myself.LOL

Funny you should post such a discussion. I just sunbathed today as a matter of fact. I am not overly concerned with getting sunburned because I already have a tan. When you already have what they call a base tan then it makes it harder for you to get burned. Now I tan both outdoors (sunbathing) and I also have a tanning lamp in my garage that I use. I use the tanning lamp when it is rainy or cold outside. Or if I just didn't get a chance to lay out that day then I will get in my tanning bed for a little while after the kids have gone to bed. I really prefer to sunbath instead of my tanning lamp, because when you sunbath you are also soaking up vitamin D which is something that your body needs. While you are in a tanning bed you don't get the vitamin D.

My skin is naturally brown or tanned so I don't go sunbathing. While I love to go to the beach and swim in the sea, I don't bathe under the sun because I get really bored. I'd rather play volleyball or build sandcastles, that way I still get some sun and having fun too. Also I'm afraid to go out in the sun around 10am - 2pm because they say the sun's rays are very harmful during those times.

I don't like sun bathing.It made my skin look darker and I don't want to feel the itchiness every night on my skin.We all know that there are already radiation that can harm our skin nowadays.

I don't sun bathe.. My skin is white and I love swimming.. I don't really care to be under the sun... i just enjoy swimming..

of course i will say no, because it will make my skins dark.. i just hate sunburn.....

I do not do much of sun bathing myself either. I don't like to get too dark in the summer. So, I always stay inside until the sun goes down if I don't have to go out that day.

When I get time I set in the sun out in my back yard I do early mornings the sun isnt to hot then

I use to sunbathe when I was younger.Usually I went to the tanning bed. Its just too hot for me to lay out in the sun now. I don't like the heat and humidity we have here in the summer time and late spring.

i love to go sunbathing to catch a nice tan. its a shock to UK when we see summer here as practically 10 months a year it is cold so we enjoy every moment of the hot weather we get

When I was younger I would lay out all the time and now I am older I don't like to anymore.

Sorry, I'm African I'm used to sun. So you see it gives me no harm on the body. Thanks

i hate sun bathing...i get weak when im under the sun or if its so hot! ill be having a hard time breathing..so sun bathing is really a no-no for me..

Hello cherriemae I love sun bathing and i like when my skin tanned, even though its mean that all my body get sunburn but i love to that, i put a lot of suncream so i can minimize the pain. Thank you

I don't sunbathe at all. Partially because of the health concerns, UV rays are bad no matter what the time of day. I wear sunscreen when I am going to be out in the sun for any length of time. I'm pretty pale and burn easily, too, so it is especially bad for me. I mostly don't sunbathe because I find it very boring to just lay there in the heat doing nothing. I don't like being hot, nor do I like being bored, so sunbathing is practiacally punishment to me! :-)

Despite all the publicity and warnings, I do still like to sit in the sunshine. I enjoy sitting on my patio on warm sunny days, not exactly sunbathing, more relaxing in the warmth and light.

I like to be tan but not sun bath too much. I dont like being hot too much thats why. I am fine if I've been wet but just dry sun bathing drives me crazy. I dont know why but it does. I dont do unnatural sun tanning like tan bed either.

No, not at all. my skin is too sensitive . generally people are having only facial skin sensitive , but my whole body skin is very sensitive. i just cant stand sun , so sun bath is not at all in my dictionary. and its very tight as you have said that because of global warming and all, the sun rays are quite harmful now. the ozone layer is thining day by day. now people cant afford to step out of their houses withut a sun block . otherwise they have severe sun burns.

I love to but afraid of the consequences of that little enjoyment. The peel after was painful. There was once I went under the sun and ended up having fever for few days. I do go for a dip in the pool just to get that tan, but that was before I read about skin cancer from excessive exposure to the sun.

I don't like to go on sun bathing, especially I don't like to take sun in the face because sun makes look older the skin ( as all we can see on the face for example of fishermen and farm workers). I go on sun bathing after 17.00 PM not sooner and I put sun protection.
