Tanning became a sign of wealth in early industrial revolution england. Why? Because only rich people could afford to go to the french riviera where the one way to prove you had been there was a nice good dark tan. Since then it's been considered good looking for a caucasian to have a tan.
Being a non-white I hat having such a dark tan from just being in the sun for one day, it takes me a month of no sun to get back to my light color. In south-east asia it is considered very beautiful for a woman to have light skin and a dark skin color is considered low-class as only farmers spend enough time out-side to get a tan.
I think tans only look good on some people and I hate stupid panty tan lines. lol
