I feel the same way about bronzer and tanning creams and such, but that's just because I love light skin.
I think people should be free to do what they want, whether it's darkening or lightening their color.
It's not because I personally like white skin the most (as in esthetically), that I think everybody should try and achieve it. Beauty's in the eye of the beholder.
I do have lots of people telling me I should tan some or that I'm 'ridiculously' white, and really I'm not that white at all, just regular white skin. But I don't let these comments get to me.
I feel like the standard is dark skin now, there's very few people who prefer light skin: every actress wants to be tanned for a premiere, people are extreme in sun bathing, tanorexia,...
However, I would never use photo shop on a pic of me to attract a guy. Making yourself look different than you really are is the last way to build a good relationship.
