I wear a shirt now. I just get red then freckley even with sunscreen.

And I'll wear one whether I'm in the gulf, the ocean, lake or river. Probably at a fjord too.

Apparently, they don’t want to get darker.

Which is comical to me because black is nothing but black but ok.

I guess that’s like saying I’m black but i don’t want to get more tan

You start a thread about black people wearing shirts on the beach and then call me out for craving attention.

Get a clue

It’s because they don’t want to get darker, seriously this is the answer. Unlike white people most black people don’t want to be more tan

While we're having this little q&a... what's the deal with black people and speakerphones? Why can't they hold the phone to their ear while using it in public?

I’ve known you as a poster for nearly 10 years. I always got the impression you were black even though I think I knew you weren’t. Due to a former profile pic you had on a different site.

No OP means why do black people swim with shirts on? A lot wear socks too.

The beach is the sand

The ocean is the water

So the life guards don’t get them confused with seals.

Safety first.

Actually, no. Apparently, there is a hell of a lot of prejudice between black people of different skin tones. I had no idea until an African American friend of mine told me this.

Good question. Any other place they would jump at the chance to smell like coconut.
