I am proud of the biker tan. I've been laughed at in a bathing suit, by my own mother no less! But the way I see it is I worked for those funky looking lines and that is more impressive than sitting by a pool or in a tanning bed.

That's not to say, of course, that I don't use sunscreen or try to avoid abovementioned tan lines. I do. But I get them anyway and they make me happy.
