Your probably right as many turks are very white as are a lot of kurds, we are the same race after all - Caucasian. He was not aware of his origins until the programme featured him as he was adopted as a baby

I think a lot of you have gay and vain mixed up.

Vain is spending longer than 10 minutes in a mirror and gay is bumming men and going to sunparlour places.

I'm 19 and go on them about 2/3 times aweek for 6/9 mins and it helps with my skin and i feel makes me look better rather then navy blue. Nothing gay about it yet some ppl seem to forget its 2007 and need to leave the bedroom more then once a week.

Why's that?

drys my skin out and helps with a few spots i get every other week.

iCraig · 21 Jun 2007 at 15:34

But by drying your skin out, isn't that actually doing it harm?

kkthxbye · 21 Jun 2007 at 15:36

Well I think it depent on how oily your skin is in the first place, and at my age i dont really mind if its good or bad for me I do it because I look better with abit of colour rather then white.

Not the smartest way to think I know.

Not if its too oily in the first place.

Beat me to it, it was my anti who's a manager for virgin cosmetics that said I should try it

Wouldn't it be better to use moisture balance cream, or non-oily cosmetics, rather than baking yourself to remove the moisture?

Every person I've spoken to who's into health or beauty have said that using sun beds regularly dehydrates the skin and hair, causes wrinkles and can do damage to moles and other skin abnormalities. :confused:

I dont need sunbed but my take on it is that whoever uses sunbed needs to be shot, and for men who do it, it just screams GAY on every level.

iCraig · 21 Jun 2007 at 15:54

I'm stunned. ElRazur. Shake my hand. :eek:

But i thought using moisturisers was 'gay'. Surely you can't be advocating that?

It is less gay than the gay ray and if you have a skin condition (thankfully I do not) then you can be excused for using E45 or whatever.

Using moisturisers when you don't have a skin condition is pointless and vain, yes.

Nothing gay about someone using it if they have eczema or something, but if they plaster it on for no reason then yeah, homovain.
