Tanorexia makes it to the NYT op-ed page. There should be a phrase for the pale but proud, sort of like "large and in charge" is used by the happily heavy-set. Somehow "white power" doesn't seem like quite the thing. "Pride in pastiness?" "Transluscent?" Something to get rid of "washed-out", "sickly-looking", "you-need-a-vacation"...
...Do geeky guys often come across as gay? This Google search brought someone to WWPD. I'm thinking a "not that there's anything wrong with that" is in order.
