Suntan lines

That would explain the name "Solar," actually. I've always wondered about that!

I agree that the tan lines mid-thigh or lower look pretty bad. But at the same time, I find it extremely unattractive when a tan is so much darker than the natural skin color that it becomes obvious that the guy spends waaaayyyy too much time in the sun. It looks unhealthy to me. Case in point: look how freaking dark Zac Efron is for the Baywatch revival! Way too dark. Like a body builder wearing bronzer which doesn't look natural at all. (I know it shows off muscle definition better so that's why they do it, but I still don't go for that.)
