Lemmings !

Tbf people also fall for smart fads. But media only reports on the tiny segment of people who are slightly famous and willing to throw caution to the wind. The rest of us just muddle through life.

Would you like a psychological or sociological explanation?

Pure insanity.

What one reads on here lol. Great for a morning laugh with coffee. Yes your right. Common sense is not common anymore

That's so freaking dumb!! I wouldn't follow a trend like that! I don't even attempt to keep up with the Joneses.. LoL

Stupid is as stupid does. For the most part, actors should stick to acting. Yikes.......

Common sense is so obviously uncommon

Curiosity I suppose. Also fear of missing out on something. Two kinds of people, those who cheer when someone gets ahead and those who ask, why you and not me? The why you people are more likely to follow the fad.

What possible value is there in sunning a part of your body almost no one ever sees? If you're gonna be that obsessive about it, tan the bottom of your feet while you're at it. If you're gonna be stupid, go all out.

Stupid fucker.

That's just as bad as anal bleaching.

The answer to your question...... I have no clue. But remember, millions of people bought into the "pet rock" craze. It was just a damn rock.

People do it for different reasons and not all fads are stupid.

From the link:
"One practitioner, who calls herself Metaphysical Meagan, claims that perineum sunning can regulate hormones as well as sleep patterns.

The man who plays Thanos in the Marvel Cinematic Universe saw the Post story and decided to try it out. "

How dumb do you have to be to go for that idiocy? Did he really think he'd feel and sleep better with a tan asshole? Wow.

Years ago one of my cousins convinced some eastern tourists on a northern AZ bus that they were lucky enough to watch the migration of the rare, white-faced buffalo. At least he thought he did. Even he wasn't sure they were ignorant enough to believe him.

It's amazing what people will buy into. But then you see stories like this so often (assuming of course that the story is entirely legit, ha, ha).

Maybe this should include extreme hiking? I like your concern for safety... just asking...

Pretty dumb. I don't think I'd admit to it if I did it. We used to run around naked in Hawaii but we were not sunning any particular part. Weren't really thinking about it. This was before sun screen.

I guess that's what you get for mooning the sun.

Some people are sheep, must do what others are doing.
I am too much of a non-conformist to follow any fads.

One of the more stupid fads. I agree.
