Well, how do you fare compared to the Zeitgeist? Chat up your fellow wooters and let us know how lame this poll was or what obvious choices we missed. For example: Was this poll a) STUPID, b) DUMB, c) POINTLESS or d) ALL OF THE ABOVE?

Unfortunately I have to wear it or it will get ugly. My skin is pale white like a china doll not to mention I have Lupus which being in the sun is a big NO-NO plus the medication causes my skin to be even more sensitive. I feel like I'm so porcelain white that I glow in the dark. People tease me a lot about my white legs.

I tan easily and seldom burn. If I'm going to be out in the sun all day I'll use it, but I can't remember the last time I did.

Tan-Lady don't wear no sunscreen! Look at her for motivation. She's sexy, brown and hot. Mind you, sexy brown shoe leather.

Unfortunately I'm barely 22 and because of the Irish in me I have have 2 spots of skin cancer removed. Not fun stuff, definitely worth putting on some sun screen.

I decided to have an epidermectomy to ease my fear of skin cancer. People look at me funny too but who gets the last laugh? Me, but I can only laugh remotely from my medicaid-funded "bubble".

Every morning I apply sunscreen. I live in Florida and drive a convertible. Since I am fair skinned and blue eyed and a red head I am extra cautious and apply sunscreen throughout the day.

I don't like how it feels on my skin. So you'll find me in long sleeves and pants when the sun is out.

I live in Wisconsin and am not outside much, so I never put on sunscreen. When I vacationed in Florida last year, I put it on every day.

Whenever I remember to do so, which is essentially never unless I'm at an event or something. I intend to do it quite a lot but never remember.

One problem is that a lot of the time I'm working with my landscaping, and if I put on sunscreen, I wind up completely covered with dirt as every bit of dust sticks to me.

Shouldn't the option 'every time I leave the house' just be labeled 'ginger'?

I put sunscreen on every time I leave the house and I'm half Filipino (Though I'm very fair for having Filipino blood in me.) Face, arms, chest and legs - whatever is not covered.

Sunscreen?

What's that?

Only time I've applied sun screen was when I was in Thailand, and I still got burned.

Typically though I just get darker, never use it.

I wear sunscreen almost EVERY DAY. Thanks to the rest of you that don't though. When we all get old, I'll look really good standing next to y'all with my pasty but wrinke-free skin.

Add me to the list of those who wear SPF clothing and a hat. I put sunblock on my face if I know I'm going to be exposed to intense rays (beach, boat, etc.) but really hate the stuff and therefore try not to use it all that much.

And by "wrinke" I meant "wrinkle"

The true answer is when my wife tells me to, but that wasn't one of the options.

Sunscreen...that's something you need if you travel to that "outside" place, right? Never had much need.

I guess "whenever you're going to be out in the sun for an hour or more" is the best answer for me. I often am working outside in the sun for the whole day, and shade is not always easy to come by (even portable shade). So I put on GOOD sunscreen in the morning, and usually reapply during my lunch break. If I don't do this, I get sunburnt (those days when I forget to bring sunscreen, or run out by accident for example).
