@Brion Stronghold Probably not a good analogy. White's who often tan typically DO hate their complexion. It's not that they hate being white, it's that they hate being pale. You hear it time and time again. Sosa CLEARLY didn't like his complexion for him to have taken it to these extremes. That's his prerogative, but it's an example of self-hate. No other way to spin it.
