i don't go for a sun tan because i wish to be black, but to stop looking like a ghost. It actually lifts my mood considerably when i have some colour in my face, and believe it on not, the sun is good for you, Vitamin D, which the scientists have been telling us for years. There is a risk of sun damage, cancer if you overdo it, but quite frankly you can get cancer from any source, with combinations of overeating, bad diet, drink, drugs, stress, and so many others things.
so if i wish to look a little tanned then it's not because i wish to attract anyone, i do it for me.
