[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I personally wouldn’t want the extra sun exposure for my child. Men who get melanoma often get it on their upper back/shoulders due to going without a shirt. [/quote] There is actually no link between melanoma and UV. There is a link between squamous cell and basal cell skin cancer and UV. This is a deadly myth actually. The most deadly melanomas often happen in dark-skinned people in strange places (e.g. inside their vagina, under a nail bed) and it doesn't occur to them that its melanoma until it is way advanced because of the myth of skin cancer = fair skinned people + sun exposure. P.S. Squamous cell and basal cell skin cancer are way less deadly than melanoma https://www.bmj.com/content/337/bmj.a764https://www.bmj.com/content/337/bmj.a764[/quote]
