Well, yeah, sunlight is important for synthesizing Vitamin D and such. But we're not talking about hiding underground away from natural sunlight to become vampires or something. We're decrying superficial and shallow notions on beauty and fashion that drive people to unnecessarily expose themselves to artificially-generated ultraviolet rays in prolonged periods of time, at various levels of concentration, to get a "crispy" skin complexion. Which is rather dumb.

Like how regular exercise is okay and encouraged, but pumping iron so much to strain on the body's muscular and cardiopulmonary systems to the point where you become a grotesque steroidified muscleman he-man at the present, and will end up becoming a heart-disease-ridden big Dicked Cheney in the future, is not healthy.
