Black people, do we need sunscreen?

[TheKongoEmpire]

I heard like Australians are wht

All of them? You're sure about that?

 

[TheKongoEmpire]

Yeah I definitely use it. I’m in Florida and that sun is BEAMING.

Treasure Coast here checking in.

whether you get sunburns or not doesn't matter....everybody can get skin cancer

Before you take advice from the Coli remember this place also thought black people couldnt catch covid.

Melanin is the only reason why I will marry either a Blasian, full Asian

Both Asian and Black women age well because of the melanin their skin has. Gotta preserve that huge genetic advantage at all costs.

In this thread if you are not black then your opinions based on your experiences don't matter.
If you are a mulatto then STFU.
If both of your parents are mulattos then STFU.
If you have anywhere close to 40% cac genes, then STFU.
If you are an outright cac then don't even fukking dare.
Black people don't need any fukking sunscreen. You rather need to soak up as much as possible but of course with common sense you should drink enough water everytime and know when to take a break under some shade.

I wanna change team darkskin to something better than "midnightboys". How about #blackgold? #theoriginals? #giftedones? #Nubiangods? Or #sunkings?

"Midnightboys" is such a unworthy name for the first homo-sapian skin tone.

I'm 18 and people say I look 14 - 16.

Not my fault y'all got weak / mixed skin and need sunscreen.

This might be the saddest brag in TLR history

"I'm a teenager but some people I say I look like a slightly younger teenager"

"I'm in the 12th grade but people say I look like I'm in the 10th grade"



Ol' baby face in math class with rat whiskers MF

 

[Guess Who]

Haven’t used that shyt since I left day camp in grade 5. Never had a sunburn in my life and I used to play ball outside all day, everyday for years.

I know what the science says—Black ppl should use it to protect from skin cancer—but the science isn’t always right.

Black people really letting conspiracy theories ruin your skin. The sun is the number one cause of premature aging. Put your sunscreen on.

Most skin damage from the sun doesn’t show for years later lmao. Go read a book fam don’t be loud and wrong lol

 

[Action Mike]

The science conclusively says that everyone should use sunscreen.

Exactly!

Yeah we age great but damn as least sunscreen on your face brehs.

Yeah you look better than a cac at x age, but your pre mature aging regardless when you can do something about it. Just lazy

If u live in a hot climate absolutely

 

[Givethanks]

Yesterday's sun isn't today's sun, I think the ozone layer and climate change has something to do with it.

I remember the first time I got sun burn I'm the Caribbean, I was in the water all day and the next day I was so confused why my face hurt lol

I couldn't understand what was going. It was so foreign to me. Lesson learned tho

 

[dora_da_destroyer]

Yes, especially prolonged, direct exposure
