It’s quite likely a belief that sunscreen lotion is a bad thing that harms people. Found that one out from an old high school crush from FL. She looks like leather now.
There was a finding a few years ago that while preventing skin cancer, sunscreen was also causing people in some places to get less vitamin d which was increasing instances of colon cancer. The solution isn’t banning sunscreen, it’s making sure people get some small amount of sun or supplements vitamin d.
Being from Oz I never really considered issues with vitamin d until I moved to the UK for a few years and discovered that limited vitamin d is a real problem in winter. Im not sure on the deficiency you need for colon cancer but a few weeks of little to no Sun really messes with your head and body.

I mean, it halfway is:
“Sunscreen” – stuff with a decently high SPF rating – is a good thing that prevents cancer.
“Suntan lotion” – usually glorified coconut oil with fuck-all SPF rating – is a bad thing that harms people.
“Sunscreen lotion” – a confused amalgamation of the previous terms – is not a thing and only misleads people by conflating good things with harmful ones.
I think it’s like the FDA having just reasonable guidelines on how much UV you can safely be exposed to. RFKJR prolly thinks sun lotion prevents all the healthiness from the sun and crystallises your amygdala or something along those lines.
Damn that FDA and their suppression of…*checks list…sunshine?
Was the solar eclipse an inside job?!?

To be fair, non-mineral sunscreens do fuck with your hormones a bit. Still better then skin cancer though.

Did the Wicked movie get the look right? It seems like a fun place apart from all the fascism.
The book did it better =)

This is not truth everywhere. Where I grew up suntan lotion is sunscreen.
When was the last time your big FDA doctor told you to sun your butthole? Why would they hide that from you?
Because your dermatologist isn’t used to checking for skin cancer where the sun don’t shine.
Big FDA not training them on the butthole
