Never tanned and don't plan to, but I have to say, that is gay. And not in a homosexual way. As in that is screwed up and completely pointless.

Mow the damn lawn or go outside for an hour there's your tan lol

Never understood how tanning businesses managed to stay in open in Texas. FFS, you can tan in the damn winter here.

No kids will get their parents locked up because they were told to mow the lawn.

They are more than likely going off of studies that say the younger you start tanning the higher chance you have of getting skin cancer. And girls are starting to tan at 13 or younger! I agree that this is a bit much, but the literature is there to back this up, so it may actually happen.

What about the state of education in Texas? What about the economy? Why not focus on those instead of some goddamn vanity spray-raying?

I have considered tanning, mainly because I cannot tan naturally.

I am a full-blooded hispanic and I look white as hell. I can go mow lawns from 9 AM to 5 PM on a hot summer day and nothing will happen. My mom is the same way, so I guess I got that snippet of DNA code from her :P

However, this, is the dumbest article I have ever read.

i agree on the tanning business, it does well in Arizona as well and we are one of the states with the most days of sun a year. Hell i don't go outside that often except walking to the car, or catching a bus, at a outdoor mall etc etc. and i still am fairly tan shockingly
