Not true. Moderate and proper tanning done professionally will give you a protective layer on your skin as a sun screen.

Tanning: Nature?s Sunscreen
One reason so many people enjoy the professional indoor tanning experience is that trained operators can give a tanner controlled UV exposures to gradually develop natural sunscreen ? often called a "base tan" ? while minimizing the risk of sunburn. The tanning process actually creates two different forms of natural protection against sunburn:
1. Melanin pigment produced when UV light meets the skin literally enshrouds and shields skin cells in the skin?s epidermis, protecting each cell from getting too much UV exposure. Melanin is a powerful anti-oxidant, helping the skin naturally eliminate free-radicals that can cause damage.
2. As the skin tans, the outer layer thickens (a natural process called acanthosis) which is nature?s design to make the skin naturally more resistant to sunburn.

p.s. I'm a girl and I dont think it's gay for men to go tanning. I think men *or anyone* who dont put on sunscreen (to risk their skin and health) because of their ego are dumb.
