Teens in tanning beds: Yay or nay?

New York is currently considering a law that would ban minors from using tanning beds. Are you in favor?

NAY!!! All of you girls can say you don't care about getting skin cancer now until you actually...idk...HAVE IT!!! You can even get burns from it. Oh and @trident7 Since you were 8?...sounds like somebody's gonna have skin cancer. I'm not trying to be mean but your mom needs to read this article maybe it will put sense in her head that TANNING IS RETARTED!!

Moderator!
Don't you think it's very clueless and stupid to use tanning beds? All you have to do is get a natural tan (the sun's UV rays is less harmful than the ones in the tanning beds!), or get that spray tan! I've done a lot of research among this topic and I believe this is a complete outrage!




Hey girlie,

Personally I don't use tanning beds either - spending some time outside is healthy for your bod (Vitamin D, babe!) and you can always get a tan from a self-tanning lotion. But it's a personal choice and unfortunately some people make the less-healthy choice on this one... Frown

You don't need to go to a tanning bed to get tan. All it takes for me to tan is to go outside and do something.

How about no tanning beds for anyone? Pale skin is not necessarily a bad thing, and tanning beds are dangerous! I understand that they have the same effects as the sun, but when you can tan for twenty minutes and look like you spent hours outside, that doesn't seem right at all!

NAY why would you go INSIDE for a tan when there is a SUN right outside the door besides tanning in a tanning bed is fake the sun tan is REAL

Nay! My cousin goes tanning every other day and I'm worried about her. I keep on telling her she'll get cancer, but she rolls her eyes and tells me she won't. If she doesn't stop, she's gonna find out how tanning is harmful the hard way.
