The tanning generates melanin, which does indeed protect the skin from the UV rays. This is not to say that excessive tanning is harmless. Nor am I claiming to be 100% serious in the post above.

Darker skin only protects you if it's genetically darker. While I enjoy the point you are trying to make, base tans don’t actually help protect you from damaging your skin in sunny climates.
