Scandinavians are darker than Finns, Balts, and British Islanders. Is it because Scandinavians have

Nordics generally have MC1R, they can get golden tan. Brits are pale and can't get tan mostly, they burn and get red. It's a disadvantageous trait in a world globally warming.

Tanning isn't advantageous when most people spend most of their day indoors. Also, global warming is exacerbated by emissions in to the atmosphere which block UV radiation; the world is getting less sunnier as time goes on.

Scandos are the lightest europeans.Brits have med admixture and balts have slavic input.

No, they are not, it is British&Irish.

Having Med aNd Slavic input means nothing.

I think having pale skin with ability to tan without burning is good. You can get enough d during harsh winters or can stay under sun without fear of burning.
I have this kind of skin, I get pale and tanned very easily.

Anyone who is not a black African or Melanesian suffers irreversible DNA damage and folate degradation upon exposure to sunlight, leading to genetic mutations passed on to offspring and cancer.

The fastest rising number of male skin cancer deaths is in Portugal and Greece. However, the mutational burden of UV exposure in the southern European population is far more costly than the number of people who die of cancer.

Portugal saw the largest growth of male mortality rates due to melanoma from 1985 to 2015, with a 192.4% increase, followed by Greece and Ireland, which saw rises of 121% and 115.5%, respectively.

Honestly that has probably more to do with rising ages.

Then why didn't deaths increase in Japan for males? Their male rate didn't increase, despite Japan being older.

Japan saw the lowest increase of melanoma deaths for the three-year period, with 0.24 men in every 100,000 dying and 0.18 out of 100,000 women.

It's because Japanese people avoid the sunlight and spend more time indoors than Southern Europeans, who live at a similar latitude.

Sunlight will only mess your DNA up and cause birth defects and damaged ugly skin. It also weakens you.

I don't mean getting intentionally tanned for hours, it's meaningless for me and I don't like sun so much. But, not being ought to use sun cream to not burn is a useful thing.

The British albino-looking types are their own type ,they should have their own subrace ,it's a shame to equate them with the gold-tanned niggers of Scandinavia ,CE&EE.

No it won't if you don't live dozens of longitudinal degrees closer to the equator than your skin is meant to or if you don't stay under the sun for long period of times just because. Melanoma is all things considered not even that common until old age, after people usually have kids.
