It's just aesthetic. Heavy sun exposure throughout life leads to wrinkles and sun spots/splotchy skin later in life. White collar workers likely needn't worry, though. That advice is more for people who spend their working hours in the sun.
- dougmsmith 4y ago> White collar workers likely needn't worry, though. Have to disagree with this one, everyone who can't escape sunlight and likes to go outside at all is affected. People in the American southwest from all walks of life age shockingly faster (in appearance) than their northern state counterparts. I'd meet women who were 25 and looked 35 (by northern expectations), and it only accelerates from there (35 looking like 50, 50 looking like 70).
- shrimpx 4y agoI totally agree, broadly speaking, that people in SW age out quickly. But I live in New Mexico and have observed that white collar/software eng. people are not nearly as affected. I'm kind of a night owl who gets out after 6pm and I can say my wrinkles are age-appropriate compared to my farmer friends who look 10+ years older than their age.
