I find it’s actually pretty good to compare it to sun protection. Kids used to run around in the sun without sunscreen, still can in some places/times to a certain amount… but we collectively sort of realised the risks and so most people (at least in Australia) use sunscreen to avoid the easiest cancer to avoid, Melanoma. There are people who have a natural immunity of sorts due to darker skin and melanin concentrations, there are people that deliberately expose themselves for perceived benefits like “getting a tan” because “it looks healthy” and there are older people who got lucky and ran around unprotected who think it’s a rip off by big sunscreen and don’t see the point while also no longer needing it due to age and lifestyle changes out of lots of direct UV exposure.
