Moreover, in educating the public we confront formidable forces: cultural icons who are as bronze as the statuary in the Louvre, the sheer pleasure of being in the sun, and the perceived incremental health benefits of ultraviolet radiation. The dearth of pale actors, actresses, corporate leaders, and politicians confirms that a tan is identified with health, wealth, and power, rather than the travails of the working class, as in the past.
此外，教育公众的时候，我们面临着难以克服的障碍，包括卢浮宫雕像般古铜皮肤的文化内涵、沐浴阳光的纯粹乐趣和人们眼中紫外线的健康功效。面色苍白的男女影星、公司领袖和政坛人物已经少得可怜，这表明晒成褐色的皮肤代表着健康、财富和权力，而不再像过去那样象征劳动阶层的终日辛苦。
