Your ancestors didn’t wear sunscreen because it wasn’t invented yet. And skin cancer wasn’t what was going to take their life. Depending on how far back you go in reference to ancestors, they were far more likely to be taken out in their 30 or 40’s by; an angry wholly mammoth, cold, either the virus or the temperature, infection, the black plague, war, Vikings, falling out of a wagon, carbon monoxide poisoning, a broken bone, measles, chicken pox, cow pox, food poisoning, angry wife poisoning, starvation, diabetes, childbirth, childhood, syphilis, taking mercury for syphilis, lead in your makeup, coke in your soda, opium in your pipe, or by a lawman in the old west. People didn’t usually develop skin cancer until their later days, and most people didn’t make it to their later days. BTW, in 1900 the life expectancy was just 47. To avoid sun burn, which has happened since the dawn of time, people wore long sleeves and hats. So put on your sunscreen and quit complaining because 100 years ago, your biggest concern would have been not dying from a cut.
