Thank you, Society for Women's Health Research for this article.
I also wanted to add that although women who are fair skinned, blonde or red headed, and have freckles are more likely to develop skin cancer, this does not mean that dark skinned women cannot get it as well. The chances decrease but they do not go away entirely.
Depending on what part of the US some people live in, the sun can be more damaging than in other states. I live in Florida and at the moment, going outside feels like you're walking into a hot steam room.
I can hardly stand being outside for 10 minutes let alone willingly sit there for hours.
