UVA can weaken your immune system but unless you're tanning every day for 20 minutes (Why you would want to destory your skin like that is beyond me) I wouldn't worry about it.

That's not true! Tanning actually stimulates the immune system, and can reduce the symptoms of a cold by up to 40%.

The same thing will happen if more than one woman lives in a house. Sorority houses see this all the time...the body regulates based on pheramones that are released around that time. So it's not likely that tanning is responsible.

I recently came across an article that too much tanning may harm a woman's skin in some cases. The same goes for men as well.

This was the article I was talking about- Tanning is Not a Healthy Practice. It states that the Sun tan which is a browning of the skin resulting from exposure to the rays of the sun, which we generally consider good for the skin is actually an injury to the skin.
