But there's no one, monolithic, "Asian" culture. And tanning's only a recent Western fad, and it's more prevalent in America than it is in Europe.

You could easily say British people look younger or Swedish people look younger, IDK if we're making generic statements.

Not to mention the whole "they don't tan because they've know the ~hidden~ secrets of damaging UV light for centuries" thing. Pale skin was/is valued in both the Western and Eastern worlds because it signified wealth and not having to work outside day after day after day. Just like how tanning now signifies the ability to hand over great gobs of cash and the leisure to sit underneath a UV lamp for hours at a time.
