Yes.

I'm partially irish too and have never heard of anything like that. You may want to google it and check but, if i were u i wouldn't worry to much about it.

no, it depends on genetics more than skin type. if anyone in your family has had it, that is what makes you more prone. Of course, if you are in the sun a lot, that will increase your chances. Just having pale skin doesn't make you more susceptible.
