Question: why is skin so delacate

Robert Lees answered on 17 Nov 2015:

Skin has no need to be delicate, it is really quite strong and durable. You can pull it, pinch it, hit it, squeeze it, rub it, burn it, cut it and it will be able to heal or not even be affected. It probably can’t be too thick otherwise it would be annoying having to bend it at joints, like your fingers.
