skinned

Stripped of covering

Skinned describes something that has had its skin removed: a skinned rabbit, skinned knees.

It also forms compounds indicating skin type: dark-skinned, thick-skinned, thin-skinned.

The figurative uses follow naturally—a thick-skinned person isn't easily offended, while a thin-skinned one takes offense readily.
