I am not a particularly thick-skinned person.

I have a thick skin, which comes from being a not-really-skinny, dark-skinned Indian woman. I haven't fit in every place, and so I'm kind of used to resistance.

I am tough but I have a soft side.

Having a thick skin doesn't mean that you're hard or harsh. I was lucky because I was born with a thick skin. That doesn't mean that things don't bother me, but you have to keep it in perspective.

I have such thin skin, so I make a concerted effort to avoid reading anything about myself.

I'm thin-skinned in a way that's just dumb.
