wings
As a gentleman, I too like the ladies, do have a soft spot.  What’s that? Oh, that’s my wings I’m talking about.  A hard wing cover (elytra) protects my fragile wings.  With this protection, I can flap my wings about 85 times per second when I fly, can you do that?  Even though my wings are covered with a protective layer, they are still transparent – you can see through them.
