A moleskin is a pink (flesh coloured) piece of covering for the genital area of a female. The name derives from the shape of the covering. Such were often used by moviemakers in hollywood. The most famous incident involving a moleskin, was when Janet Leigh lost hers during the shower scene of Psycho. Not discombobulated at all, she merely remarked, that no-one (meaning the staff present) was seeing anything they had not seen before.

In other uses, moleskin is used to cover areas to cope with rubbing, such as for an ill-fitting shoe. Once, when some triumphant hikers made it to the top of Mount Whitney, the highest mountain in the south 48 United States, they met a one-legged man who asked them for help putting on his new moleskin.
