Who here works outdoors, with shirt on or without? What does your skin look like? Anybody here work with their hands, digging in the dirt, scratching, carving things out, cutting wood, gathering nat materials, making cordage, lashing, etc, etc- got any pics of those hands and arms after a few days scrounging in the woods?
I didn't pay that much attention to how such things affected me when I was 20-30 years old. I do remember my mother commenting one time when I was maybe 12-15 years old- she was like Unk, "your hands look like an old man's ". Probably, dry, cracked, cut, dirty nails and a little swollen. Various cuts, scratches everywhere clothing is not seems pretty par for the course. I continue my skepticism of this material as presented.
