It's body is not soft, it has an exo-skeleton
So they can store food and expand and grow.They have no need to invest in hard bodied skeleton if they grow and then molt(suggested answer).
The best way to tell if a skeleton is male or female is to inspect the pelvic area. On the male it will be narrower (it will look like a nice butterfly shape) on the female it will be wider. This is so for birthing. there are other subtle differences but this is the best way to determine the sex of a skeleton.

It's an exoskeleton. Butterflies, like other insects, don't have a proper skeleton. So, they have a skeleton outside their bodies, called the exoskeleton, protecting their insides. This exoskeleton acts as an outer covering too.
