Stranger: "you got a white momma?"
Me: "Why you asking?"
Stranger: "No disrespect, you are just light-skinded that's all."
Me: "Ahh, that's because Ma'ssr couldn't keep his hands off the house slaves." (implying that there is european heritage in family's past).

Get the Light Skinneded mug.Someone who is only part black with some African American features. They are called lightskinted because they are not 50% or more black so they like to think that they are black, but they are just lightskinted. It also takes part to say ED at the end of the word as in only a light tint of black.
