Long Island girls
A member of the female sex that hails from Nassau or Suffolk county; technically, Queens and Kings (Brooklyn) county females are "Long Island" girls, but out in the real world you'll get looks for saying that.
Many of them do strange things like wear their hair like they're Native Americans going to war, fake eyelashes, too much make-up etc. At least they put a great deal of care into their appearance.
Some of them come from well-off families. Some of the girls from Long Island go to college at the University at Buffalo; this saves them about $15,000 a year in tuition vs. most NYC universities, which they proceed to bilk their parents out of by getting them to buy them a new car. Frankly, I'm impressed by their cleverness.
Overall, they're girls like any other. I personally have found the Long Island girls I've met to be very friendly and sweet (and I'm not the best looking guy by any means), so I would say the stereotype of them being shallow is a little inaccurate.
No comment on the stereotype about them being airheads, though.

ME: UB has been around since the 19th century. Do you think Long Island girls came up from the city back in the 1800's to go to school here like they do today?
MY FRIEND LAUGHS: I doubt it.
ME: But can you just picture them coming onto campus in a horse-and-buggy, wearing those old outfits with the giant hooped skirts down to their ankles--
MY FRIEND: --and talking with those accents?
We both bust out laughing

ME: Every Long Island girl I've met has been very sweet to me, despite the fact that I'm no Fabio. They're the butt of a lot of jokes, especially here at UB, but most of them are decent people. I will always have a soft spot in my heart for them. I kinda hope I marry a Long Island girl someday.
