Light-skinded 

A fair skinned African American. May be fair skinned secondary to previous generations of european descent. Fair skinned appearance may also be a result of non-african parentage.

Often, at birth, African American children may appear 'light-skinded' but darken up after days to weeks after birth evoking accusations such as "That ain't my baby!" and "You slept with a white man!"
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).

light skinned girl 

a black girl who is either mixed or just naturally has ligher skin than most black people.

Light skinned girls, because of their high desirability, often talk to many guys at once flirting and leading all of them on without ever actual putting out. Light skinned girls are also extremely bad at answering phone calls, responding to text messages, or following through with plans. Another trait of a light skinned girl is a constantly vibrating phone from the constant stream of messages, tweets, likes, shares, follows, retweets, and favorited pictures. Conversation with light skinned girls is almost impossible without perfect timing, words must be interjected into their busy schedule of posing for selfies, taking selfies, posting selfies, and giving their selfies tags like "#TeamLightSkin, #NoFilter, #SoUgly, #DontHate, #JustWokeUP, #WishIWasPretty"
Light skinned girls will cause you to lose other potential women by causing you to focus all your efforts into fucking them until realize you're never hitting that.
