A boy/girl who thinks they're prestige. They also tend to reply in their own time and they get gassed quite easily. They are normally light skinned but you can get lighties who aren't light skin. Oh, and they're normally good looking too (or think they are). The SDA denomination of Christianity is also populated with them so if you want one, you know where to look.
