Wouldn't most mulattos be considered medium skin? I'm assuming mulattos to be around 50/50 Caucasian and SSA, and that most mulattos would express a phenotype somewhere inbetween the two parents.

Well most "mulattos" at least in the black community fall under light skinned , keep in mind many black folks (not all or even most) consider Jada pinkett light skinned. In general I think there are norms and categories but the less distinct you are skin tone wise the more subjecive it becomes.
