From "Emergency Sex (& Other Desperate Measures)" by Kenneth Cain, Heidi Postlewait, and Andrew Thomson

COMMENTARY BY A HARVARD LAW STUDENT ON HIS COLLEAGUES:
The downside is you have to spend thirteen hours a day for the rest of your life trapped in an office with a lawyer-man in a yellow polka dotted tie telling you what to do, then itemize what you did ....but its worth it for 90% of my class mates because it provides shelter for all that mirthless self-confidence. They know which firms are suitably elite, which pedigrees are appropriate to marry, which suburbs are worthy of their presence, which schools are deserving of their kids.

Israelis are a mix of North African, Levantine, and Eastern European, which inflames the politics but does amazing things for the women.
