WTF Just WTF Yale law couple told female clerkship appicants Kav 'likes a certain look'

Being discussed at balloon-juice, LGM, TPM

One or both supported Kav's nomination.

She is the author of the notorious 'tiger mom' article. Yale is investigating him for 'inappropriate behavior,'

IIRC, they warned students about Kozinski's behavior but didn't report it.

I have a cousin who is I believe the first female doctor in our family. She tried to get me buy botox treatments from her when we were both in our 30s. I got into a heated email exchange, telling her that a) I wouldn't even consider putting that crap in my body and I didn't need it anyway (who does that in their 30s!; b) as a woman doctor, I'm proud of what she has accomplished and she should be as well, so why are you even trying to sell me this crap? It's so artificial? and c) What kind of example is this setting? It's not good enough that you worked your ass off through medical school..

Needless to say, she hasn't bugged me to buy anything of her b.s. since (she has "invented" some kind of thigh master for the arms).

I think she has some perfection complex, but whatever.
