The characteristics are the following: There are two main objectives of each and every seminary girl. 1.To get married to a nice frum YU boy who preferably spent two years at Shaalavim or KBY. 2. After getting married to one of these men she will want to have tons of babies and to raise them as frum Jews while she will be is a housewife. In order to obtain these two objectives they must go under a radical transformation during their time in Israel. They begin by accepting everything their teachers tell them uncritically and unquestioning as the word of God. They will then begin to change externally first. They will begin to wear only skirts that cover their knees and blouses that cover their elbows, also their clothing will become much more bland and dull. Following these changes they will begin to cut ties not only with boys, but also with any girl they knew from before, unless they too are undergoing the same change. This process also includes her very own parents. She will not dissolve this relationship, but she will most likely start criticizing her mother for not covering her hair. At this point she will also delete her facebook account and hunt down all photos that she makes an appearance and have them destroyed as well. Urban Dictionary
