shiksa

A Gentile girl or woman, especially one who has attracted a Jewish man. The term derives from the Hebrew word "sheketz", meaning the flesh of an animal deemed taboo by the Torah. Since a Jewish man marrying a non-Jewish woman is taboo also, this word applies to her.

Traditionally this is a derogatory term, though in modern times it has also been used more light-heartedly. For example, Seinfeld once did an episode about Elaine's "shiksa appeal".

The ideal shiksa is a blonde WASP who look like the opposite of a stereotypical Jew, but in reality, many shiksas are brunettes who might pass for Jewish themselves.
On Sex and the City, Charlotte really blossomed as a shiksa!

Oasis

NOT the Beatles.

Did some fine things back in the '90's, though. "Cast No Shadow" is pretty good.
"And by the way, could we stop with the Hussein-Hitler analogies? Saddam Hussein is Hitler like Oasis was the Beatles. Everyone rushes into a comparison with the giants in the industry, be it pure evil or the music business - not that those are two different things." -- Bill Maher
