Habitus is a term used by Bourdieu to describe the set of dispositions, attitudes, and characteristics that an individual acquires through their socialization and upbringing. In this case, the woman's habitus reflects that of her lawyer parents and their adversarial approach to justice, which will help her navigate the legal profession more easily. An attentive gaze refers to the ability to read social cues and understand power dynamics, negative social capital refers to the negative consequences of social connections, and dangerous knowledge refers to knowledge that is outside of societal norms and could potentially be harmful. None of these concepts apply to the woman's situation as described.
