chained_bear commented on the word metro walk
"At M-G-M, if you were a woman you had to do the "Metro walk"--a peculiar exercise that ... required sucking in the stomach, squaring the shoulders, and stepping off with the right foot. Joan Crawford's labored but imperious progress across a room offers the definitive version of it."
