How to walk "like a girl" and how to walk in high heels

The subject of "feminine walking" definitely deserves a separate thread.

I've just stumbled across these two videos about the differences between masculine and feminine walking:

Nice simple simulation, you can adjust the walking person's gender, weight and emotion.

Nice simple simulation

For years I've been trying to reimplement this simulation on this site. Love it!

Today my wide and I walked almost 10km. During the whole 2 hours I've been trying to emulate the "feminine walking style" - I must say it's very addicting! And, I think, I got the basics of it. Fun!

I've video'd myself walking in heels and if I say so myself I'm pretty good at it... so long as it's in a straight line. I just can't do elegant turns 😟

Very important, indeed!

Same. And I can't strike a pose. To take a photo, my wife literally manually moves my arms, legs, shoulders, and the rest.

I just can't do elegant turns

I just can't balance, once I go past 10cm stilettos I go all wobbly on the turn. I look like Patsy Stone after a hard night on the Stolly/Bolly.

To clarify, I'm OK with platform shoes and heels so long as the difference between the heel and the top of the plaform isn't over about 10cm. I have 17.5cm heel Pleasers that are a piece of cake as they have 7.5cm platform soles.
But then I have 12.5cm heel 'pull-on' zipless rubber boots with no platform that I cramp while pulling on these days. I think I'm just growing old.

Easy-peasy
   

Youch!
