Talk:Phryne

RFV
"A demand for one's arbitrary condition." Not clear what this means, really. The only given citation is "Mr. Roark pulled a Phryne in court". Possibly a one-off usage, as I could coin "pulling an Obama" etc. Equinox ◑ 19:56, 13 March 2012 (UTC)
 * Wikipedia article is about the person. I too do not understand the definition. Mglovesfun (talk) 11:09, 15 March 2012 (UTC)
 * It looks like a Rand coinage. Frederick Cookinham, a critic, here defines "pulling a Phryne" as daringly revealing something about oneself and demanding one's adversary do the same. The citation is not particularly helpful. — Pingkudimmi 12:16, 15 March 2012 (UTC)
 * We have six senses of condition, none of them seem to work in this context. Mglovesfun (talk) 20:43, 15 March 2012 (UTC)
