Steel magnolias refer to strong (southern) women.

As M'Lynn is watching her daughter Shelby die, Shelby's husband and father are too upset to stay in the room and M'Lynn says, "I find it amusing men are supposed to be made of steel or something." In the play and movie, the 6 central female characters are the "steel magnolias".
