You're no better than the retard women who attribute false quotes to her and idolize the symbol of Monroe as opposed to the person she was.

As an actor, no one compares to the chemistry she had with the camera. The "dumb blonde" she portrayed was her character, a character that she created for her modeling career that eventually evolved. The blonde hair, the body, the breathy voice, the way she somehow portrays this innocence that is dying to be breed is second to none. The fact that she's not even a good singer, but can still carry musicals is a testament to her ability to act, that and her ability to pass one-liners so well. There's a reason why studios put up with her notorious neuroses and it was because when they filmed her, she became nothing short of magic on the screen.

Marilyn Monroe is just the persona. She's so much more than the sex symbol that men 70 years later still think she's just a dumb blonde worthy of condescension and sexism just like most her male co-stars and directors. The fact that she literally came from an orphanage, but had the mindset and pluck to become one of the most widely recognized faces in history should be a tell anyone that she has enough INT to read some lit.

I'm sure Norma Jean wouldn't give a single fuck if anyone on /lit/ called a her a pseud. She'd probably hold a better conversation with your favorite author than you could.
