Why Marilyn Monroe Lives On Forever


Marilyn Monroe had the ideal look that everyone wanted to have back in the 1950’s. She rose to fame very quickly and was idolized so much by the public.

Monroe was an American actress and was labeled as a sex symbol within the 50’s. She was born June 1st, 1926 and died August 4th, 1962.

I was shocked to find out that she was 5’5 as she seemed so much taller in photos, I would have thought she was 5’7. Marilyn had short blonde hair and a face that shined in the spotlight.

One rumor that stuck with me was that she really wanted to get pregnant when she was a live and that sadden me as she died so young. She could have experienced more and made more movies.

Monroe could have spent more time with her family and grown into an older blossoming woman. One thing that people loved was that she was kind and you could feel like she was in a sense your friend.

She seemed as she was not all about the money but all for making memories and living life to the fullest. You could tell she was a gentle soul.

Marilyn had the doe eyed look but radiated a sexy vibe to her. She had charisma and you could tell she was a joyful person.

She was all every woman wanted to be and men all wanted to meet her or be her partner. Which is understandable as she was rich and famous.

Monroe was in many movies within her lifespan but her most famous one was called, “Gentlemen Prefer Blondes.” It is unclear which one of her movies she acted in first, but you can tell she made great effort with each one.

When watching her interviews, she answers with such pose and carries herself with lots of confidence. She always looked so beautiful and presentable.

Marilyn left behind some quotes but the one that struck me the most was, “Imperfection is beauty, madness is genius and it’s better to be absolutely ridiculous than absolutely boring.”

I have to agree that imperfection is beauty, it would be so boring if everyone looked the same and did not have any quirks to them. We would have no cool differences and enjoy the small things such as one can tan skin, another can have pale skin, or someone has a big nose.

It is better to be fun and have different interests as you can bond over the said interests or be intrigued by anothers. I am rambling but Marilyn Monroe is an icon and should be celebrated for years to come.

She was lovely and still deserves to be remembered and have lots of attention.

Women were Disowned for Having Children Out of Wedlock

  Many women during the 1950’s gave up their children for adoption and it was mostly because of babies being born out of wedlock. Within this time ladies who got pregnant out of wedlock were shamed and disowned by their friends and families. They were considered a disgrace to the family to have a child before marriage. During this era, it was widely judged. Which I can understand why they would be disowned because they could not wait until marriage but on the other hand it happens sometimes. Many women gave up their babies up for adoption had the right to refuse to disclose the identity of the father. Lots of the ladies did choose to tell people who the father was but it was more common that the women refused to tell. Social workers at the time respected these women’s decisions about this situation. I personally have mixed emotions about this topic. I do not think that people should be ashamed for having children out of wedlock but still should be widely influenced to...
