Marilyn Monroe was an authentic “sexy symbol,” because not only was she “sexy” by nature but she also liked being one- and she showed it. And she came at a time when the censorship to which we all had to submit (cheerfully, I would say) no longer existed. The skirts rose to the hips, panties became visible and the eye of the public was riveted on them. The performance no longer counted. -Marlene by Marlene Dietrich
