Considering everything she had going against her(illegitimate,poor, orphaned,mollestation) She couldn't have achieved everything she did if she was not smart. She was mentally troubled thats a fact. We can get help for it now. But back then there was very little she could do. Im surprised she got to lived as long as she did. That took alot of guts. You see all these young stars today falling so quickly under the pressure. They couldn't last a day in her shoes. Marilyn was certainly NOT an airhead or the dumb blonde she often portrays.

I always trusted people and had a cheerful outlook; told I was a beauty, but when you are violated (on more than one occassion you feel worthless and hideous. So you always appear well groomed on the outside and disheveled on the inside. I am college educated black female who always felt a connection to Marilyn. I wanted children, etc. it never happened; instead I mothered nieces and nephews as well as friends' children. When I finally found out about Marilyn's offscreen life; it was then that I knew her pain was my pain. Also she was ahead of her time in her condemnation of racism and bigotry (my belief as well). Rest in peace my sister in spirit. I was sexually abused as a young girl.
