Marilyn Monroe was a big movie star.  She was born on June 1 1926.  She was apparently born in an orphanage, however there are clips that show her growing up with her mother which is also her real mother.  She was not as big an orphan as one makes out -  the vacant orphanage biography was styled to make her ever more poor and desperate for that thing called fame.  Biographers loved to tell a tale of a Hollywood dream where the poor grows up to be a big famous star.  The tale makes other poor people dream and never give up on hope that they may be rich and famous on day.  A lot of biographies were styled.  They were not just written black and white, they were styled to make the actress or singer ever more famous.  So Monroe's biographers decided to style her as a poor person who lived life in an orphanage first amongst most things.

There have been many questions however about how Monroe bloomed into a star and was mistaken for being a boy at the same time.  Maybe it was her size -  in photographs she seemed larger then the other girls who were remarkably smaller.  Her larger size was capitalised into the words 'generous curves' and from there her large figure was all the rage.  But what was it about Monroe that made people think she was a boy?


Well first there were some clips of her being an amateur model.  She sat in a manner that looked as though she may have a hidden piece in-between the thighs.  Yes that is right, it looked like she had been given herself a tuck in order to be a model.  No one will ever know if she had loins on the day for during her early modelling gigs she wore clothes decent enough to not show a proper outline.  However she appeared like someone who could have been a she-male, and her naughty smile and uncomfortable modelling showed off that she might have been more then what meets the eye.

However then Monroe had some plastic surgery and was turned into a movie star.  She looked like more of a woman then ever, and her photographs with Tom Kelly showed off her curves and her nest clearer then ever.  Before this nude shoot in 1949 her organs were hidden and kept in disguise.  No one knew what was going on down there, and they were left to assume that she may have been a guy.

However with her nakedness revealed she was sure to be taken seriously as a woman.  No, no when you are Marilyn Monroe!  Her looks and stiff figure were put on parade as she performed in a string of Hollywood movies.  For some reason people continued to say she may have been a guy, and this was revealed in interviews not to mention her appearances as the weeping woman after Miller filed for divorce.  She looked like a woman on a high, and during psychiatric interviews Monroe began to tell her shrink that she felt as though she could have been another person.


This kind of talk tipped JFK who looked as though he trimmed his eye-brows to appear like Monroe.  When JFK looked to Monroe he saw someone 'iffy'.  So JFK stalked Monroe while his wife Jackie stood by him like a Monroe figure herself with lightweight hair and raw looks that looked more like Norma Jean then painted Monroe did. 

JFK and Monroe had their fights and battles.  Monroe's size made JFK appear thin, and his height made her appear short -  it was a daunting coupling.  It was said when they fought JFK would accuse Monroe of being someone who she was not, she would often be left trembling after a bit of warring and a bit of tousling.  Monroe was a heavy woman and she was able to give JFK quite a bit of resistance -  however JFK was crafty;  he was all about psychological and physical domination and in the end he was able to call the shots against a woman who made his skin crawl.

It is possible JFK wanted to get close to Monroe to see if they were related.  Or he may have been on the hunt for German illegal aliens which he thought Monroe could have been.  Or he may have been curious about her built and her sex.  Whatever drove JFK was madness, and it was claimed that Monroe died after being abused by him.  However all that is conspiracy, before she died she was a large discussion and if JFK was around he would not easily turn away.


So back to Monroe being accused of being a man.  She was often spotted as giving hints about her sex which led the public to question if she were a man or a woman.  Some conspired that the lesbians in the community wanted to see her as a man, but others said that she just appeared as though she could have been a man despite her curves.

Her psychologist caught sight of Monroes skill at weaving a story when she came to him.  Sometimes she was in distress, other times she was normal; whatever the case she liked to talk, and when she did she hinted that she could have been another person on the inside.  No doubt she was scorned for trying to disclose a hint that she may have been more then what met the eye.  If the interview with her psychologist were put on film no doubt one would be able to see that she tried to tell the world she was more then what she was on the inside.  Conspirators would have eaten the words up and weaved a tale that she may have been what they suspected -  a man; and not just any man.

Most people agree that if Monroe ever were a man she would have been Elvis Presley who wowed audiences with his singing and his skill at capturing a decent shot when on camera.  His leadership would have been ever more strengthened if he were the real body underneath Monroe's make-up.  He was a good model with eyes as blue as the sky.  The crowd would have eaten Monroe up and would have wanted to kill her for what they suspected -  she was a spirit on top of Elvis Presley's personality and had transformed him into a woman by use of witchcraft.  The breasts would have been said to have been fake; the face would have been said to have been a disaster showing a girl and hiding a boy; Monroe would have been burnt on the stake for having had helped transform the real Elvis Presley into a woman and leading a new era of Hollywood.  However this was never proven, and so all the conspiracy theories were pushed aside for the woman who in the end declared that she was not a man, and not a fake.  


During her life Monroe was conspired against, scorned, and even cheered.  Those who were not eager on conspiracy saw her as the woman she was, and those who were on conspiracy saw what a fake she was.  Monroe was not given advice -  when a person could not put up with her she was ignored.  In the end Monroe was pushed aside and the dream of conspiracy theories died.  No one knew if she was a man or a woman, but as long as she was Monroe she was loved and hated until the movie reel stopped.
