About this quote

This quote has been attributed to Monroe's 1962 Life magazine interview with Richard Meryman, though independent verification of its appearance in that specific issue has proven difficult. AZQuotes cites it as from "Marilyn Monroe Pours Her Heart Out," Life, August 3, 1962, later quoted in Ms. Magazine, August 1972. The sentiment is consistent with Monroe's stated views about gender and femininity, but the exact sourcing remains uncertain.
