OP has never seen an actual FILM. Just movies. get the eff out of here.
Along with Garbo, West, and Davis, she revolutionized how women were portrayed in film and that trickled over into the everyday woman's perception of how she could and should be treated. No longer were they just eye candy, they legitemately borught life to roles that few women could have back then. Obviosuly they had looks that made them far more marketable but all were tremendous actresses for their time and back then studio heads called most of the shots.
This idea of her being a harlot and making women idolize her for such a thing is no different then when women look at all the moronic *%%!#! on reality tv and want to be them nowadays. The difference is these women left lasting impressions for their time, most of the *%%!#! now will be a blip on some forgotten webpage after it's all said and done.
