Why did the media paint Marilyn Monroe as plus sized because of her post baby body?

During her career she maintained being around 118-125 pounds at 5’5”. She only got to 140 pounds after she gave birth.

Leave postpartum women alone 😨 it’s normal for your weight to go up during pregnancy

I have feeling it has something to do with them grasping at straws, trying to justify the whole 'healthy at any size' propaganda. But just a guess. No youre right, thats about average, maybe under average for a woman

Uh, Marilyn never had a baby 🤷‍♀️
@Montanaman she had three miscarriages

@666Maggotz exactly.
@Montanaman a miscarriage will still make your weight fluctuate and I felt saying post baby/partum sounded much nicer than post dead baby weight.
