Wow she did very impressive cartwheels!!!! respect....

i even can't do that......

[oismackhead]

i wonder how young she was here

she couldnt be anything older than 14

what a body for someone so young!

I'd say this film was made either during WWII or shortly after. She was probably between 16-20 yrs. old.

I don't think this was in the late 30's ,because why is the film in color? I'm not sure but she was so prettyyy(;

@xXPinkGoddessXx In my opinion a girl who is less likely to be desired sexually will be LESS likely to search for male attention. Marilyn a stunningly beautiful human being for example searched for male attention her entire life. Someone who is incapable of recieving the male attention they desire may altogether give up on and find other parts of life intriging. When it comes easy, you see how far you can go. Marilyn went pretty far in terms of recieving much attention. dam no more room

@someguynamedaaron I never said physical development has any strong impact on a psychological need, you did, but that a girl who is less likely to be desired sexually is more likely to seek it. Marilyn was definitely more likely to use her sexual wiles to attract the male attention she needed, but that doesn't mean they causes the need itself.

[someguynamedaaron]

@xXPinkGoddessXx disagree. Marilyn received male attention early due to developing early. Combine this with not having a true father through her childhood gave her many insecurities i believe. Just because a girl is underdeveloped does not mean she is less secure. I believe marilyn had many insecurities and most of us would agree that she was stunningly beautiful.

@someguynamedaaron Developing early physically cannot give someone a need for male attention, it runs much deeper than that. Actually, I think girls who are underdeveloped and therefore more insecure would feel a greater need to attract men.

I like it how elegantly she crossed her feet before first flip. Such a female!

[someguynamedaaron]

@oismackhead yea she looks a lot older then 12 or 14 (the two ages people are saying she is in this footage) developing so early may have gave her the need for male attention

[petewingnut]

I've seen this before & I believe it's 1938 which would make her only 12
