Quote by Marilyn Monroe

I have noticed... that men usually leave married women alone and are inclined to treat all wives with respect. This is no great credit to married women.

I have noticed... that men usually leave married women alone

Summary

This quote is suggesting that married women are often afforded a certain level of respect and are not subject to unwanted attention from other men. However, the quote implies that this respect is not necessarily a reflection of the women themselves but rather a result of societal norms or the expectation of fidelity in marriage. It implies that the credit for this respectful treatment primarily lies in the institution of marriage rather than the individual qualities of the women.
