she didn't have the "cute" factor so it must be something that a woman would not understand....
but I think its mostly that she was easy and everybody knew it....

No...I don’t think that was it, that she was “easy”.
I think, to many men, it was more that she seemed soft and accessible. To a lot of us, she seemed to trigger a feeling somewhere that she liked men, and not necessarily in a strictly sexual sense. (I have no idea if she did or didn’t really enjoy men, that is just how it seems to us...:)
Ever see that woman at a party that guys just gravitate to like a magnet? She isn’t always the most beautiful one. She isn’t always the best or most revealingly dressed one.
She is usually the one who is laughing with a big smile and guys clustered around her. She clearly likes men, and I think men respond to that on some level. That is what I think made Marilyn Monroe attractive to men.
