woman with golden hair is Irene, heroine of Galsworthy’s The Forsyte Saga. She is described by the author as looking like a pagan goddess, whose figure expresses that of the Goddess of Love.

From literature to real life, the next type of Love goddess can be found among the goddesses of our times, who are film stars. Some of them are known to have dyed their hair blond, in order to enhance that concept of them, and one such modern Love goddess is Madonna, who is not even beautiful but distinguished by her blond hair. A better claim for the title, though, is Marilyn Monroe, who became famous for her film Men Prefer Blonds. Monroe certainly had the appearance of a Love goddess, with her original dark hair dyed blond, her lovely curvaceous body, and the many stories about her relations with men, that enhanced that illusion. That combination of her appearance, her profession and her behavior, certainly made Marilyn Monroe a throw back to pagan times and Sun worship. It is no wonder, then, that many women like to imitate her, at least by becoming blond; but such throw back may also affect those dark haired men, who prefer to enhance their outer persona in this way.
