Basically, because she was an evil woman, of course she had to be slutty. Slutty was the evilest a woman could be, so the evilest of women had to be slutty. So men just assumed she had to be slutty even though she doesn't appear to have been, at least from the passages written about her.

Very good point. And looking at the artwork from the time depicting Cleopatra, she's not particularly beautiful either in a modern sense or even, in our understanding, what was considered beautiful today. What she had was power. She was a powerful woman who knew how to use her power and that attracted men to her.

Yes, she was described by people who met her as not beautiful but very intelligent and witty with irresistable charm.

But it's the flip side of Jezebel - if she had power it could only be because she was beautiful.

Men really are simpletons, aren’t they?
