MAD MEN: MEGAN AND DON

Mad Men is pretty awful when it comes to male/female relationships, because, as a period piece, it represents the misogyny of the ‘60s pretty accurately. But things change when Don (Jon Hamm) marries Megan Draper (Jessica Paré). After an argument, Don comes home to find Megan cleaning the apartment in her underwear. She berates him for being old and boring, and the scene seems to show the dysfunction of their relationship. But the audience quickly realizes that we’re witnessing the couple’s foreplay, and this is a game they’ve played before — and Megan is the one in charge.
