I am watching Mad Men on Netflix

[LawDeeDah]

I'm about half way through and thoroughly hooked.

It is gut wrenching to watch how the women are treated so poorly and are treated like possessions with no other condoned asperations than pleasing men, and how men are just expected to fuck around because hey, that's what they do! Not all that much has changed since that time, that is the wrencher as well. Things are pretty well the same but much of it is slipped into the shadowy secret world instead of blatant and in your face as exhibited in the times of the show.

Great show tho and some of the women characters are nothing but awesome - having to work within this anti-woman structure.

I started off absolutely detesting Draper, who represents very well what I absolutely detest about the white male privilege thing, for the obvious reasons but I managed to rip myself away from that and appreciate the complexities and different dimensions of his character and the characters of the rest of the cast.
