Talk Forum: What You're Saying

The first season of Mad Men left fans begging for answers, and as rumors about the second season begin to swirl, the Talk forum this week began to make predictions. Will Peggy keep her baby? Will Roger return to work? These are just some of the questions fans attempted to answer. "Peggy will keep the baby, but with no love. She'll use it to gain Peter's affections. I credit Peggy as being more intelligent than the average bear, but she still holds Pete somewhat dear, violating her own credos it seems," said nicolew8ing. Sandunguera, however, disagreed: "I don't think Peggy will keep her baby. There is something eerily robotic about her." The post went on to speculate that "Betty will not leave Don. She will continue to spiral through life in a delusional state," and "Roger will try to return to work -- though I'm not sure what will happen to his relationship with Red..."

Meanwhile, Tootsie is pondering when women got a stronger hand in office interpersonal relationships: "I think the Eighties began an enlightenment by women in the workplace," she said. "More women attending college were interested in marketing, business, etc. instead of the Sixties where attended college to get the proverbial MRS degree. In the Sixties, the executive male approached his female subordinate as though it was his right to do so. The term 'sexual harassment' really didn't exist."
