Talk Forum - What You're Saying

The Talk forum finds fans making predictions about the upcoming second season of Mad Men. Testa Rosa thinks, "Betty will stay married to Don but start living her own double life (maybe she will sleep with the shrink out of revenge)." Kruschev, meanwhile, ponders the changing social mores under the Kennedy Administration: "I expect to see an end to the sleepy fifties certainties of characters like Pete Campbell." aj54 agreed: "Things changed FAST during the '60s. This is still in era of Ike and Elvis."

Twiggy also weighed on shifting societal norms, posting, "This show reminds us of why the women's movement started. Poor Sal reminds us of how gay people were closeted. The only blacks in the S-C building run the elevators. We take so much for granted today." Mad Woman empathized with Sal as well: "He totally reminds me of my cousin who was shunned by much of our extended Italian family in the late '60s for being gay."
