Cheating: Would Marriage Change Your Reaction?
Last night on Mad Men, both Don and Betty are tempted to cheat. While Don, a seasoned philanderer, has no trouble cheating on Betty with his daughter's former teacher, Betty thinks twice about consummating her flirtation with belly-toucher Henry.

Mad Men: Why Is Vacation Sex So Good?
Last night on Mad Men, dapper Don Draper has to go to Rome on business, and seemingly on a whim, Betty asks if she can accompany him.
Once they're in Rome, something happens to Betty. She glams it up, flirts with Don, and their stultifying marriage seems to get an erotic adrenaline shot to the heart.
Mad Men: Do One-Night Stands Make You Feel Worse?
Peggy! So good at your job, so bad at choosing men. Back in the first season of Mad Men, she skittishly flirts with Don, her boss, on her first day because she's told he needs to like his secretaries to keep them.

What did I expect anyway — for Betty to have her baby in the master bath while Don burned lavender and massaged her shoulders.
Mad Men: Does Kitty Realize Her Husband Sal Is Gay?
If you watch Mad Men, you know Sterling Cooper's art director, Salvatore Romano, is gay. Whether or not he knows remains unclear, but that near-tryst with the bell boy should have helped clarify! Meanwhile his wife, Kitty, lives in semi-blissful ignorance — at least until Sunday's episode.
Power Couples of Mad Men
The show may be titled Mad Men, but every season the female characters become more prominent, more successful, and way more interesting. But if there's a woman behind every moderately successful man then the writers of Mad Men are trying to tell us something. Let's look at the couples and find out!
Say What? 1960s Ad Agencies Really Were All Sex and Booze

Do You Act Younger or Older Than Your Age?
This Sunday Mad Men was filled with people not acting their age. The show opens with a clip of "Bye Bye Birdie" being sung by, according to one of Peggy's best lines, "a 25-year-old woman acting like a 14-year-old girl." Is this a harbinger of things to come?
