In season two of “Mad Men,” the ad men of Sterling Cooper come up with a brilliant campaign for Playtex bras: all women emulate either Jackie Kennedy or Marilyn Monroe, so the ads claim the bra fits both.

I say screw Jackie and Marilyn. These days, if you are a woman, you are a Peggy Olson, a Joan Holloway or a Betty Draper.

I’m pretty much a Peggy. Maybe my hair is not as bad (those bangs in the first two seasons were dreadful), and I’d probably realize if I were pregnant, but the similarity comes from my work ethic and attraction to guys who tend to be assholes. Oh, Pete...
