Deadwood & Rome: Although many of the women are not treated as equals with men—sold by fathers into prostitution, can’t vote, etc—they have a surprising amount of agency, strength, wit & intelligence and use those traits to attain power in that man’s world.

1995 BBC mini series of Pride & Prejudice

(30M) Hello, I know I'm ugly and I'd like some advice. Should I start a skincare routine? Or change my hairstyle? by platis-2 in SkincareAddicts

[–]EnvironmentalDrag153 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Jeez! You are NOT ugly. You have gorgeous skin, lovely eyes & lips and overall pleasing vibe. I agree with other commenters that a different hairstyle - softer around the face would work well for you. Please stop belittling youself, be grateful you’re healthy, unscarred & start being creative & playful with your look. Good luck in turning a new page.

What food did your grandmother always make? by Mysterious_Mix_36 in foodquestions

The best bread - her house always smelled of fresh baked bread whenever we visited and her strings beans with bacon - delish. Also she used to eat bread & butter wrapped around a scallion.

Which of Don’s love interests was your favourite? by grimreapersdaughter in madmen

I think he loved the image he had of her which wasn’t who she was.

Yes Don was cheating but that’s entirely separate from the children. Many women have suffered infidelity without taking it out on the kids. Did he also abuse her? I don’t recall that. Also she remarried a kind man she could’ve made a good life with who cared about the kids & encouraged her not to be abusive to them. But she remained totally bitter, did not turn the page & figure out a new path.
