6. Don Draper – Mad Men
Via startribune.com
Money, women, infidelity, smoking endless cigarettes, alcohol, a good job, more women; what the days were like back in the 1960s for Don Draper and the “Mad Men.” Played exceptionally by actor Jon Hamm, Draper is the quintessential example of the power and control men used to have over their stay-at-home wives. The seemingly “live life however you want” mentality allotted men to freely cheat on their wives and live free of the conventional rules in today’s society. Also, smoking was cool back then so with cancer not nearly as much of an issue, feel free to light up a stogie! The world was at their feet and they enjoyed every minute of it. Draper was our leading man through this turn-back-the-clock dramatic hit.
