6. Elisabeth Moss
Elisabeth Moss also has a self-pleasure scene in Mad Men – in fact, it’s in the same episode as January Jones’! In it, Moss’s character Peggy is assigned to the campaign of a new weight loss product, the “Electrosizer.” When she tries it out, she realizes that it’s actually a pair of vibrating underwear. She struggles to explain this to the men at the ad agency, and only Don Draper understands what she’s getting at. He states bluntly, “It does the work of a man.” Later on the episode shows Peggy slowly reaching for the product while she’s in bed. Clearly she isn’t just using it for research any more. Moss’s portrayal is at once delicate and sensual.
