In 2011, Jon told the Daily Mail he doesn't agree with the way women were treated in the era brought back to life in his hit show, Mad Men:
"Men ruled the roost and women played a subservient role [in the 1960s]. Working wives were a rarity, because their place was in the home, bringing up the kids. The women who did work were treated as second class citizens, because it was a male-dominated society. That was a fact of life then. But it wouldn't be tolerated today, and that's quite right in my book . . . People look back on those days through a thick veil of nostalgia, but life was hard if you were anything other than a rich, powerful, white male."
