Re: This (long post)

[(Anonymous)]

I'm still not entirely sold on Peggy/Sousa but I really liked how they handled Sousa's character. The show/Peggy actively called him out on how his behavior was in a way just a different take on how Thompson and Dooley were treating her, and - and this is where he gets plus points from me - he took accepted her assessment and didn't get all mad and indignant about it. And when he asks Peggy out at the end of the last episode and she says no, he accepts it without complaining (even before she adds "well maybe some other day"). Sousa's not an angel free of the sexist ideas of his era, but I think he does genuinely respect Peggy as a person and is willing to learn from her.

You have a point (about him not denying his behavior or getting hostile after Peggy shoots him down)!

I feel like I should clarify that I don't think Sousa is scum of the earth or anything (I feel like he respects and trusts Peggy more than most as well), just, like you said, he isn't 'an angel free of sexism'. (I point this out because during the first episode I was thinking, "Oh, Sousa is so cute and perfect" and it took a little while for me to recognize that he had flaws like everyone else.)

I doubt I'll ever ship it because of their past (even though he could change!) and the fact that I'm already into Peggy/Angie, but with some growth it could happen in canon.
