I just think period pieces walk a fine line between depicting or subverting beliefs of the era and endorsing them. Generally speaking, the show has made the characters conservative but the narrative progressive (see people dismissing Molly in S1, but she's of course right all along, or Reagan spouting good ol' boy reassurance and Lou shooting him down). I don't actually believe that Hawley is a sexist pigdog or anything; I think the storytelling failed and fell on the side of endorsement, conscious or otherwise, in a way that it didn't in previous nine episodes and in season 1. I can see how people might feel otherwise, but it left a bad taste in my mouth.
