Don gets away with the things he does because he has a preternatural gift for creating emotional connections between consumers and products and he found a way to use that gift well. This makes a lot of money for his employers and clients. That he is handsome no doubt helped, but he’s also the golden goose creatively and guys like Mathis ain’t.

I get that you might think Mathis' remark is correct but it isn't. So it's not insightful at all, the only thing correct in the comentary is that he is vain & insecure. That doesn't make him 'just' handsome. That's a terrible read of 7 seasons of Mad Men

The comments here are taking the word "handsome" a bit too literally. It's not that Don worries he's succeeded on looks alone, but that his whole enterprise is based on superficial charm and that he hasn't actually done anything of value. He ruminates on this constantly, like in season 3 with the hitchhikers when he hallucinates his father telling him his job is to "grow bullshit". Even the beatniks in season 1 who he famously dismisses tell him he "invents want" and represents everything wrong with capitalism, and deep down he does ruminate on this. He derives all his identity and self-worth from his career while being flagrantly dishonest in his personal life, but his fear is whether his career, too (and hence his whole identity) is itself inherently dishonest. It all started with him taking another man's name after all.

Well I didn't see the episode but if he asked Don for advice Don of course is going to suggest that have worked for him without realizing they won't work for everyone it's like Joan sometimes gives Peggy advise that doesn't really apply because she's more brains than beauty. That guy just got a taste what millions of women have endured historically too though failing to appeal to the sexual desire of someone in power and having to apologize for it. Don's being handsome works against him sometimes because other men like that one may resent or envy him and some women think him arrogant. Maybe that guy just couldn't read a rude and didn't know when humour was inappropriate there is such a thing as comedic timing.

The good old "he's just getting all the chicks because he's tall!" ego defence : ) It gives you a perfect excuse... until you meet someone who's shorter than you, and still successful with women. And then you need another solution for your cognitive dissonance ("ooh, it must be the money" - until you meet someone... etc., all your life). There are plenty of people as handsome as Don, who couldn't pull the same stuff as Don in a million years. Don figured his way out of multiple seemingly terminal and insurmountable situations where his looks couldn't help him one bit. Of course handsomeness works to his advantage, but there have been quite a few highly charismatic people in the history who didn't have the looks. (A certain German leader comes to mind, for a start :)

All the bald, short, ugly guys on here be totally in agreement. Truth is, looks may get you noticed when you walk in the room, but if you ain't got the smarts and personality to follow through, you won't make it through the first meeting. Everyone knows the handsome dimwit and they never succeed, unless it's at modelling. Even actors need a degree of intelligence and talent. Truth is, if you're an ugly failure, it's not because you're ugly.

"You're just handsome" is another version of "you're just rich". Everybody judges you once you've made it. Nobody cares about your struggles or even believes you had them. They all think they should be in your shoes. None of the copywriters on the show could've made the choices Don made. Even the partners struggle to understand him. Sure, it's a TV show and drama is necessary, but in the real world iconoclasts and trailblazers are often disregarded. But most people watching the show, or this clip, are not iconoclasts or trailblazers, so it's certainly easier to agree with Mathis's point of view. And he's not entirely wrong - but even Don's handsomeness is something that's very rehearsed. He intentionally TRIES to look good because he understands how important image is.

You can't blame Don for taking advantage of all of the attributes he has. It helps to be handsome but there are a lot of homely (men and women) who succeed and plenty of pretty guys and girls who never make it. If you're not conventionally attractive it doesn't help at all being envious of those who are - they've got their own set of problems.

Mathis was right. Don is not totally devoid of character, but he's oblivious to how much his looks play a part in his charisma. Mathis asks Don to be there to smooth things over but insists Mathis should do it himself. Fair play. But then Don just goes into stories of times he totally said the coolest thing ever and everyone clapped. Because Don could never do something genuine, it always has to be some Cool Guy maneuver. And he refuses to explain why apologizing is not an option, which is what Mathis wanted to do. Mathis probably should have gone with the soap trick, but I think the point is that Don can't drop the Cool Guy facade for a second, even when he's helping someone who doesn't play pretend 24/7 and is actually genuine. Even that soap trick is unnecessary Cool Guy antics, but it was the better option.
