What does it mean when a woman chooses not to have children? 

Does this make her less of a woman? 

Will she be judged by society and her extended family? 

How do you cope with that if you don’t have kids? 

We’ll answer these questions and more in our child-free discussion.

In this episode, we recap Season One, where we talked about how women of different ages first learned about sex, how you meet people to date, and whether you should wax or use eye cream. We talked to widows of different ages and learned how they thrived after losing their mates. We heard from women who coped with feeling out of place and what it was like when their periods started – or stopped.

Season 2 highlights include a woman’s choice to be child-free, saving money (with financial expert Jean Chatzky), and the evolving role of women in music (with NPR music critic Ann Powers), and much more!
