Summary
Can we ever rid ourselves of the male gaze when making decisions about plastic surgery? Do we think about growing old positively or negatively? Who are our older role models and why are they important? Does the so called 'ticking time bomb of fertility' scare us? Are we making life decisions based on having kids?
In this episode we cover all of those questions and more. Follow us on IG and let us know if you have anything to add:
