What if being single wasn’t a problem to be solved but a state of bliss? For some women, living without an “other half” is the key to being complete.  But even though more women than ever are single by choice, we live in a society that values couple-dom. Marriage and motherhood are still held up as the ultimate end goals. Single women are viewed with pity or worse, scorn. Living alone? Cue the lady jokes.  Yumi Stynes talks to women who are happy to be free from romantic relationships and whose lives are full to the brim. (R) This episode contains references to single, dating, relationships, friendships, couples, sex.
