Tubes &amp; tantrums. Safiyyah (27) and Katya (53) don’t want kids, and they’ve made sure of it. We talked about how a Reddit thread lead to Safiyyah getting her tubes removed at 25. We talked about Katya getting a hysterectomy at 30. They’ve both been living their best lives ever since.We talked about how some mums don’t look like they&apos;re having fun, familial, societal and gendered pressure especially  as Black and Latina women, children being seen as an accomplishment, and remixing what a family looks like. Also, how choices are structural and political. Also, heteronormativity and capitalism and dating and dying alone and not hating kids. Enjoy and welcome to season 4!!
