To the Contrary, season 22 episode 2, explores a variety of topics starting with a discussion on Plan B, and the controversy surrounding its availability in pharmacies. The panel debates issues related to whether Plan B should be sold over the counter to women under the age of 18 without a prescription, and how this could impact the rate of abortions.

Next, the panel interviews Susan Patton, the author of "Marry Smart," who offers unconventional advice to young women on how to find a husband while they are in college. The author suggests that women should prioritize finding a husband during college as a priority as opposed to focusing solely on their career goals. The panel reacts to how young women perceive this advice and the response it has received in the media.

Finally, the episode concludes with a discussion on living alone and whether it is a better approach for adult women to take in order to maintain their independence. The panel evaluates the pros and cons of living alone, questioning whether it isolates individuals or helps them to gain a sense of empowerment. They also debate whether there is an age limit on living alone and whether there is a difference between doing so out of necessity versus choice.

Overall, the episode addresses a range of topics that are relevant to women's issues today. From reproductive health to finding a spouse and independence in adulthood, the panel navigates different sides of complex issues and encourages viewers to engage in their own critical thinking on the topics.
