00:00:15.620 Do you think the advice that you give to men is the type of advice that will fulfill their lives?

00:00:57.680 Let's not do shouting questions from there, please.
00:01:00.440 Allow these two to debate each other.
00:01:02.880 Okay, what's your question?
00:01:05.660 I mean, you don't really have much to answer,
00:01:08.640 so I don't know what else to ask you.
00:01:10.520 Do you think you're helping men by discouraging them
00:01:12.740 from entering fulfilling marriages?
00:01:15.700 What happens to men if they don't pay child support?
00:01:19.740 I mean...
00:01:20.400 What happens?
00:01:21.800 What happens, Anna?
00:01:23.720 How many men do you think get arrested?
00:01:25.740 I don't know what the number is.
00:01:26.860 But the idea that there's a huge number of men getting arrested for not doing what they're supposed to do
00:01:32.660 and take care of their children, it's not a huge issue.
00:01:37.940 What happens to men when they don't get child support?
00:01:39.380 Really, only 60% of child support payments get paid out.
00:01:43.380 You've got to allow her to interrogate you, not them.
00:01:45.640 You've got to stop yelling questions at her.
00:01:47.740 You can minimize men's problems all you want, 0.99
00:01:50.340 but I don't think you understand how privileged of a position you're in.
00:01:54.740 In what way? How am I privileged?
00:01:57.100 Men are the ones that are on the hook for child support.
00:01:59.640 Men are the ones that are on the hook for alimony. 1.00
00:02:01.780 It's easy for you to tell men to just take the risk when you're not in that position.
00:02:06.780 So are you asserting that men shouldn't pay child support following a divorce?
00:02:11.520 Do you believe that women should be financially responsible 100% after a divorce? 0.99
00:02:16.600 Feminists wanted to be equal. 1.00
00:02:18.320 So I say be equal.
00:02:19.660 If you guys want equality, 50-50 custody, no child support, no alimony, no special privileges.
00:02:26.300 Alimony is paid out in 10% of divorces.
00:02:29.500 It doesn't matter if you're part of the 10%. 0.66
00:02:30.680 It does matter because you make it seem like it's a widespread issue when it's only 10%.
00:02:36.000 The tender years doctrine is a sexist law against men.
00:02:39.700 That's sexist.
00:02:40.060 How is it sexist?
00:02:40.880 If a woman decided to forego a career, decided to be a stay-at-home mother, and the marriage 1.00
00:02:47.940 doesn't work out, she has no job, she has no income, so you think it's unfair to get 1.00
00:02:53.600 support from her ex-husband so she can raise the kids, so she can pay? 1.00
00:02:58.500 60% of kids under five have daycare.
00:03:01.920 Daycare is an option now.
00:03:03.540 You want it to be men. 0.94
00:03:04.520 Do you know how much daycare costs?
00:03:05.940 You want it to be men. 0.94
00:03:07.220 Here you have it.
00:03:07.420 Do you know how much daycare costs?
00:03:08.800 Do you think it's free?
00:03:09.380 You're not letting her answer.
00:03:10.060 Let her answer.
00:03:10.880 A lot of things are expensive, Anna.
00:03:15.060 That's not an answer.
00:03:16.360 Women have 85% of consumer spending. 1.00
00:03:19.180 Women spend money all the time. 1.00
00:03:20.420 You spend money on hair dye.
00:03:21.480 You spend money on Botox.
00:03:22.740 You spend money on the...
00:03:23.520 You should think about it.
00:03:28.400 I sure am.
00:03:35.460 You spend money all of the time.
00:03:38.920 So you wanted to be men.
00:03:40.760 And here it is, you're equal, pay for daycare.
