Summary

Do you see marriage for the negotiated contract that it is, or do you see marriage as a purely spiritual union, devoid of any power dynamics or transactions?

I fear that after today's conversation, I may lose a lot of you.

0:32.5

Not because I've said anything that's awful, but because you're not going to like this conversation.

0:40.8

The reason I say you're not going to like this conversation is because if you are married or if you aspire to be married, this episode will be the equivalent of someone coming out of nowhere and kicking down the sand castle
