Part 9/15:
The transcript digs into the history behind divorce laws, claiming that feminist movements and liberal academic institutions played substantial roles in pushing for no-fault divorce. The speaker emphasizes that this push started decades ago, citing California's reform in the late 1960s as a key turning point. It is argued that the law's evolution was driven by a desire to remove the need for proving fault, which, in the speaker’s view, has destabilized family structures.
