 What do you think about marriage? 

The Daughter :

That's a crazy question. 

Why crazy? 

The Daughter :

I dunno. 

Why crazy? 

The Daughter :

It's just mad, isn't it? Marriage. 

What, so you want to 

be free and single? 

You want to sleep around? All right. 

The Daughter :

Well, that's not... 

No, it's fine if you do. 

That's who you are. 

The Daughter :

No, OK. Whatever. 

I'll answer you. Here we go. 

I think marriage is old-fashioned. 

It's like a relic from an age where 

there were boundaries. 

Whereas now, people can be whoever they decide they are. 

And you look at, like, A Father at a wedding. It's gross. 

One Man literally hands over Control 

of A Woman to another Man. 

It's a whole institution designed 

to make A Woman be with 

the same man forever 

and ever.
