Time for Cross Examination! Our dive deep into the internet’s lawyers, relationship experts, podcasters, and hot-takers. Is any of the divorce information on social media useful, or is it all bad? James Sexton is here to find the signal in the noise.

For today’s cross examination: therapy is apparently bad for me, equal custody divorce is dangerous for kids, you cannot be attracted to other people while married, and the man's statement of "make me a list, I'm not a mind reader" is prohibited.

James’s facial expressions while watching the clips give away his thoughts to come.

I’m a divorce mediation lawyer, I only work the clients in mediation. They both come to my office and I charge a flat fee for the mediation and all of the paperwork. We talk about everything and at the end we have parenting plan, divorce paperwork. We talk about everything in order to get to the agreement, we follow the laws, everyone has to show up and talk. I have had a lot of clients get back together after we have met and talked about everything. If married couples actually talk to each other things can work out.

Definition and intention are key and important to talk about in relationships, just as much as they are in a courtroom.

I agree with a lot of what you say. I am often shocked at how therapists (and many women generally) are so patronizing and infantilizing to men.

@RossignolPizarroFamily-g9z 7 months ago

On the women vs men domestic chores argument: I think it should not matter how much the person earns, but how many hours they are working. Mr. Sexton's argument can be reduced to "your value in the household is how much your time is valued in the financial economy'", when I think he actually believes something closer to "when you enter a marriage you are trying to value each other's time equally". Could be wrong, but would be fascinated to see Mr. Sexton discuss this.

That first guy who thinks men shouldn't be in therapy doesn't realize what he's doing on YouTube is basically therapy adjacent.

I mean, a lot of therapy is just hearing your thoughts. Social media, whether you're producing or consuming it, is kind of like therapy, and the comment section is the feedback you're looking for.

That female lawyer is outside of her mind "why dosent he see what you see" she opened with "I am not a mind reader."

Thank you so much mr. Sexton for giving these amazing lawyer arguments I can share at home. My spouse sometimes thinks that I am telepathic and...wait for it...I am not

@Mike-ki7zt 8 months ago

Sexton completely and utterly strawmanned the female attorney (Kristin?) at the end. That means he actually agreed with her. If he really disagreed with her, he would've addressed the actual argument she made. He set himself up to disagree with her before he heard her argument. And then he had to prove himself right. She could've said, "Orgasms are great," and he would've found a way to disagree with that.

This first one... my partner has become so much more connected and understanding after starting therapy. I don't know what they talk about, but it is actively improving his outlook and actions in our relationship.

I think James missed the point of what the last attorney said. The issue isn’t about who is the stay at home spouse or who earns more. Is that one of the partners, usually a man, isn’t paying attention to what needs to be done or doing it, and just asks their partner who has been handling things up until then, to also tell them what needs to be done. The mental load comes in when one party needs to do their portion of the chores and then remind the other person to do theirs. It’s like dealing with a child that you constantly have to remind to do things. Also, earning more in a relationship does not mean you do less at home. In an average couple who lives together, the man will usually earn more however the two also tend to have similar jobs and work similar hours. And most couples don’t have huge income disparities, they’re usually $50k or less. That’s not enough to justify putting more responsibility on your spouse.

“Intimacy - into me you see”, is on par with “Don’t love your job, job your love”.

I love this series! Please keep them coming!

I think the first guy’s way of messaging is terrible. Like I am with James, where Therapy alone isn’t going to solve your problems, but proactively learning more about yourself and making changes to your life is what Therapy is all about.

😂 8:10 had me in stitches 🤣 you know it's good when ppl in the house ask "what are you listening to?" You'd think it was a stand up comedy"
