Is a man saying "I divorce you" three times legitimate and fair to women? It's a Muslim tradition being debated both in India and Egypt. Or is the quickie divorce in fact a good thing for humanity? We hear from interested parties - Egyptian divorcee Abbie Naguib, and divorce lawyer Vandana Shah in India, who opposes the so-called Triple Talaq, a tradition of divorce that dates back in some countries to the dawn of Islam. We also hear from an expert on the global business of getting together and splitting up, Stephanie Coontz. She is director of research at the Council on Contemporary Families at Evergreen College in Washington State. She's also author of a book, Marriage: A History - How Love Conquered Marriage.
