Would you support universal basic income for women only?

I hear alot of worrying about couples not wanting to start a family because of financial stress.
I figure cutting women (and women only) a check every month would solve that. It'd also give them an option to stay home if they want.

Thoughts?

No, but I would consider some type of UBI for a single parent... regardless of sex of the parent and I for sure 100% support equal pay for women.

@Ontheroad And equal pay is what women get today for equal work.

@Spotpot I guess you believe what you wrote and that is exactly the problem, or a large part of it. It is true that in certain industries and in certain countries women of today earn closer to what men earn when doing the same job. However, globally and in spots and certain industries (globally) women are still far behind men in getting equal pay for equal work/job performance. In no country is there absolute parity.
