[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I didn’t change my name, honestly it seems antiquated to me.

If anything, I regret not giving my daughters my name or at least a double last name  name- (not hyphenated)

I’m tired of living in a patriarchy, can you tell?[/quote]

Sad for you and family[/quote]

You mean you feel sorry for how someone else feels about society.  So strange.  It's like me feeling sorry for you to choose misogyny - I don't.  I'm confused that people like you still exist, but I don't pity you.  You made your choices in life, you live with them.  Same with PP - she decided not to give her kids her name - now she lives with that.  No pity for either of you from me.

OP, I have a live and let live mentality.  I didn't change my name and I gave my kids DH's surname.  We discussed it and decided to do this mutually.  Dh suggested I give girls my name and boys his - I responded with - 'no one ever questions who the mom is, we'll give all our kids your name'.  I don't regret our decision.  It's just a name.

Now if DH had an awesome name, like 'God' I would have changed my name in two shakes of a lambs tail.[/quote]
