[quote=Anonymous]My husband was willing to hyphenate our names for both of us (he was the one who brought it up), but I changed my name because I didn't have any particular attachment to my maiden name, and because it was easier. We WERE committed to having a "family name" that was shared with parents and children. I didn't want to be Ms Smith calling the school about Junior Jones. As for "killing his career", ha, shows what you know. In my field, it's a huge leg up. I know several men who have taken their wives' names (always in hyphenate, though). Equality between the sexes is actually seen as a selling point. I feel a little sorry for you, being stuck in the dark ages, professionally. [/quote]
