[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I didn't change my name for a variety of reasons (established in my career, its a piece of my personal identity, etc) and my DC has husband's last name. I just want to add: I hate it when married women who took their DHs last name grill me on why I kept mine. It's like they are baiting me into implying they have less important careers than mine or are not "woke." I honestly don't care if you took your DHs last name and, frankly, I tip my hat for all of the paperwork and administrative bullshit you had to endure. There's a case to be made either way and God Bless America for [b]letting us choose[/b]. [/quote] An interesting point because in some countries you can't choose. Maybe it's changed, but when I lived in Japan 20 years ago, upon marriage one spouse was required to change his/her name so the family would all have the same name. Of course 99% of the time it was the woman even though the law didn't specify.[/quote]
