[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Who cares? I’ve always thought that unless you give your kids your last name, not changing your name to your husband’s is just you preferring to keep your daddy’s name, not some righteous feminist act. Personally, I think surnames should pass through the female side, but as a society we are not even close to being there yet. So keep your name if you feel you must, but it’s ultimately still just the name of the MAN whose property you used to be…[/quote] Sure it’s an incremental change and not some “righteous feminist act,” but I still think there’s value in normalizing married, committed couples that do not share the same last name. [/quote] What’s the value, exactly? At the end of the day, names are arbitrary. Just a tool we use to distinguish one person from another. [/quote] So then it shouldn't matter of the name isn't changed or if the man takes the wife's surname[/quote]
