[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Stop it with the middle name business. It doesn’t count as some kind of feminist statement. No one ever knows or cares what your middle name is u less you are a high school year book editor. [/quote]

I did not do this personally (my last name as a middle name for my children), but I'm guessing they didn't do it as a feminist statement or because they care about anyone else's approval. Get down off your high horse.

What I do not get are people like OP or PP who feel the need to chime in about this choice.  How does it affect you in any way?  Why do you care so much that you come on here and snipe?  Suggests some issue with you that you need to resolve.

NP, but it really doesn't.  I think it's stupid when families have different last names for everyone because mom kept hers, dad kept his, and then they just made up new ones for the kids.  I'm allowed to have that opinion.  It doesn't speak to any sort of issue that I need to resolve.  I just think people who try to make a big statement with their names are dumb.  At the same time I am perfectly happy with my own life.  Do you really not understand how that can work?[/quote]
