[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I kept my maiden name because I was well established career-wise and my last name was part of my identity. Those reasons didn’t apply to my children.[/quote] +1, I have many publications in my name, so I wanted to keep it.[/quote] No one cares about that, the Obama and Clinton are more important and famous than you and took the last names. You are silly but more likely difficult to live with.[/quote] Not PP, but I also have pubs in my name. I'm a lot younger than Hillary and even Michelle. More women in my age cohort kept their name, particularly those in my field who entered academia and started their careers well before marriage. I'm actually fine with whatever women want to do re: last names, and no matter the reason; their choice.[/quote]
