[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Women should be independent and make decisions for themselves. Their choices are their own. Unless they choose something I disagree with, like taking their husband’s surname, and then they’re antiquated, stupid, and succumbing the patriarchy. [/quote] Being a feminist doesn't mean agreeing with every choice women make. I wouldn't lecture a friend for changing her name, butthe reality is that this is something tgat's only expected from women, never from men, and unlike many other choices, a name change after marriage is only a thing because of a sexist tradition, not because it's practical.[/quote] I don't really care as long as we all have choices NOW. And we do. It is also practical, so I kept my maiden name as my middle name, so I have both.[/quote]
