[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I hate that my wife kept her name. It's one thing I would change about her and our marriage if I could. It's embarrassing to me and makes me sad that we will never be able to send out Christmas cards from the (last name)[/quote]

Are you a dude? Do you have monogrammed towels? WTF?[/quote]

Haha point taken! I've never sent out christmas cards (yet), but it was just a tangible way of giving an example of not being the (last name) family .. instead we are (first name and first name)

Hope you get what I meant

My social milieu is about 50/50 keepers/takers. As for the Christmas cards, you write "Love, the Smith/Jones family." [/quote]

I have no problem with women keeping their names, but I absolutely see PP's point. My best friend kept her name and it really bothers her husband for that reason. As a kid I hated when my friends' moms had different last names...it was awkward  ("Thank you Mr. Williams and Mrs...I mean Miss Bridges?") and I just avoided saying their names [/quote]

To be honest (and I can be since this is an anonymous forum), I'd rather not send cards at all than send them from a Smith/Jones family

And if my wife ever corrected someone who called her Mrs. Smith instead of Mrs. Jones when our kids are named Smith ..  I'd feel pretty lame.[/quote]

Jesus Christ, the two previous posts are the ultimate in snowflakery. How do people like you manage to make it through life?[/quote]

By complaining on DCUM.

And any dude whose manhood is sufficiently challenged by his wife not changing her name to post about it on the internet didn't have much manhood to begin with.  [/quote]
