[quote=Anonymous]I'm sorry, I missed where these traditions are codified. Can you point me to them? Wait! They're not! As the PP said, traditions can be shed, reshaped or created to fit your family! Whew! Good thing! I think the PP's point related to hypocrisy than reshaping traditions. For example, I think that if the OP expected her man to get down on one knee, ask her father for permission to ask for her hand, etc. because it was "tradition" to do so it she would need to be open to him asking her to take her name because it was "traditional" as well. Now, the next series of poster are going to say that a name-change is more invasive than getting down on one knee. True. However, then the discussion focuses on how much effort is need to follow a tradition, not how important the tradition is to each person. If he does not feel like he is married to someone who will not share his name then it may be time for each person to find someone new. [/quote]
