re: Women not changing last name after marriage

quote:

when a man keeps his last name after he gets married, i get the impression he's more committed to his old family (mommy and daddy) than the new family he just formed. just my opinion though i know the libs feel differently.

Amazing how a few letter changes can alter a sentence.

i believe that when you (man or woman) gets married, the new family you just formed becomes your number one priority.

Then maybe people should create a whole new last name when they get married, you know, to symbolize how committed you are to one another and detached from your previous family.

My sister kept her last name because our last name is fairly unique, and she didn't want to become one of a million Smiths.
