Would you marry a woman who wouldn't take your last name? - Answers from yahoo answer

[Psyr]

Question I asked from yahoo answers:

Seems like some chicks these days don't accept the guy's last name so they stick with their own last name. Others seem to go with both, like let's say her last name is "Smith," and my last name is "Jackson," she'll go with "Jackson-Smith."

Would you marry a girl who doesn't want your last name only? Personally, I wouldn't. I'm 21 and already planned if my future wife doesn't accept my last name, she's not worthy enough to be married to me.

Look at the answers there. This question was inspired by a thread earlier on yesterday on the misc. Some guy made a thread saying he wouldn't marry the girl if she don't take his last name. Honestly, I agree with him.

Your ancestors are all collectively saying 'Son, I am dissapoint'

Brb if you have a daughter the "legacy" dies anyways.

Most people are fuarks who don't accomplish anything work historically recognizing so it would be pointless for their name to be passed on.

Up to her for me. In Islam, the woman keeps her maiden name even after marriage. My mom still has her maiden name in all official documents.

hahaha feminism at its worst. All those girls are probably partially retarded too

[madsmith]

[matw]

lmao, soon liberals will push for the man to take the woman's surname..

[Rebounds45]

Isn't different in different cultures? My mum still keeps her maiden name.

I actually agree that it's a tradition founded on gender inequality, which I am against.

Hybrid surnames are inconsiderate towards the children though. Let's hyphenate our names because as a strong and independent woman my name is important, but my kid won't have that option because there'll be one hyphen already.

Not sure what the solution is when two people who want to keep their names get married. I guess they should keep their own.

[RunThenRunMore]

lol nope.

[Flairinho]

she can take both idc
most important thing is that my children will get my name 4 shooo

I actually agree that it's a tradition founded on gender inequality, which I am against.

Hybrid surnames are selfish though - not for the people involved but the children saddled with them. Let's hyphenate our names because as a strong and independent woman my name is important, but my kid won't be able to do that because there'll be one hyphen in his or her name already.

Not sure what the solution is when two people who want to keep their names get married. I guess they could either pick a new name to share or keep their own.

I legally have a hyphenated name, never liked it. growing up it felt different to others that had just one surname. and having to explain what a hyphenated name is all the time was annoying (pretty much advertised that my parents split up/divorced). usually just go with one of them now, but it puts me in a difficult position because my father gets mad/jealous when I just use one of my surnames. most people just know me by one surname now though.

I did. My wife didn't want to take my name (and I see why, it was a kind of lame name). We didn't want to hyphenate, we weren't sure what name to use for our kids and I sure as hell wasn't gonna take hers.

So we both decided to pick a new name together and I changed mine by deed poll. Then she took that new name when we married. Got to pick a badass name. Now when I tell people my name they're all like "wow, thats awesome". I swear most of my success is from having a strong name now.

[PetWussy]

wont marry that bish

[Phaze2]

yahoo answers is packed with feminist, fake chicks, and beta *******s.

[Idkbrah]

Lol at getting married. 50 years ago id be down, but bishes are out of hand these days.

[conceptions]

I like my last name.

I'd hope I'd be happy to take my husband's name, but if it isn't as good as mine... and I don't like the idea of giving up part of my identity like that.

There have been studies that suggest that there's some truth in this.


What was your lame (former) last name, out of curiosity?

[pieceofdebri79]

I really wouldn't even ask her to, to be honest. Who cares. Just a label (no hippie)

[AndreSoCal]

No.

[liftasaurus]

Why does it matter if she keeps her own? It's only a bunch of annoying errands if she chooses to do it for her and has no meaning. You should only care about the children, and they should have the man's surname.

[GruffalosUnited]

Curious why some guys are all about passing their last name down. Why does it matter?

[YouTickledBro]

My family is full of alpha, facially aesthetic, and financially well off males. If I had a son I would expect he has my last name. Wife or daughter I dont give a chit about

I like my last name ? and me taking a girls last name is like she becomes the "boss" of me.
