I got too much pride in my family to take a female's last name. I completely object...

 

[sn00pee]

I'd consider taking my wife's last name. I have no problem with it actually.

I have my mothers last name and there are plenty of males on my mother's side.
My father wanted me to get it changed to his (which I actually liked the idea of)
but since im 25, i dont feel like going through the painstaking process.

And on top of that, my kids better have my last name. She can name all the kids, but they better have my last name. I just hope she doesn'tcome up with names like Trig or Tractor.

Is this some type of Women Impowerment kick or something?

Oh yeah and where does the tradition come from?

 

[mytmouse76]

I think the woman takes the man's name and becomes his property and he gets control of anything she had like land or money.

Whats wrong with them talking about marriage at that age? Remember back in the day it was normal for people to get married younger that what theyare. Like 18 and 19. And don't forget also many people got together at like 13-16 and then went on to get married. But nowadays everyone thinks they aregoing to miss the sunrise if they find love early.

[ooiron manoo]

My girl once got bold and said she was thinking of keeping her name.

Me:

Her :"How about I hyphenate?"

Me:

Me: How about, I don't give you an engagement ring?

Her:

The history of marriage (in the west atleast) is pretty much a legal contract. Poor people didn't get married. The upper-class did, and it was pretty much for people to get their assets together and the man to get his lil' kingdom.Which is why your comment is true. Historically, it favors the male.

Good tradition

People live longer, and kids don't mature and 13-16 anymore.

Yeah as time went on, people stop handling business. Back in the day people were ready at 18 and 19. But I understand why that isn't the caseanymore for real. Those stats SUCK for people who want to get married.
