would you marry a chick that refuses to take your last name?

[$tatus $ymbol]

Seeing as some woman don't want to take tradition and take their husbands last name there shouldn't be rings either because that is also part oftradition.

Just gonna quote this nifty post from the other thread.

I'm tellin y'all, these women runnin a lot of these NTers

I never understood why women wouldn't want to take their husband'sast name. If we adhere to all the other traditions, one knee proposal, engagement ring, getting the families blessing etc. why not follow all the way through? It's a power thing, and I believe their is a correlation between not taking the husband's last name and the divorce rate.

^I agree with all that, minus the last sentence.
I get what you mean, but i dunno..

 

[VARNELL HILL]

in terms of the wife taking the husband's last name its most cultural, some can be religious.

And in this case...that culture would be...

English

I know it's not cultural to MY ancestry.

The legacy thing is the biggest BS ever cause if 99.99% people won't have a legacy after they die, only the few men will whether they have kids or not, Leonardo DiCaprio if he never has kids will still be Leo DiCaprio after he dies. Wilt Chamberlain, Jimmy Goldstein, Pony Ma, etc. The dudes talking about this don't have an empire to pass down to the kids anyways

I was just about to mention something like this. Always hear dudes that are doing nothing or have achieved nothing in life talking about "I need to pass down my legacy to my heirs" Not saying that everyone in here is like that, but the dudes most vocal and violent about it usually are.

It's like a lot of these people don't even know about Latinos who (outside of the US) have a completely different naming system where the woman never takes the husband's "last name" (putting in quotes cause everyone has 2 last names, one from their father and one from their mother) I'm not even going to get into how crazy Portuguese last names can get (even though most people use their paternal last name)

Does anyone actually know why we do this and where this practice came from in the first place?

Yeah I guess I have a pretty alternative view to this and to a lot of societal and cultural norms but the whole legacy and passing **** on. Come on, once you’re dead, ya dead . Just wasting livin time

We as in Americans nimwit. Maybe I should have said why is it commonplace in America. That better?

I mean, I personally know a dude who said he needs to pass on his family name; meanwhile dude is 28 and unemployable due to felonies for selling Xanax and DUIs, while all his parents/siblings are highly educated and make very good money. At this point I think his future generations are much better off without his legacy.

What if everybody did the Spanish thing and have both family names?

 

[VARNELL HILL]

Spanish names be long as ****

My mind was blown when I started looking up the full names of the Spanish dudes in the NBA

 

[pirateslaw]

I've never heard of regular people doing this, I guess I don't know enough people?
I only hear famous women keeping their last name.

The billions of Latino people throughout the world are just emasculated/abnormal and let women run them, according to some dudes in here.

I'm assuming it's similar in Spanish/Latino naming traditions, but in Portugal you can have 6 last names sometimes. 2 names from your dad, 2 names from your mom, and 2 names from your husband if you're a female

 

[late registrant]

Work with a dude that took his wife’s last name...

 

[VARNELL HILL]

2 names from your dad, 2 names from your mom, and 2 names from your husband if you're a female

aight that's OD

I know they hate filling out applications

You're the one who made the mistake yet im the nimwit, huh.

You writing "we," implying your culture takes the man's last name is the complete opposite to you stating that your "cultural ancestry" doesn't practice taking the man's last name. When you make a mistake, how about you own up to it instead of trying to dance around it.

Do you have actually have a response to the post tho?

The answer would still be the same.

No lie I knew a dude named

Sandeep Sandhu and his girlfriend’s name was Sandeep Sandhu

So she would be Sandeep Sandhu- Sandhu

I didn't dance around it ....I very clearly stated what I should have said.

My answer to the thread subject:

No.

However, another man's choice about this topic is non of my business. Unless it harms me or my properties, just do you.

 

[lobotomybeats]

I wouldn't care. Anyone that insists on their wife changing her name to theirs is super insecure.
