Crotch Rocket Says: May 22nd, 2011 at 10:34 pm Up until the last century, a woman’s name changed when she was sold from one man (her father) to another (her husband) to reflect the change in ownership–just like any other slave throughout history. To continue that tradition is an insult to the women who fought for your freedom–and the men who gave it to you. That said, women keeping their names when marrying leaves a rather obvious problem: what name to give any children. Hyphenating, the usual feminist solution, only works for one generation before it’s ridiculously unmanageable. The only logical solution is for the kids to get the mother’s name–especially considering our society’s false paternity rate of 10-30% (depending on the study). Even unwed mothers rarely do that today, but it’s gradually gaining acceptance, and I suspect it’ll be the norm a century or two from now.
