I am surprised at how many ppl online seem to not care. Feminism really has caused a generation of weak men
Guess I'm weak I literally don't care. It's just fukking letters.

I don't care about legacy or carrying on my name sake. Your last name is just letters to me.

Wanting kids or not agreeing to a Prenup is a deal breaker for me.

My wife gladly took my name but I understand if someone and their girl negotiate hyphenation. I personally would not play her intentionally keeping her maiden name.

If she was famous and had a brand I would still ask for a legal change but she could use her old name in public.

Interesting, off all the married Black women my wife and I know, almost every single one with a Black husband took their husband's name regardless of education, income, etc.

Like 50%+ of the Black women we know that married non-Black men kept their maiden name. A lot of White couples we know have the same deal with the wife keeping her surname.

White partners are easier to walk over in large, it is what it is.

My wife made her maiden last name her middle name, and took my last name. Which was perfectly fine with me.

If she was an only child or only had sisters, I would be fine with her hyphenating her last name for the sake her father's legacy. Outside of that, I would not marry her. My children would only have my last name no matter what though. She would not destroy my legacy in favor of her father's.

Wouldn’t your legacy be your children though?

My statement about my legacy was only about my children. My statement about her father's legacy, was about his own children if he did not have a son to carry on his family name.

Re-read this again: My children would only have my last name no matter what though. She would not destroy my legacy in favor of her father's.

Leave her.

Im the man of the house, the ruler, the emperor. If she can't bow to that she's out the door.

My mom treats my dad like an ottoman king and they’ve been married for 43 years. When I was a kid, I didn’t get it but I understand as a 40 year old man. I have to rule over my castle and that means leading/stiring the ship. If you don’t like it, I hope you can swim
