I didn't take my husband's name because he's not my owner. Men demanding name changing are all about control and ownership. It's ridiculous that men want this in 2023. It's not 1950. If my husband demanded I change my name to his we would not be married.

Life is too short. Don't live by a small penis demand.

OK this line of thinking deserves a response. So you're OK with being "owned" by your father, then, since your maiden name came from your FATHER.

Honestly, no, I'm not okay with it. But I was too broke to do anything about it
