I love this site too. I’m the same as the others – I don’t always comment if I don’t have something new to say, but I always look forward to reading. And I also feel like I’ve learned a lot from everyone on here. I quote my internet friends far too often! 🙂

Well,  I’m not in a long term relationship right now, but I very much intend on keeping my own name. Not so much because of the property angle – and I do totally understand those who take the husband’s name to feel more like a family and don’t think there is anything whatsoever wrong with that – but just because I am very connected to my last name. It’s always been a nickname for me (it’s a funny last name) and very much a part of my identity.

I can understand guys wanting their wife to have the same last name as them, but I’m with you fabelle, it shouldn’t be an assumption anymore, it should be a discussion.
