Because I want to cut off the relationship with my parents. They have never treated me as their daughter. When I got sick with my vagina (actually a neurological, non-communicable disease), my biological mother questioned whether I had let many dirty men use my vagina. And my biological father did something much worse. I hate them as well as my family name.
Of course there's no other choice for me. I see marriage as becoming one with each other in every way. Therefore how can I completely and freely give myself if I don't take his name?
So don't do it then. Don't take other people's opinions on how to live your own life. They don't have to live with the decision; you do. So do what is right for you.
It depends. If she has a noble surname. Or if one or the other has an embarrassing last name. If a guys last name was Butts, and hers was Hawk. Wouldn't the guy want to change his name instead.

I want it so much but it's illegal in China.

I would. There's no point in getting married if not...

In my country there is no such stupidity. If I were a woman I would not, and if I have a gringa girlfriend, I prefer that she keep her last name.
Personally I would, but if I were you, no!! Just do what you want, it's no biggie :)

I'm probably never gonna get married, so I won't ever be taking anyone's name. I'm not sure I would anyway, I like my last name
It's a free country. It's also your name, and no one else will have to live with it like you will.
Do what feels right to you.
With the way am seeing it women would start turning against men and challenging men
Men our world is slowly dieing away
Smh
Yes, I plan on taking his last name when I get married.
It depends, I want me and my husband to have the same last name so we would probably just decide on which one we like better
This is something I've been thinking about and quite indecisive about it. I'd like to think I'd keep my surname so no
How about hyphening parts of your last names? For some it doesn't really work but maybe.
Hyphenating works for me 👍🏾
Maybe you can combine your full name with his last name?
That's a compromise I'm willing to do
Only if his last name is better then mine haha
I really like my last name, soo yeah, if his fits better yeah why not
I don't really see a point in doing that. Personally I wouldn't.
It really doesn't matter, so do what seems right for your situation.
I know some people who hyphenate their maiden name with their married name.
No, he can take my name if he wants though. I`m very proud of my surname, and I don't want that to be changed.
