As a man, does taking your wife’s last name erase your family identity?

If you’re a man taking a woman’s last name.

No, obviously not. Only machos like the gentleman that answered that he wants to be the leader of the family will think that way. Those kind of people have been raised with misbeliefs that the man in the house rules.

That way of thinking is antiquitaed just as the belief that women belong behind the stove, should take care of children and should have the least education possible so that the man in the house can do as he pleases without the slightest hint of rebellion.

Taking someone's identity will NOT erase any identity at all. A person's identity remains with the person itself and not with a name or surname.

Yes, it clearly erases a man's family identity, but if the man's last name isn't nice, I don't think erasing his family identity is that important.

For those believing that "family identity" is just this very old idea of clans & alliances, yep I guess they won't like it lol. For the others, who care about family identity overall, it has a deeper meaning than just a name passed on, so giving it up won't endanger this identity.

Whoever i marry, she sill take my family name, that's how it works for me, because the man leads and the woman follows, plus the man is the head of the house...
