Marriage and names
January 16, 2007
“A 2004 Harvard University study found that the number of college-educated women who kept their surnames upon marriage rose from about 3 percent in 1975 to nearly 20 percent in 2001.”
Quote from this article: What’s in a name?
This article and the study done by Harvard only serves to make people around here look more backward. Sometimes, I really think it is 1950 around here… It is not even unusual that I chose to keep my name but people around here usually ask at least three times if Brian and I are married simply because we have different last names - even after we say we are married. That’s incredibly redundant and stupid, I think.
