Default Re: Mrs. Sexism

I know two married couples where the wife did not take her husband's name. That seemed to work fine until they had children. Legally, they still carry their maiden names, but both have dropped it from common usage. They're both stay-at-home mums, often involved with schooling, and they just got sick of explaining who they were to people because their kids have different surnames.
