Summary

In this Episode of Bridechilla Katrina from thefeministbride.com and I talk about the reasons women cite for taking their spouse’s surname: some like the tradition of it, and others find it romantic. In some cases, it’s more important to their husbands, and some feel it will be more convenient once they have children. Some women even argue, counterintuitively, that taking their husband’s name is a feminist choice. I know that this episode will empower you to make the choice that is right for you.
