A message to pregnant women — please give the baby your surname.
— Dr Charlotte Proudman (@DrProudman) August 9, 2023
You carried a baby for 9 months, gave birth, and will be responsible for that child for the rest of your life. When you’re registering the baby ask yourself: why is the father’s surname more important than yours?
Context
Drama
OP continues dunking on the scrotes:
Based
One day Proudman will put all the disgusting scrotes in concentration camps. Im counting down the days
The point is to make the father feel responsible for the child
That you think this is necessary says volumes about you and men in general.
Generally speaking, if a cultural practice has been around forever, it's best to exhibit some humility about it rather than assuming you know better than everyone who came before you.
The point is everyone knows the child is the mother's when she carried it in her body. That's why they take the father's surname. This whole "I carried the baby so it should have my name" is petty and childish
Yes, and that appropriates ownership of reproduction and property to the man. You could have a system like Iceland where everyone is called “<fathers name="">dottir/son” but substitute the mothers name instead. But that would define a matriarchal society which the men don't want.</fathers>
If you're a good Dad/parent your connection should be obvious enough without the need to have your kids named after you.
Why would you take it willingly? It's an antiquated tradition
Because her husband is presumably worth his salt and wouldn't have married her if she's going to be petty enough to go against tradition. Marriage IS tradition, that's the whole point of it.
Not willingly madam, you were coerced into taking his name by the Patriarchy.
The Patriarchy is you telling this woman she doesn't know her own mind.
That's wrong. I am a feminist. As such, I'm telling this woman she doesn't know her own mind. What her mind should be telling her is that her husband oppressed her into taking his name. He must have done. Otherwise she wouldn't have taken it.
You can tell a male feminist by his hairline
They won't be happy till everybody hates everybody.
Your husband is a loser

She's actually crazy. I truly believe she hates scrotes. Even with the Johnny Depp and Amber heard drama she was seething that Amber got dragged by everyone and believed she did nothing wrong.
She also handles domestic abuse cases, so its over for whatever man gets assigned her as a judge lmao

I've always said that anyone who defends Amber Heard is one of three things:
a simp who would love a crumb
a brainless, naive r-slur
someone with a personality disorder who sees nothing wrong with Amber's behavior and uses it to justify their own terrible behavior
RIP poor, hapless scrotes

Ovarrit, Spinster, and associated groomercords and chats RAGED against their members who didn't agree that Amber was a poor helpless victim of the scrotacracy hate machine, and because their userbase is full absolute wimps, the most of the dissenters were like
most shifted to
"both are AWFUL people? Ok? But I hereby recognize the original sin of scrotery present in the male man ohnny depp and I do not mean to diminish that. please don't ban me Anyway, we should never talk about this again!"
a very few of them were like "frick you, women can be evil abusers too, stop infantilizing women if you really believe in equality" ~and then i got banned and spent a LOT more time here XD~
They want to be girlbosses but they also want to be hapless & pure victims in every bad situation, like poorly written women in a 19th century novel 🙄

i didn't check to see if i was permabanned though i just got mad and left
I was already pissed at them though so I probably took a slightly aggressive tone (didn't cuss anyone out tho lol)
fricking radfem community has women discuss semi-openly that they think their gf commits "male violence" at them for watching mysognistic tv which feels like "a betrayal" and then come up with excuses for the batshit insane meltdown and accusations it triggered
That, and to honor insane lesbian domestic violence statistics, is why i made this emoji

Allowing women into academia was almost as r-slurred as letting them vote. Once a foid gets a PhD, she won't stop over-sharing her r-slurred opinions (believing her title to be proof of their indisputable fact) until the day she dies. Female historians and sociologists are probably the worst offenders.
Yes, b-word, the "mansplaining" neurodivergent shut-in on twitter genuinely does know more about the trade policy of Stuart England than you do and just wants to share his interest.

I've wondered this. Basically every second generation !latinx seems to have two last names... do third generation ones have four? What about fourth generation?
Jump in the discussion.

Only 2. In Brazil and Portugal is at it follows:
“Name, middle name, Mom's paternal surname, dad's paternal surname”
Take João Pedro Sousa Sampaio
João first name
Pedro middle name
Sousa (mother's paternal surname)
Sampaio (father's paternal surname)
He will go by João Sampaio for most daily affairs, always the last surname. Married women typically add their husbands surname at the end and go by those surnames. For instance Luana Eloísa Rizzeli Almeida marries João, she will become Luana Eloísa Rizzeli Almeida Sampaio, or simply Luana Sampaio. They have a son together, his name is José Carlos Almeida Sampaio and he will go by José Sampaio.
In Spain and spanish speaking countries is name, dad's paternal surname, mom's paternal surname
Jorge Luis González Rodríguez
Jorge first name
Luis middle name
González paternal surname
Rodríguez maternal surname
He will go by Jorge González
Now presume Jorge González Rodríguez marries and has a child with María Duarte Aguirre
Their child will be Francisco González Duarte.
In both cases it is always the paternal surnames of both your parents the surnames that are passed on to you, the maternal surnames die off with you.

Lmao, you could be Paranaense, it wouldn't be out of place here to find a “Pedro Luiz Almeida Banovski”, though most poles descendants I know have both polish surnames. And your case is pretty much my case, German maternal surname many people misspell followed by Spanish paternal surname.

I was confused about everything until I read this. It was my understanding that most burgers choose to pick on surname at marriage and then both keep that surname. So then I was thinking why these tweets are bitching about insisting the "mother's" surname when I thought it would just match the father's surname.
Then it dawned on me that these b-words 1) aren't married, and never will be 2) are insane 3) made me waste my time because I had a reasonable assumption about how society operated and they talk as if what they're doing is the norm (it isn't)

I'm confused, when does this happen?
If you're not married, the mother gives her baby her last name.
If you're married, the mother gives her baby her last name (which is most of the time the same last name as the father).

No email address required.
It's common in America (and I think Britain) when a man and a woman get married the women takes the husband last name and that last name ends up being the name of the child. The OP is the original tweet is saying that this is a patriarchical tradation and should be stopped. That is, woman should stop taking the last name of husbands and the baby should have the same last name as the mother.

I am aware of the taking the name tradition lmao.
But that's not what she's saying. She's telling mothers to give their baby their last name. Which is already happening.
If they meant to say "stop taking your man's name".... then maybe they should say that?
