A message to pregnant women โ 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 youโre registering the baby ask yourself: why is the fatherโs surname more important than yours?

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 โ<fathers name="">dottir/sonโ 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

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?

Only 2. In Brazil and Portugal is at it follows:
โName, middle name, Mom's paternal surname, dad's paternal surnameโ
Take Joรฃo Pedro Sousa Sampaio
Joรฃo first name
Pedro middle name
Sousa (mother's paternal surname)
Sampaio (father's paternal surname)
He will go by Joรฃo 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 Eloรญsa Rizzeli Almeida marries Joรฃo, she will become Luana Eloรญsa Rizzeli Almeida Sampaio, or simply Luana Sampaio. They have a son together, his name is Josรฉ Carlos Almeida Sampaio and he will go by Josรฉ Sampaio.
In Spain and spanish speaking countries is name, dad's paternal surname, mom's paternal surname
Jorge Luis Gonzรกlez Rodrรญguez
Jorge first name
Luis middle name
Gonzรกlez paternal surname
Rodrรญguez maternal surname
He will go by Jorge Gonzรกlez
Now presume Jorge Gonzรกlez Rodrรญguez marries and has a child with Marรญa Duarte Aguirre
Their child will be Francisco Gonzรกlez 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.
