I’m not sure if the article covers it, still reading, but one of the things they want to do to disenfranchise transfoks is to require the the name on your birth certificate matches you’re legal name in order to vote.
As most married women don’t change their name on their birth certificate when they take their husbands last name, they would not be able to vote either.
Interesting thing about that is that, while it’s still common practice, a lot of more left-leaning women did away with taking their husband’s name years ago
Yeah my wife and I just kept our name. Its funny because over the years we sorta wish we would have done the traditional thing as it would make a variety of things easier but now apparently its becoming a brilliant move.
yeah its more problematic for official stuff really. like being in the hospital. Its not much but like you tend to have to make it more clear your the spouse.
Long term, this seems like an effective way to end that custom. What person would go into marriage changing their name when they know this attitude is at play?
“We need Christian men leading the fight against abortion,” arguing that women’s suffrage was a mistake, and accusing Hawkins of emasculating her husband by being “busy jet-setting.”
This is only the first step. It will not stop until women are property.
If you don’t get married than your father will own you until he decides who you will marry.
Hey Americans: Don’t want to be oppressed or live in a fascist state? Immigrate to Canada! We’re hella friendly and open to people’s of all kinds, except MAGAs and Nazis and or maga-nazis
I hate pasting this url but it talks about actors who did and the first one was because of a requirment for the actor to have the same stage and legal name so don’t understand that but it was david tennant so maybe something with international that complicated it. https://www.buzzfeed.com/kristenharris1/celebrities-changed-legal-names-stage-names

Edit: The article does go into all of this.
Trans rights are human rights.

My wife did the same, but for unofficial stuff, she uses my last name as hers.

We got married ten years ago and she didn’t take my name. I’m very much cool with it, and it’s got easier over the years.
Left leaning women are also far less likely to get married to begin with.
The article actually points all of that out, it will be Republican women who mostly are disenfranchised by this.
In a sort of twisted way that could result in a blue wave if they disenfranchised ~half of their own voters and not the left.

It’s cute you think that’s not another right they’ll quickly take away from women as soon as they can.
Republicans destroy marriage with this one neat trick!
If they force women to change their names with marriage, women will simply stop getting married.
Oh you sweet summer child…

i had some ideas about this that i shared recently https://lemmy.world/post/25499276
Holy. Fucking. Shit. That’s bad. That’s oppressively stupid fucking bad.

If only it was that easy…
Hmm. You all raise a good point. As Canadians, I think we need to make it easier for Americans to immigrate here.
We need to experience and expertise and we need to learn how to expedite that to bring the right people here to help expand Canadas capabilities.
Canadians, how to we make this happen? I have zero knowledge how to make this happen.
You guys seem to have a very open asylum policy. Give it a few years and a lot of Americans might qualify without you doing anything else.
so anyone who changes their name? So like a whole bunch of hollywood. two birds one stone I guess from their view.
If it’s a legal name change. But I assume a lot of Hollywood names aren’t legally changed, but more similar to a pen name.
