Children taking their father's last name is something so standard I've barely ever given much thought to it. However, now that I'm thinking about it... I'm kind of angry. How is it that women carry a child in their bodies for 9 months and then physically birth them just so they can turn around and have their father's last name? Now that doesn't seem fair, does it?
It's okay if you don't agree with me, though, because the Italian court does and is ruling to change this prehistoric practice.
