In the 13 years since I got married and hyphenated my last name, I’ve been told literally hundreds of times by men that I “must hate men” because I didn’t completely remove my last name and use only my husband’s.

I mentioned this in comment in a different sub (it was a relevant thread) and I have a guy absolutely losing his mind about how I’m just “making this up for attention.” What?? To be honest, I’m kind of surprised even the most dedicated misogynist would try to deny there are millions of men out there who are offended when women hyphenate or keep their last names after marriage. I really thought it was just common public knowledge that there are a lot of men who get wildly offended at this? Like to the point of rage so explosive it seems violent?

I certainly know I’m not alone; how many of you have experienced this?
