When a couple gets married, society has introduced a “norm” where the wife takes the husband’s last name. While many people go along with this tradition, there are those who opt out of taking their husband’s last name. One Twitter user, @_mercyful asked the question to her followers–wondering why women chose to not take their husband’s last name.
