Unless you were married earlier than the 90s, I wouldn't really call that "bucking tradition" any time from, say, the mid-90s onwards.
If you really want to buck tradition, then don't get married - just live together, and have kids :-)
(After all, there's nothing more traditional than marriage, is there?)
- jedberg 3y agoIn the US, 80% of women still take their husband’s last name. But you hit on an important point — a lot of couples are just skipping marriage now. We went halfway there — we bought the house together years before we got married.
