✨ Do you want to improve your IELTS writing?
A few hundred years ago, things were straightforward, when a man and a
woman
got married, the wife changed her
surname
to that of her
husband
's
name
. But nowadays they are matters of concern. I completely disagree with changing
woman
's
surname
, as I see that as a transfer of subservience from father to
husband
, and losing of women's identities to that of men's. In the internet age, all the work that the
woman
did under her previous
name
is not going to show up in google search anymore. If someone is trying to track her down for job opportunities with previous
name
,
then
it will be
tough time
Suggestion
a tough time
in finding her out as it
invloves
connect closely and often incriminatingly
involves
lots of verification. A
name
change
has lots of practical difficulties which
includes
Suggestion
include
changing in all government records, causing more
burdern
an onerous or difficult concern
burden
.
This
implicitly imposes her to lose her identity personally and
also
professionally. When it comes to marriage, one can
visibily
in a visible manner
visibly
see the
change
is imposed mainly on women. She is expected to relocate to her
husband
's place, leaving her family, job and everything behind. If a
woman
's refuses to take up the
change
, she will be considered as violating the tradition and not respecting the family and their culture. Women are expected to be communal, sacrificing their individual interests to the well-being of the family and having
husband
's
name
as
surname
can be seen as selfish and forcing them to be the
change
. It may seem easier to ask men to
change
their
surname
according to that of women, but it is always
invisble option
Suggestion
an invisible option
invisible option
and placing
burden
Suggestion
the burden
a burden
entirely on the women to take up the
change
.
Change
of
name
is solely
women's decision
Suggestion
a women's decision
and not of men's or their families.

Suggestion
ThFamily
should respect the women's individuality and should not run behind the tag of
ownership
Suggestion

.== People should consider marriage is all about connection of two hearts, not a
name
changing event.
