Isn’t it troublesome on paperwork to have differing last names in the same family? I even found an article saying that most Eastern European families use a singular last name when they come to the US, because differing last names really isn’t compatible with the US legal system.
Gendered last names fucking ruin this strategy
Can you explain?
Two eastern european chefs can have the same family name but different spelling of last names,
Oh, that’s really interesting and informative! Thanks for explaining it.

Ah I see. OP did specify that they’re in the US so hopefully this is not a problem for them.
I’m in the US and it is very much a problem for me and another trans person even in a state that protects trans rights

Ashley Mansymann.
I don’t see the problem - Ashley’s mother and sisters would have the same last name, right?
Yeah but they don’t have a problem with it
I’m sorry, I’m having trouble understanding the situation.
