Discussion
I will happily debate/discuss any subject with anyone but there is no need for insults about the subject of the discussion (if a person or persons) or the person you are discussing with. The people on here have differing opinions and that is a good thing as it should allow for a good discussion but once insults start flying around the discussion quickly goes off the subject. There really is no ...

Margaret, I know it is now a choice whether to include the obey vow. But that is only a fairly recent event as you yourself point out. I know also that some married women keep their father's surname (or double-barrel it with that of their husbands - some husbands even do the same) but again all this is fairly recent stuff.

I suggest you seek psychiatric help, Mrs C, I'm sure you will benefit from it.
For some reason (ahem!) a memory came to my mind of an incident way back in the late 1960s/early 1970s when an aunt of mine told me that her husband had to give his permission for her to have a hysterectomy. So whose womb was it?!!!!! Anyway, having checked to see if my memory was fabricating things or indeed that all this did indeed take place, I checked. And yep! It sure did more than ...
