A thought-provoking perspective emerges as a woman shares her views on why men should contemplate adopting their wives’ last names, offering several reasons behind her unconventional proposition.
In a widely circulated video, she points to the Bible, citing the instruction for a man to leave his parents and cleave to his wife, which she interprets as leaving behind all associations, including his surname.
She asserts that this is why men should consider adopting their wives' last names, although she acknowledges that such notions are often sidelined because they deviate from the customary narrative promoted by men.
Additionally, she states that while any woman who desires to take her husband’s last name is free to do so, she personally refrains from such a change, rejecting the notion of being considered a mere possession.
Responses to her viewpoint...

M expresses disbelief, commenting: “She might as well just come out and say she’s insane.”
Anthonia suggests a role reversal scenario, stating: “Why not tell your husband that you’re the head of the household and insist he adopts your last name since you married him.”
kaydeyofficial challenges the biblical interpretation, saying: “The Bible doesn’t mention anything about spouses exchanging last names; the oil and gas minister is here to interpret what she doesn’t understand.”
Nnayi dismisses the notion, asserting: “Nobody is engaging with this because we don’t follow such absurdity.”
Winifred expresses bewilderment, asking: “Which Bible is she referring to? What’s happening to people's comprehension skills?”
