One of the telltale signs of the escalating emasculation of mainstream American culture has been the trend of wives keeping their maiden names, either in whole or in ridiculous hyphenation. And then selfishly passing on this matronymic abomination to their children. Men relinquish so much autonomy and prerogative to pursue their natural male desires when they get married that it’s the ultimate insult to their dignity to have to throw back the one measly bone of their wives taking their family name. The maiden married name racket is like the ultimate shit test — accede to your wife’s feminist posturing and you will be tarred with the beta brush every day of your life you are married to her.
The irony is that the maiden name is the wife’s father’s name. When a woman keeps her last name in marriage, she’s keeping another man’s name, just not her husband’s. Even women with three generations worth of hyphenated last names are hauling around the history of the male ancestors in their families. The patriarchy that these “enlightened” women are supposedly fighting against lives on.
Which brings us to the first ever Beta Of The Year Award.
Check out this guy who sued the state of California to take his wife’s surname in marriage.
All Michael Buday wanted to do was take the last name of his wife, Diana Bijon, when they married.
But it took two years, a lawsuit alleging sex discrimination and a change in California law before he picked up his new drivers license in the name of Michael Bijon on Monday.
“It was personal. I feel much closer to (Diana’s) father than I do mine. She asked me to take her name and I thought it would be very simple. I never imagined the state would make it so difficult,” Michael Bijon, 31, told reporters.
This guy wins the coveted BOTY trophy (the trophy is a man tucking his junk between his legs). What a bravura performance! Take a curtsy, King Of All Betas.
Look how proud he is of his self-castration:

she fucks him with her clit.
And what does this champion of women’s lib do for a living?
After months of frustration, the Los Angeles computer programmer and his ER nurse wife Diana, 29, took their problem to the American Civil Liberties Union of Southern California.
He may look alpha but it’s the inside nerd that counts. He must feel so grateful for getting laid. I wonder how many other conditions he had to abide before she consented to marry him?
“Women have fought for so long for equal rights and it feels like this is part of that fight,” said Diana Bijon.
Blah blah fucking blah. Could you imagine being shackled for life to this shrike? Last thing any man wants in a wife is an ideological axe grinder.
“I am really, really proud of him. Not many men would do this,” she said.
That’s true. Not many men would do that. Good thing you married a quisling bitchboy. Prep the divorce papers.
“This disposes of the rule in California that the male surname is the marital name to the same trash bin where dowries were once tossed out,” said Mark Rosenbaum, legal director of the Southern California chapter of the ACLU.
When future generations of dysfunctional feral kids in a post-apocalyptic third-worldicized USA ask why men stopped getting married and the institution fell into utter disrepute you can point them to quotes like this. Something these self-appointed commissars of culture never seem to grasp:
Maxim #27: You have to make marriage an attractive alternative for MEN — not women — if you want the institution to thrive.
Here’s the deal: If your wife truly loves you as the rock solid man you are, and not the beaten down betaboy she imagines she wants, she’ll be happy to take your name because she’ll understand and appreciate how much you sacrifice as a man when getting married. If she’s not on board with the name change, then like a ballcutting canary in the coal mine warning you of danger you can bet you’ll be begging for sex once a month.
In a second interview soon to be published, King Of All Betas had this to say:
– he will pee sitting so that he can identify with the urinary oppression of women.
– his dog will be named “Cat”.
– he will wear pink ribbons and march in every women’s rights parade in the country and donate thousands of dollars to every women’s cause under the sun. Then he will be diagnosed with prostate cancer.
– he will give any future sons girl’s names and his daughters boy’s names. He will force his son to play with Barbies and teach his five year old daughter safe sex.
– he will wear an empathy belly when his wife is pregnant. Shit, he’ll wear it when she’s constipated.
– he will ask permission to cum. He will then say “Are you sure?” each time permission is granted. He will say “Sorry” when he gets a little on the bedsheet. He will beg forgiveness if it hits her in the face.
– his wife likes golden showers. He is the mouth toilet.
– he will apologize for walking in on his wife fucking me.
– I will tell him to shut up and make me a sammich.
– when she inevitably divorces his beta ass he’ll cry so hard that he hyperventilates himself to death.
The only reason this guy isn’t demoted to omega status is because he managed to get married, and to a decently attractive woman. But he’s a great example of how you can’t judge male betaness primarily by looks like you can judge female betaness. If you showed me pictures of two random men and asked me to guess which of the two was the beta and all I knew about them was that one was ugly and the other was a good-looking computer programmer who took his wife’s name in marriage, I’d choose the programmer as the more likely candidate for betaness.
Recap
Don’t get married.
If you do, insist your wife takes your name.
If she refuses, don’t marry her. She failed the litmus test.
Better yet, just don’t get married.

If you do, insist your wife takes your name.
Never insist that she take your last name.
She does not have to follow that particular tradition. Nor do you need to follow other traditions, like having a wedding, buying her a ring or getting married.
If she openly states, “I absolutely want to take my man’s last name”, then, you know that you are onto something.

It becomes bad when the woman bucks the tradition in spite of the man, i.e. because she is famous and doesn’t want to hurt her career, has a feminist agenda, etc.

I think in this man’s case changing his name was a shot at his father – he says he feels closer to his wife’s father than to his own. Seems to be major hostility there. As for his wife interpreting it as a feminist gesture, that’s her view, and clearly not his.
So perhaps he isn’t a beta at all, but an angry alpha taking potshots at a father who wasn’t really a father. I’ve actually known quite a few younger men like that in my office, though none of them went as far as this in expressing it. Take heed, fathers…But since his wife isn’t paying attention to what he says, they may well be headed for divorce some day, as you say.
I decided years ago, when trying to work this one out, that since a woman always knows that her children are hers (barring bizarre swappings in the nursery), it is a legitimate male privilege to be able to claim them publicly as his too, with his name. And further, if a woman wants to feel as if she’s part of the same family, she ought to change her own name.
But I don’t see anything wrong with using your original surname in professional circles, if you’ve already established yourself under that name.

Great point about the wife receiving her name from a male at some point. Since each child has about a 50-50 chance of being male and able to carry on the family name, a totally patrilineal system is as good as any to proportionately propagate surnames. As would a totally matrilineal one.
The Chinese system also works, though, where no one changes their name but the children take the father’s. Minor quibble with Hope: there are three or so bisyllabic surnames that are quite common (Si ma, O yang).

There may be a lot of wimpy computer programmer types out there. Definitely a stereotype though.
I’m a “developer” by trade (though also a graphic designer), but I doubt that women would call me wimpy. I’m not whining for sex, and in no way would I take my (future) wife’s last name.
In Iceland, its all patronymic, but not really a true last name. If I was Icelandic (or Nordic) I’d be Cobiashi Donaldson and my sister would be CobiashisSister Donaldsdottir. But my children would then be Son Cobiashisson, Daughter Cobiashisdottir.
As long as the male doesn’t have the same name as the father (Donald Donaldson) then the last name doesn’t continue on past the immediate next generation. So everyone in Iceland has a definite middle name so that you can tell all the Donaldsons and Bjornsons apart.

Although you’re right about the guy on a sociological level, this strikes a blow for men’s equality from a legal standpoint. Many many US laws benefit women.
By forcing the court’s hand on this one, the guy could be setting precedent. Meaning…what’s good for the goose is now good for the gander. As such, maybe a legal argument can be made as to why women do not have to register for the draft and why circumcisiion is only illegal for women in the US. And why are statuatory rape laws only enfored on men? Why are men given far more prison time for the same crimes women commit?
The idea that only women can legally change their names in marriage is absurd — maybe no man would ever WANT to change is surname, but he should have the right to. It’s hard to argue with that, esp. since it opens the door to the above.

DoBA, I have no idea how circumcised women smell, of course, but I don’t know where you get the idea that they are “cleaner”. The process and its aftermath are so damaging that the women are more vulnerable to infections of every kind. They can also lead to higher risk of ectopic pregnancy and to serious risk of fistulas in childbirth. On the other hand, circumcision for male infants is relatively safer, and I’ve read that men who have been circumcised are less vulnerable to disease themselves – it’s not just the women with whom they have sexual relations who are better off.
If you think the operation should not be performed on men, or rather on male infants, fine. I understand why – but please don’t pretend that they are the same kind of operation with similar consequences for both sexes. They aren’t. Saying “if it’s illegal for women, it should be illegal for men” is a flawed parallelism. It’s a bit like those feminists who try to argue that the sciences won’t be fair to women until the ratio of men to women working in them is 1:1.

He was doing a reductio ad absurdum by paralleling Chic Noir’s irrelevant statement that “most women think it looks better.” That is, if preferring the look of a circumcised guy is a valid reason for the male procedure, then it follows that preferring the smell of a circumcised woman is an equally valid reason for the female one.
I’m not speaking to the disease prevention angle, mind you, since the statistics are well established there. But is that a good enough reason to countenance the procedure being done automatically? Suppose that women could reduce their risk of contracting STDs by, say, removing one nipple, which seems less risky than a clitorendectomy. Would you be accepting of this procedure being done as a routine matter of course? And of men regarding single-nippled women as looking more “normal” than those who haven’t had the procedure?

Not like those battleaxe-looking ugly polygamous wives you usually see. They were really stylish.

The inner city guys who have kids with many different women

Jewish women have a stereotype for being obsessed with money and status, so they’ll only date beta males who have the potential of high-income. It allegedly explains why many non-religious Jewish males in New York Metro will frequently date outside of the “tribe”.

One of the interesting facts that one learns when a loved one has a hematological cancer is that those of African descent tend to have weaker immune systems than whites and Asians. I suspect that may play a role in terms of infection rates of various STDs and by extension, cervical cancer which is caused from a virus.

Because you have to approach the women. Women like to show of their goods, but then they passively wait for men to approach them. Very few women activevley chase men. They only send signals that they are interested. Iy you don’t chase the pussy and harras a lot of females, you won’t get any sex. You are decent looking by the way, so it’s up to you.
By the way, the destruction of the family unit is feminisms fault, not mine. The modern black family shows the feminist family. A woman with children fathered by differet men, where stepfathers continuously move in and out, and males have no commitment to their children. That’s matriarchy in reality. Whites have good inmune systems against the flu, but I’m not sure you can extend that to cancer. Whites definitively manage alcohol, suggar and fat better than any other race. Idians and Asians get alcohlic and diabetic very fast if they start to consume western amounts of alcohol and sugar, and also suffer heart attacks much more than whites. Blacks have higher tolerance to alcohol, fat and suggar, but not as much as whites.

The modern black family shows the feminist family.
Allegedly, from what I’ve read in my friend’s anthropology texts, it seems that white and Asian women trade sex for resources while Black women trade sex for access to sperm. With food being relatively easy to come by in Africa due to the lack of a winter season, black women had no need for men to provide resources, while their counterparts in Asia and Europe had needed men to protect them from winter.
If you extend this to the modern world, it appears that in the ghetto, unemployed poor black men are essentially being subsidized by their employed female counterparts.
BTW, teen pregnancy rates have dropped according to some sociologists because of increasing sentencing for criminals. In other words, twenty-something men were no longer having sex and impregnating teenage women.
A woman with children fathered by differet men, where stepfathers continuously move in and out, and males have no commitment to their children.
The proper term is “biological” father. In many cases, the fathers have no relationship with their children and play no active role. The mothers have “boyfriends” (and future fathers) who really aren’t good fathers to any of their children. Interestingly, poor black people talk of marriage as an aspiration, but nobody seems to view each other as marriage material.
Whites have good inmune systems against the flu, but I’m not sure you can extend that to cancer.
Some cancers, like cervical cancer, are caused by viruses, so I hypothesize that a weaker immune system will leave black women more at risk to cervical cancer (or other virus-induced cancers) when compared to their white counterparts.

I’ve never bought the argument that slavery destroyed families argument due to the low rates of paternal abandonment during that period. Black families can be called “feminist” due to the fact that most black women have worked outside of the home and without such labour, the families would have been considerably poorer. What shifted was the slow turn of black men from providers in their families into irrelevant faceless male figures. My pet theory has been the decline of black urban labour due to de-industrialization for urban black males. In effect, black women have come to see their men as only useful as sex partners and nothing else, and the men have nothing to offer in terms of employment or other marriageable traits to women. Sex will always be pleasurable, and children will be born at some point or another, but marriage only works if both partners have something to offer.
BTW, this is all in addition to bizzarely crafted welfare rules that penalized married couples for various forms of public assistance, and paid mothers for additional kids which ended up turning some women into breeding mills who abused and mistreated their children.

Off Jewish women and back to the topic of the post…you know, the bottom line is that marriage is beta. It’s ridiculous to look at the whole package — being monogamous to one woman forever, staying with her and taking care of her even after she gets old, sticking around to help her take care of the kids, putting up with all her concerns and so forth without regularly threatening to leave in order to keep her constantly insecure, owing her support if you do leave — and then make a big fuss about who takes what name. Marriage is so irredeemably beta, such a situation of enslavement for a true stud, that this post is just making a fuss about the color of the paint on the prison walls.
You can take that as showing the ridiculousness of marriage or the ridiculousness of the PUA attitude, up to you.

There’s actually a book for gentile girls on how to pick up Jewish guys…
If the gentile women are looting Jewish men, who is left to marry the Jewish women? Gentile men seem to view the women as short-term at best due to the nasty stereotypes of Jewish women being bossy, annoying, overly demanding, status-seeking, and money-hungry.
OTOH, the Jewish women that I’ve seen tend to have larger tits and ass on average when compared to their white gentile counterparts…
