My name is hypenated, not as some kind of feminist statement, but because I made a mistake. When the judge handed me the pen and said "sign here" I did.......and then realized I had signed it the same way I had been signing my name for 37 years and had to add my new last name.

Why that's kinda silly and endearing...

You are not a "hyphenated-american" and don't deserve a beating....

The rest of them do. I've never, in my life, met a hyphenated-woman I didn't want to beat.

And that goes double for my ex's divorce lawyer!

It's a true story.......that is exactly what happened.

But as I said, I don't use it except when signing tax returns!!! I am proud to me called Mrs. hislastname.
