Kachisbarbie:
This argument has been on between my colleagues and I, some of us insist a woman maintains her maiden state of origin (officially) after marriage, others say she changes to her marital state of origin .

To the Mrs in the house, which state of origin do you put on official forms (e.g) bank documents, travelling, sim registration...etc.?

Godmother:


As far as I know the only things that change after marriage are your last name and your place of abode. Your state of origin remains what it was before you got married.

Seun:
Here's a more serious question: what's a woman's birthday and gender after marriage? A wife should adopt her husband's birthday and gender.

HungerBAD:
The Husband's.

When you get married,every thing changes to your husbands.

But,some people use their State of Origin for things that might be beneficial to them i.e Jobs and Contracts.

Especially if those things are Zoned to her Original State of Origin.

I don't know how they do it now,but when we did JAMB to get into the University.

Those from the North were given admissions with low Marks,so a woman who is a Northerner but married elsewhere,can use her State for the Admission purpose.

PresVA:
All these may not even change. . Haven't changed my last name since marriage. ......will still do that though. .

Cutehector:
boss please tell dem


very funny op. I was like, wat kind of topic is this.

Kachisbarbie:

Uncle if the question is funny to you, stick to Romance section. This is a controversial topic amongst some married people.

sickstars:


You lucky others will not let u keep ur last name

Kachisbarbie:

How can everything change to your husband's? Is it constitutional or traditional/cultural?
If a Nigerian lady marries a polish man, does she automatically lose her Nigerian status? I don't think so.
She only becomes a citizen of such place by marriage...

Cutehector:
granny see ur topic just sounds so very funny eh, even d owner of nairaland was just amused. So stop behaving like as if am d bad guy here.
That topic isn't controversial ok.

Kachisbarbie:

I kept telling them it doesn't change, at a point they started trying to twist my views to feminism. I had to agree, for peace to reign


What more do I expect from you? Stop dragging seun into your reply, stand alone and stand firm
Are you not cutehector again? Stick to romance section biko...

Cutehector:

PresVA:
Stuffs like that don't bother my husband; I'm even the person talking about changing my name. . To him, whether you change or not, you're mine forever. ..

Cutehector:
babe see I dey kampe for dis ur thread kay... mchew!

Cutehector:
very daft question I swear. Lol even seun himself commented.

Godmother:

You hit the nail on the head Seun! This is the first time I'm even hearing that women are to change their SOO after marriage. To be it really doesn't make much sense.

Kachisbarbie:

lols
Make yourself comfortable. If you know the quarrel this topic caused yesterday evening, you won't call it funny.
Personally, I maintain my maiden state of origin, though I don't have any "legit" reason to back that decision up. I await people who can elucidate, especially as it applies "constitutionally".


my dear, don't call my question daft. With all due respect,I doubt you are more intellectually sound than I am.
No offence at all

Cutehector:
Mrs intellectuality.. your topic is daft! And I will say it again and again and again.

Don't u understand what origin means? Your root? Your father's state. Jeez. I see no reason why very obvious things like these shoud cause a debate.

alright Sir.
