The Hillary Rodham/Clinton dilemma: To change a last name or not?

(Springer) Does a woman's decision to keep her last name, rather than take that of her husband's, make people judge her in terms of her commitment as a wife? It depends, says Emily Fitzgibbons Shafer of Portland State University in the US in Springer's journal Gender Issues. Women and highly educated men in the US can't be bothered much by what a woman decides to do, while men with lower education have a more negative view.
