Is this really all that strange?

Most of my friends back home did not change their names, and it rarely gets questioned. I was never questioned there. Here it gets questioned all the time. This is either because Americans like to ask questions and Canadians do not (entirely possible), or it is more accepted there than here (also entirely possible).
My boyfriend thinks it is weird that I didn't change my name to my husband's. I told him that he is the weirdo and I wouldn't change my name to his if I married him. Then I gave him a blowjob, as is my wont.
