Cute. Their kids will probably beg to change their own names by the time they're teenagers, but... cute.
Whenever I get married and have kids, I am not going to take my husband's name unless it is way cooler than mine, and I prefer how it sounds with my given names. Otherwise, we are hyphenating, inventing our own, or…
Girl, it is two-thousand-fifteen. You can keep your original last name, and so can your kids. If a dude is hidebound enough that this is a dealbreaker for him? THEN HE IS NOT SOMEONE YOU WANT TO MARRY.

19 kids and no orgasms.

These people are not fascinating, hate-watchable, nor entertaining to watch. They are dangerous, arrogant, money-grubbing bigots who are constantly and consistently spreading their hate through quirky bits of television like this.
I LIKE MY MEN LIKE I LIKE MY COFFEE
DON'T GET MARRIED if you are already resentful. That shit doesn't get better with time. I have seen too many of my friends go through awful divorces in the last few years (I am at "that age'). Postpone it until major life decisions get figured out. Yes, it will suck money-wise to postpone, but in the long run, it…
