“I think about how truly interesting and odd it is that when a woman marries, traditionally she loses her name, becoming absorbed by the husband's family name - she is in effect lost, evaporated from all records under her maiden name.

And on the flip side, it is also one of the few ways one can legitimately get lost - no one questions it.”
