I'm pretty sure only people on the internet argue about this. No one actually cares what other's do with their last name after marriage.
This post has 2017 reddit vibes. Not in a good way either.

People literally change their names because they feel like it, so I'm sure people do care outside the Internet, specially in circumstances of abuse.
Well, reddit turned to shit around 2014, so the fact it still sucked around 2017 can't be a surprise?
People definitely care, but not about which side of the family or if it comes from mommy or daddy. Most people just want an "original" name.
Its not an unusual thing for lesbian couples to pick a new surname for themselves.
why yall having a war in the comments? its a silly meme about last names, who the actual fuck cares?
Because their entire poltical and world view is based on identity politics. They cannot simply say "that joke sucked" and move on, they have to make it into yet another virtue signalling exercise and lecture everyone else because that is the behaviour they associate with being a "good person".
People online do not understand jokes. I refuse to believe anyone in real life would be this dense.
In real life people would see this lol and move on, on the internet they write dissertations about some BS to virtue signal to other strangers how enlightened they are..... 🙄

Probably anyone who ever gotten any pressure about handling last-names after marriage might care. It's definitely something that some people care about, and some people cop flack for their decision.
The joke is just a joke, but the problem is that this joke punches down. That's generally poor form.
if you are getting "punched down" (aka offended) by a joke posted on lemmy, by a random guy, you should realize that it is simply not that deep
yeah i didnt get any pressure about handling last names, so you might say "you just dont get it" but when i go to linuxmemes and see a meme about a distro i use, i dont go to comments and start a war about it bc it is just a fucking meme, same concept

I think you've misunderstood what punching down means. It has nothing to do with being offended. It's about the relationship between the person telling the joke and the subject of the joke. For example, it's generally fine for anyone to make jokes mocking rich people; but its not ok to make jokes mocking poor people unless you yourself are very obviously a poor person.
Technicallly, it is still of her father.
