I agree with MsA. I think that taking my (future, currently imaginary) husband's name would be another way to symbolically become a part of his family. (I'm leaning towards either adding his name to the end of mine, or finding some other way to keep my last name for professional uses only. -- So I'd probably be Mrs. DancingNeko MyLastname Hislastname.)
Of course, I'd also be open to him taking my last name (Mr. FutureHusband MyLastName HisLastName or Mr. FutureHusband HisLastName MyLastName) but that's just me 
I would like us to share a last name.
-----
The legalities/confusion for children whose parents keep their individual last names doesn't bother me right now. I'm used to having a child with one name and the parent with another last name. It does get a bit confusing at times, but it's not a biggy to me.
For those couples, there are different ways of doing it: I know of one couple who used one surname for a middle name -- so Mr. X and Ms. Y had a child named Tina Y X. I know of another couple who combined their last name for their child's last name -- Mr. Nelson and Ms. Van Hatten children's last name is Van Nelson.
Hyphenation doesn't bother me either. I'd guess that when those children marry, they'll deal with it on their own.

Yeah I don't mind the idea of the guy taking the woman's name if she needs to keep it for professional reasons and he has no reason to keep his name. I guess I'm just not attached to my last name at all and I don't really have any strong feelings about it.

Busy morning. Arranging travel sucks. Kinda pissed that I got denied a training earlier this year that cost a few hundred dollars whhile the travel/training I am arranging is for over four grand and is for a violence prevention/intervention conferance in SoCal that I don't really see as neccessary.

Okay, a little bit pissed now. Hate to drag politics into this place but I'm sure some of you will understand why I'm so pissed off after reading this post on another forum.

Extremes are bad mmmmkay? I highly doubt there will be a gun collection in this country. Both parties seem to have an extreme view on the subject.
I personally don't understand the infatuation some people have with guns. I've never owned a gun and don't particularly want to own a gun. Killing a living animal is far from a turn on for me. I've only fired guns once at a shooting range and it really didn't do anything for me.
I think people should be allowed to own guns for self defense but I don't see any need for people to have high powered weaponry. Armor piercing bullets? Really? Sniper rifles that are accurate up to a mile away? AK-47s? Have any of you ever been in a situation where you needed one of these weapons to defend your home? I feel that hand guns are plenty to defend yourself from a robber. If they really start upping the stakes then we can always re-evaluate.

1)I have been in the situation to defend myself with such weaponry both literally and figuratively.
2)The rule to a handgun (because their effectiveness is not a great as some think) is that it is used to get a person back to their long gun in a fight.
3)Having been on both ends of the gun more times than I like really made me believe that I will never be outgunned by choice ever again.
Not everyone lives in an urban area where the Law Enforcement lives literally right next door. The ak-47 is a very misunderstood weapon and is no more lethal than many sporting arms on the shelf. Misconceptions are really fueling the fire in these surfacing situations. I'm mostly astounded at the people who live with domestic terrorists on a daily basis and choose to disarm the common man rather than to defend themselves from the criminal. If gun grabs happen violence against common people WILL get worse.
