I did not realize that was farron cause the last time I saw her was on a podcast with kev and his wife and she had a fade so I understand Tahir introducing hisself twice to her cause I wouldn’t have recognized her either
I'm the same way when dealing with married guy friends. I will always call their wife and be like is your hubby there? It's a respect thing!! Especially if you're contacting them later in the evening. You never want an encounter with someone married be taken out of context
I hyphenated because I am the the only person with my surname left on my mother's side and I wanted to honor that. It was important to my husband that I take his name and I wanted to honor that as well. My kids have my husband's name.
It was a slap in the face to see that my maiden name was not on my new passport. How would my husband feel if he had to give up his name just because he married me? It does make travelling through customs alone with my kids easier otherwise I'll have to get written consent from their dad
Ummm yes the police do enforce that bullshit “ nothing hanging from your rear view mirror “ law and will use it to pull you over and search your car when driving black... been there
I'm not completely sure but in Asian culture "son" can be placed at the end of a male or females name. Its a sign of respect. Please correct me if I'm wrong.
After my divorce, I decided to keep his name. It is just a name at this point. Funny enough, the Judge seemed shocked when I said I would keep his name. He didn't oppose it either.
Keon and I had the same dilemma. Folk assumed I had bank because I had both parents. Nigga all I knew was check to check living. And I'm frugal af to this day. A sale is a brand new fully loaded luxury car going for 10K. Lotion for 50 bucks that was noramlly 100 is a goddamn scam lol. I will say it would bug me if my wife decided she didn't wanna take my name. We'd have to discuss where it's coming from. At the very least hyphenate that mug lol. As for marriage as a whole, I just see it as a commitment and a partnership. Not interested in a big ridiculous wedding. Just a dope party and a dope honeymoon would suffice.
Why are two of my best female friends living in Cali. #imnotastalkeroracreeperijustlovethesetwosomuchtheyaresoawesomeahonedaywewillmeetandcontinueourfriendshipgirlpowerhbhm
I think you should do podcast on wedding rings? Is it really necessary to have one and doesn't really have to be diamond who started this ritual of the Ring on a woman's hand it has always been men's ring the way that that start.? This podcast was Great loved every minute of it.
I love this podcast but Tahir gotta work on cutting off Farren & derailing the entire convo. It makes it hard to follow & we only get like 15 min on the actual topic of the video. *(To be clear this is constructive criticism from a place of love & wanting to see y’all succeed)*
At 29:45 I noticed how simpler things are in the western culture when it comes to a child’s surname when they’re born. In African culture, specifically South African, if the parents aren’t married, the father has to pay “damages” to the mother’s family for basically impregnating their daughter without marrying her first, in order for the child to take his surname. Otherwise, the child takes the mother’s surname by default.
@David Europe I can imagine. I was referring more to an additional layer of complexity that our culture can add. And this is with everything we do. Not just naming our children. Not to minimise your experience. I was just highlighting something that I realised black people in the west don’t have to deal with.
I went through hell with my son's last name to the point where she said she regretted giving him my last name. It may seem simple, but the emotional trauma stuff like this can cause is very real.
The reason married women have | continue to take their husband's name: Genesis 3:16 "To the woman He said, "...your desire (longing, craving) will be for your husband...”
iHate that group chat shit toooo! Nooooooo THAT shit doesn’t work cuz when you silence the chat you STILL get the alllll the FUCKING pointless assss notifications ‼️
I had an issue with people saying my last name I know it’s long but sound it out Al- Va- Ren- Ga; I am not asking for it to be said in Spanish. I would get Alvarenjeeah, Alvarenjay like it’s a g and a gah 🙄🙄
Ok so I haven’t seen the first part of this it started with butt butt (KevOnStage voice) and I was like unmmm what ! But still funny. These couples are beautiful 💙
I love this convo! I learned so much. Our names are so important. I lean more on do what makes you feel good about how you show up in the world. If your name precedes you, in a negative way, change it. If it’s unique like Tahir, Farren, Caridad, or Keon Poleeeeee (lol), then keep it !
Again perfect point, everything goes to the man's name until kids. America only country that criminalizes fatherhood. Glad to have this episode y'all are so fun!!!
Running the A/C DOES burn more gas. I think what Keon is talking about is the comparison between riding with all the windows down at highway speeds (creates more drag and burns more gas) vs riding at highway speed with the windows up while running the AC (less drag but putting a bit more strain on the engine running the AC) they tend to level out fuel consumption but notice this is at highway speeds... ride around the city with AC will definitely burn more gas. There's more to it but I don't want to completely nerd out because nobody cares 🤣🤣🤣
Hey Farren!!! Great show!!! I've heard people say they just didn't want to be the only person in the house with a different name. I really didn't care but when we got married I changed my name more because it was just the next step in the paperwork and it makes it easier when I handle hubby's business for him.
Me: Pulls out the now stale bag of Hot Cheetos whose seal was breached 4⃣ days ago, thanks to Tahir's tricky trick of a teaser. Also me: crunch* crunch* 🤔"Still Good" 😁
