I kept my maiden name, too.

One comment: I think most of the Chinese women don't change to our
husband's last name. So, my husband is not Mr Leung. We love to keep our

Consider orang-utans.
In all the worlds graced by their presence, it is suspected that they can talk
but choose not to do so in case humans put them to work, possibly in the
television industry. In fact they can talk. It's just that they talk in
Orang-utan. Humans are only capable of listening in Bewilderment.
