Centuries ago it was important for royalty and nobility. Peasants didn't even have last names.

Yes sir. I don't think the emphasis is what it was. For me, I just wanted healthy kids.

When my wife was pregnant the second time, a friend asked me if I was hoping for a boy this time, I replied "No. With another girl we can use hand-me-downs."

oh look, wireless

With a last name Concrete, I really need a son.
I don't want children right now. If I grow old and childless I won't regret it. As long as I'm not alone. More than half of my generatione is allready with child, but it doesnt bother me. I need to see the world first. A reluctant adventurer. I survived my fammilies isuess and with a good woman they can be completely inhibited. The main reason I dont want kids is that I in no way feel I need them.

Remember, drinking and posting don't mix. I suggest you have a friend be your designated poster.
