Behavioral economics is kind of evil because it says, "instead of explaining thing to you (because you will make irrational decisions even if we deem the explanation worthy), we will use blind spots in the way you think to trick you into doing something 'better' for you." https://t.co/OEiIGaCN87

Ah, and the exception to this rule is if you marry a foreigner (non Japanese citizen), in that case you must both keep your name and a child takes the Japanese name in the Japanese jurisdiction, and the spouses name in the other jurisdictions (in our case).

I think it’s that one or the other has to choose which name to take, you can’t both keep your name. A friend of ours did the thing where the husband took the wife’s name, so this seems a bit misleading. But it’d be best if you can keep both your names if you want, surely. https://t.co/hlxMLNmQRm
