If ur husband fornicates what wud you do?
I am sure beating him with a stick the size of a toothbrush is not on ur mind (that is the permissibility in Islam for a woman guilty of lewdness and even that is not allowed according to fiqh al haal now)

Women do not only get a share in the propertys of their husbands but their fathers , childrens uncles and they will always have a man in their family who supports them or takes responsibility for them even though she might be working or has billions to her name, so whos getting the shorter end of the stick - men or women?

Patternal names are a societal concept not a religious one,

i am short of time but it saddens me that people do not do their homework before becoming self glorified truth enforcers like me - LOL!
