I happen to be a newly married woman who changed my name to my husband's. I don't think it's weird, nor do I think less or differently of anyone else who chooses NOT to. How would you like it if I said I thought *not* changing your name was stupid?

You are free to think what you want, but you may want to be a bit more tactful in posting your thoughts unless you don't have a problem stepping on people's toes...
