No man should feel offended or threatened by a woman wanting to hyphenate her last name. Certainly, a man is still entitled to his opinions.
For the most part, I use my husbands last name. However, I live in a very close-knit community. I grew up here and my family is very well known and respected in our community. Thus, when if I'm sending out a resume, I'll hyphenate my last name because it makes me more recognizable. Likewise, I often do the same in dealing with any social, religous and political organizations for the same reason.
Other than that, I completely use my husband's last name.
