In writing, Ms.
In speaking, none of these if you can at all avoid it.

Also it is disturbing that women still take the husband's name in many marriages.

I agree that it's disturbing.

What is so disturbing about it?  Why should it matter to you?

And BTW, it's about 90%, and has increased in the past decade.

Women embracing their ancient role as property.. it is a little disturbing, yes.

You use women as property every day in a cruder way than 99.9% of the husbands of the world do.  Who are you to be concerned?

I don't use them as property any more than any employer uses any employee as property, capitalist.
Well, lawful possession, anyways.
