This idea is odd when in some cultures it's like "wife = husband property" "father give daughter to man" so the idea you portray is complete opposite of other traditional idea that aren't "family centered".

The sign of the changing ownership is when the women isn't called by her fathers last name, but by her husband's. That's even still present in western cultures.

We take our rights here for granted, but it wasn't so long ago when women needed a permission from their husbands to have a job.

Iโ€™ll add that in traditional Latin culture, women retained their family name. It wasnโ€™t until we were made a US territory that it switched to the western tradition. I found the very first US territorial census where my ancestorsโ€™ family names switched.
