Example, Mr. and Mrs. John Smith
I hate this for the obvious reasons but it’s especially annoying to me because my wife didn’t take my surname!

It is the most correct way. Even if she didn’t take your name, and even if your not married, she is your Mrs. Not sure why this would be infuriating, it’s the language.
My wife isn’t my property
Then it should be just as ok to use the woman’s name as the man’s, right?
This is a question of culture, not language.
That’s a little sexist, don’t you think?
