I was always told by my friend that people in
Person A:
He/She is a kind of person who feels nothing is wrong in losing virginity before marriage as long as they are loyal to their partners. They are more practical and more concerned about their present life rather than their past. At times girls of this type do drink and smoke as happened in Mangalore.
Person B:
He/She is a bit conservative than the above person. They might not drink, smoke or lose virginity before marriage but they are very social and move freely with the opposite sex. They wear western dress which at times will be bit steamy. However, they will see to that they do not cross their limits.
Person C:
He/She, the most conservative of the four kinds I mentioned. Girls of this type wear traditional dress and at times western dress. They too will move freely with opposite sex but restrict themselves on certain things like going out to movies, beaches etc. They value their culture and tradition a lot.
Person D:
He/She is one who live the American way of life. According to them, nothing is wrong in relationships as long as they are happy. When I say relationships it includes pre marital, extra marital, living together and marriage. This is the difference between type A and D.
Now as per the definition I know, for A, B and C, D is a broad minded person. Similarly for D, A and B, C is narrow minded. But what about A and B. According to B, A is broad minded but for D, A is narrow minded. Similarly, for C, B is broad minded but narrow minded for A and D.
My question is, as far as I know I have seen people of type A, B and C living in Chennai.
So is Chennai a narrow minded or a broad minded city?
Is it ethical to generalize things on such issues?

first of all, its sad to see the "american way of life" stereotype. I have seen that most people here are very much close knit families, care for children etc against what the stereotypes that commonly describe the values of the US. May be the issues are more transparent here then in India where such facts are hidden to overcome certain social stigmas.
Chennai for sure has a lot of C's according to what I have seen. Ofcourse, you cannot generalize it but its more common for you to meet a C than a A in Chennai. Infact the whole movie industry gravitates towards and worships C and you are not the "ideal" woman if you are not C in Chennai. There is nothing particularly wrong to be a C but most of these C's are infact big time KDs and hypocrites ... my 2 cents :)

Nice Analysis... I think the statisticians must also clarify how much percentage of women are in each of these category ... It would be a big relief for many womanizers ...
@gravx
i accept but as u said in US there are more D's than any other kind of ppl... i feel we should be proud of our culture than following someone else's which we hav failed to do so..
