accepted, but what exactly is someone who labels themselves a Brahmin Sikh? what does it involve, how does it affect families?

Labeling by some one else for some exterior motive does not change the actual hence should not be matter of concern hence ignored.

The title of this thread is quite clear as to its content, such an answer does not make sense, maybe if we ignored a bit less, we might understand better our own brothers and sisters, right across the spectrum, there are Gay Sikhs, Christian Sikhs, Hindu Sikhs, Living Guru Sikhs, Fighting Sikhs, the list goes on, somewhere there is a label, by ignoring, we will always end up splintered.

As Sikhs saved many Hindu lives, it was not uncommon for a Hindu family to make one son Sikh because it shows integrity,bravura, honesty among other traits. Perhaps by making one a Sikh could change their mental paradigm in the family, eventually. The interesting part is that the daughter remains a Hindu for some reason.

As far as Promiscuous Virgins are concerned, they do exist because virginity is between one's two ears.

I have not found this domination of Brahmin Sikhs anywhere else but on this net only. hence this is not not logical to propagate differentiation among Sikh at this level. Is it building a community system within the overall gambit of the definition of Sikh?

The definition of a Sikh already exists in the SRM, what can be lost by furthering our knowledge and understanding on a term that we can now agree exists?
