Qwerts ,I think Ash or Deepika certainly want "middle" middle class tag . you know the kind who works in India and abroad but still lives with parents, wears whatever is required by their bosses, have boyfriends and talk about them unabashedly and finally settle down into marital bliss.
You forgot to add "have a school in a remote town named after them" 
right .. marry well and have sasurji do the rest..

ho ho ho... no its not oxymoron - its the reality... there might be some exceptions but if anything is holding on to the values its the middle class.. like i said there is no need for any other class to hold on to it...Also I dont know whats Middle class, upper middle , lower middle.. i am slightly confused with these many distinctions.
me too. gets confusing.
i think the middle class too has it's own pecking order. someone higher class someone lower class. and some average class
I don't know about other states or countries. here the lower middle class constitues a family with one or two persons having some job or doing some faming . The persons who has more land and properties and all of the adult persons having comparatively good job/business constitutes middle middle class. And upper middle class is the so called rich but not rich enough to get into the high class living. But except a part of the upper middle class, all others are still upholding the values.
In middle class, even now, extra marital affairs and ;ive in relationships are very rare and if there is it is a news. But in lower and high class it is not a problem. consuming liquour is very high in these two strata of society Latenight parties and all associate evils are not accepted by the middle class.

@bold- true. but it aint always for lack of wanting. they are often limited by lack of suitable options in that regard.

Nitaji, In all classes I believe the desire to copulate and that too with a loved one is same..the percentage of alcoholics in all classes is probably the same. It is like Qwerty said the lower class cannot afford to hold onto morals and some not all rich neglected souls resort to drugs and/or sex.

It is true middle class kids attracted to hi-fy life changing the morale and life style.
Not so rare any more, and it's not news because they are not worthy of being hounded by the media.
They may not be accepted by the middle-class (although the scenario is changing quite rapidly) but it's happening and there's no denying it. If there are "middle class values", they are being eroded.
Like it was stated earlier - there are only good values and bad values.
