I think we expressed what you are saying 3 or 4 times in the article.

Like any cultural traditions they change with the times. We decided to write a piece on some of the traditional aspects instead of the modern ones, and I thought we expressed that clearly in the article, or no?

And yes I would say asking people from the city vs province will have a huge impact on the kind of responses you get. Jenelyn is from the province (matag-ob, leyte to be precise) so our writings will almost always be based off those experiences and knowledge.
