This should not be under Tamil Brahmins. They are a forward and respected community. But they have never claimed to be Brahmins. They have at times considered themselves to be superior to Brahmins. In my sixty years of moving with the members of all communities in Tamil Nadu I have never heard either Acharis referring to themselves as Brahmins or being referred to as Brahmins.
