From the Paper:

"Being raised in an industrialized big city or in a small growing town generally influences someone's way of thinking. People who live in big cities are able to observe different styles of living, culture and behaviors; therefore, they tend to be more open minded and sociable. For example, people from San Francisco, a diverse and industrialized city, have to deal with different cultures, languages, and behaviors. In this city, children are used to see people of different colors, speaking different languages, having different sexual orientations, and in addition, they need to interact and share with them."
