Hi

First of all I know very little about Kung Fu, but I know that there are a lot af different styles that are not the slighters the same.

Anyway.

Wing Chun is said to be a great and very realistic self defense system. How about some of the other styles of Kung Fu are they as good or do they lack some of the realism it takes to make a martial art a bit more effective in self defense?
If some one was looking for a self defense style Kung Fu (Offensive or Defensive self defense, doesn't matter) what should he or she be looking for? Any particular style?

Hope some one can help. Thanks.

P.s Plz don't reply with "the best self defense is running away", "if you feel you need to defend yourself, you need to changes your attitude" or "all styles are great, al long as you're a black belt" I know, I know!!!!! :D :D :D
