    495495.. admonition:: Why ``__unicode__()`` and not ``__str__()``?
    496496
    497         If you're familiar with Python, you might be in the habit of adding
    498         ``__str__()`` methods to your classes, not ``__unicode__()`` methods.

    499499    We use ``__unicode__()`` here because Django models deal with Unicode by
    500500    default. All data stored in your database is converted to Unicode when it's
    501501    returned.

    503         Django models have a default ``__str__()`` method that calls ``__unicode__()``
    504         and converts the result to a UTF-8 bytestring. This means that ``unicode(p)``
    505         will return a Unicode string, and ``str(p)`` will return a normal string,
    506         with characters encoded as UTF-8.

    509         methods to your models. With any luck, things should Just Work for you.
