A very specific two-Higgs-doublet extension of the Glashow-Salam-Weinberg model for one generation of quarks is advocated for, in which the two doublets are parity transformed of each other and both isomorphic to the Higgs doublet of the Standard Model. The chiral group U(2)_L X U(2)_R gets broken down to U(1) X U(1)_{em}. In there, the first diagonal U(1) is directly connected to parity through the U(1)_LX U(1)_R algebra. Both chiral and weak symmetry breaking can be accounted for, together with their relevant degrees of freedom. The two Higgs doublets are demonstrated to be in one-to-one correspondence with bilinear quark operators.
