You say you have A product can belong to one or many sub-categories (I think using the word belong generically here rather than as in belongs_to). A sub-category can belong to one or many categories. Then you start talking about a sub-category name - can there be more than one sub-category with the same name? It might help if you specify the attributes of category and sub-category, they have a name and the relationships to other objects, do they have other attributes?
