A short basic overview: There are two different things in umbraco: Users and members, Users are for the Umbraco backend. Members you can use for a password protected frontend.
To protect a site in frontend you can select the corresponding content node in backend and click on "Public access". Now you can choose between "Single user protection" and "Role based protection". If you use "Role based protection" then your member must have a specific member group.
You can read and use the member properties i.e. with the MemberService (http://our.umbraco.org/documentation/Reference/Management-v6/Services/MemberService). There are a MemberTypeService and MemberGroupService, too.
As per your last post i have added login snippet and created the MACRO. Later on i have added that macro to my template and it's shows the Login screen with "Username && Password".
Now i enter any username && password and click on "Login" button then where it validates the user name and password. In some SQL Tables or in Umbraco -> Members ?
Another thing, i have added login / register member snippet in "Partial View Macro" and i think i can customize the the ".cshtml" file, the main thing here is , suppose for "Register Member", currently it provides me "Username, Email, Password" Now i need user enter their birth date, sex etc during registration. So how to customize the "Model (registermodel)". Because once i have these properties "birthdate, sex" etc in model then only i can use it in my ".cshtml" in view.
the umbraco membership provider based on the standard .net membership provider. All data from member section is saved in any sql tables of your umbraco database.
You can add properties to your member in the same way as you add properties to document types. You can add member types in member section and add custom properties to your member type(s). If you have add one ore more custom properties you see in info tab of your member type a table with your custom properties. Here you can select the "Member can edit" checkbox. If you save now and reload your register form in frontend the form shows automatically input fields for your new custom properties without changes in .cshtml.
As per your last post , i have added two properties "Birthdate with DatePicker and Gender with dropdown" and also select "Member can edit" check box for this two newly added fields.
Now It's appear on my page. But "Birthdate" is display with "TEXTBOX" not with Date picker where user select the date. Same way for "Gender" is also display with "TEXTBOX" it's not showing "Dropdown".
If i create a new member form UMBRACO backend "Members -> Create" then it's allow to select the date from Date picker and Gender (Male / Female) from dropdown. But when try to create member from web page then not working.
Is website user login details appear in Umbraco "Members" section ?
Hi

Suppose i have stored website user login details in my SQL table then is it appear in "Umbraco -> Members" section ?
Thanks

There are a many stuff on our.umbraco.org and video tutorials on http://www.umbraco.tv. ;
Hope this helps

And another note:
If you create a new partial view macro file in Developer section you can choose a snippet for login, loginstatus and registerMember.
